Professor Albert named Kona after his favorite coffee. Ask your parents how they picked your name. What are some names that you might pick for your future children? If you could pick your own name right now, what would you pick?

My parents named me after a favorite great-aunt. They talked about naming me "Savage Wilder". If I had a little girl I would name her "Katherine Addison". If I could choose a new name for myself it would be something that was spelled the "normal" way. I can never find my name spelled correctly!

My name is also a variation of a family name. I had an Aunt Clarissa and an Aunt Clarianne. My mom shortened it to Clare. I like my name because there are not a lot of people named Clare. I wouldn't change it at all!

My mom saw in a magazine and liked it, I would change it to Lily Freeman because I don’t like how everyone spells my name wrong!

I never liked my name growing up because I thought it was so old-fashioned and dull compared to my friends’ names. I wanted my name to be Nicole. Now I’m used to it, so I wouldn’t change it.
