I was almost named Noah, haha, not sure whether I would have liked that. My parents ended up naming me Daniel. I wonder how much it has affected my life?? Just think about how many things would have been different just because of the subtle difference of having another name...

My friend's dad has a cool story about how he was named:
They are from Columbia, and his parents were planning to name him some traditional Columbian name. Then his father, the night before his son was born, had a dream about his own mother, who was dead at the time. In the dream she spoke to him and said "You should name the baby Wilfred." All of this was in Spanish of course, except for the name "Wilfred", and the next morning the baby was born and they gave him this crazy gringo name that nobody was expecting, LOL! Sometimes they call him Wilfredo. This is the only person I've heard of whose name was inspired by a dream.
