  1. I was named Irene after my father's mum. My grandma got really happy, of course. I think I was lucky because I like this name. Thank God she wasn't called a weird name! My parents were very sure about it and didn't bear any other possibility in mind. Irene comes from Greek and means "peace".

  2. Hello! My name is Vanessa. My mother wanted to call me Patricia because the same day my sister was born, another girl was born and they called her Patricia. But my father said no, since the name sounded like a shoe (we don't know why). Then, my father heard the song of Manolo Escobar: my little flower (Vanessa), and that's where my name comes from.
    In conclusion I have to say that I like my name better than Patricia.

  6. Hi. My name is Delia. My parents called me that because of my great-grandmother. She had 28 great-grandchildren but no girl was called Delia. She had the illusion that someone would put her name and went to me. I am very happy to call me that, and also proud.

  10. Hi! My name is Angel and there are some facts that have made that nowadays I am called this way like for my father or because I am a boy. If I where a girl I would have been called Maria! I don't know exactly where does my name comes from, but I think that it has a biblical origin.
    Finally I just have to say that I am very proud of my name and I really like it, I wouldn't have prefered another one.

  13. My name is Adrian, because after a long conversation my parents had, they ended up choosing this option. My mother wanted to put me Pablo, like my grandfather, and my father Hugo, because he was an idol of Hugo Sanchez, a famous soccer player.
    Finally, Adrian was the choice. The truth is that he likes my name more than the two previous options.

  14. Hello, my name is Saúl, I am happy with my name and I like that it is a little casual and original name by my parents. At first they wanted to get in touch with Azazel, but after consulting with the priest, it is a demon name and change of mind.

  24. I was named Ismael because my older brother wanted this name for me. The reason because my brother wanted me named Ismael, it is because his best friend is also called so. My brother was who more wanted that I come to World, and for this reason he was also who chose my name. Ismael comes from Hebrew origin and means "God that listen".
