Brandy’s Got the Booze… er, Blues

I’ve stayed up far past my bedtime reading your site, I love it! I just had to comment on this:

“You know a kid named Legend will be bland and unaccomplished, just like girls named Charity are selfish, Faiths are athetists, Chastitys are bimbos and Hopes are suicidal.”

My name is Brandy and, as it turns out, I can’t stand the taste of alcohol. I’m also super-sensitive to it, so I can’t even have super-duper-girly drinks (I could detect a teaspoon of vodka in a quart of orange juice). My only problem with my name is that for some ungodly reason, 75% of the population assumes it’s spelled Brandi, as though I were a porn star instead of a graduate student.

(I got lucky – my mom almost named me Charona. This is why teen pregnancies such as hers are bad. Luckily, she chose another, more reasonable, popular song.)
