135.0. "MARJEAN" by REGENT::WORKMAN () Wed Sep 30 1987 08:46

    My father picked my name because a woman he worked with was named
    Marjean and he thought it was a unique name.  I have only met four
    other people with this name in almost thirty years.
    
    I have never regretted having such a unique name, people usually
    remember you and that can be nice.  However, my parents did not
    give me a middle name because they Marjean was already a long name.
    It is difficult to explain to people that you don't have a middle
    name and it is especially tough as a child.  I have solved it by
    using my maiden name as my middle name.

    My name is close to this, it is Mary-Jean as one word.  I like Marjean
    better though.  I don't much care for hyphened names, probably because
    I have one.
