dancerjodi1. Is the name you have now the same name that's on your birth certificate? If not, what's changed?
Last name changed after marriage which was actually a complete accident. I thought it was the SS office that legally changed your name. Nope, its the marriage license. I still hadn't figured out what I wanted to do about a last name (since I really loved my maiden name and didn't want a generic common last name . . . but hyphenating the two would be silly due to the length) so when we went for license I said "oh I'll just put down Anderson for now". Thus, Jodi Anderson was born :)
2. If you could change your name (first, middle and/or last), what would it be?
Haven't really thought of it
3. Why were you named what you were?
Mom liked the first name. Middle name was after my Great Grandmother on Mom's side and St. Francis of Assisi.
4. Are there any names you really hate or love? What are they and why?
I really like Italian women's names, and Celtic men's names - can't say why beyond "because I do" :)
5. Is the analysis of your name at kabalarians.com accurate? How or how isn't it?
shit yeah, its pretty darned accurate (including the supposed health issues - I have circulation problems in my legs, hence why you won't see me bare-legged that often . . . ugly, ugly)
