Lauren
Apr 10, 2014Explorer
OK, some of you know this. I am MALE; nearly 74 years old. I take no responsibility for the spelling of my name! You don't have time for the veryh complicated story on this but I was born Dale and then changed to Lauren at 6 months of age.
I am told it was the old time male spelling of the name. Maybe that was parent justification...
It is one of two of my middle names. First name is Eric. Sure would have loved to been called that! That was my mother's brother's name and I was born on his birthday. But she hated his guts.
The story then gets involved and I will drop it here. But just from what I have said you can imagine it to be a good story!
I am only 0.3% of the name Lauren in the U S that are male.
That, and about $2, will get me a cup of coffee at Starbucks.
Enjoy the day, folks! :-)
