I thought my name was lame!
I thought David was such a boring name. Maybe not as common as other names but not something spectacular. I wasn't named after anyone in my family or anything like that. I know that my first name comes from many different languages and it has some biblical factor. What I didn't know is that it means "Beloved". This just got awkward. I never really question people's love for me. I know that my family loves me and i know love is distilled into other things. I consider myself a "likable" person. I'm easy going but on the other hand everyone can have things they don't like about themselves. My middle name, Joseph, is like my first name in that it has biblical influences. There is no real meaning behind it. My last name was so surprising. I can't believe I never did this before. My last names comes from the name "Pero" which in spanish means the "Rock" of the church. It comes from the apostle Simon. The names is derives from a jewish name of the rock "Peres". This name was brought to Spain during the crusades and then brought to the Americas. This name was changed over time to the common name of Perez. My entire name has some type of religious implication. I don't consider myself religious but I respect what it stands for, and I have a new view on my names.
