My first name is April. I've always hated it. My mother named me after a book of poetry (real original) called "April Always."
Throughout my school years all I got was jokes, April Showers, blah blah blah.
Then when I got a little older and was working in strip clubs all the men assume it's a fake stage name. I could even show them my driver's license and they still wouldn't believe it.
And I can't tell you how many times people ask "Were you born in April? Is that why your mom named you that?" HaHaHa, like I never heard that before.
The middle name is a matter of some debate. My mom was a bit of a hippy chick and wanted to name me exactly after the book "April Always" Thank heaven saner heads ruled and my dad gave me my middle name, Lynette, which is just awful in general. My oldest son is 19 and he STILL doesn't know my middle name.
