Sunday Secret



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I chose Cam's name after hearing a name I loved - the name of a one-night stand's son. I was so convinced Cam's father was someone else, I didn't even consider the ramifications of selecting this name if I was wrong. I was wrong ... Cam has a half brother named ... Cam.

Cam is a wonderful name. Even though I have not met Cam. His name seems to fit him well. You did good Dana, with the name of your son.

Even though I knew my kid was going to be a boy, I wanted to name him "Consuela" after a chick that I had a one-night stand with. Cheers!!

Karen said...

Is he just Cam? For some reason I guess I always assumed it was short for Cameron. Either way I love both names also.

My parents wanted to name me Ruby. Seriously, I don't like Karen all that much, but it is so much better than Ruby.

I was also wondering if Cam is short for Cameron.

Evil Twin's Wife said...

That's okay. I know a family where the dad named his son from his first marriage and son from the 2nd marriage the same name - and they have a very unusual last name (and the first name is unusual too).

Osbasso said...

My grandfather wanted (seriously) to have me named Hogg, and my first sister named Bird. (sound it out, it makes more sense)

Jay said...

Does it make me a bad person if I actually chuckled a little at this post? Uh, sorry. ;-)

Biscuit said...

Scooch over on that bench, Jay. I must confess to a bit of a giggle myself. *ducking*

Dana, this SS is so priceless...I love it!

Dana said...

we're doomed, it's a great name, and does fit him well. Just a case of really "knowing" what you think you know!

Matt-Man, I think Consuela is a lovely name for a boy!

Karen, no, he's Cameron, as is his half-brother, but they both go by Cam. And I was going to be Luella ... ummm ... yeah ...

Dana said...

Another Suburban Mom, Cam is short for Cameron.

Evil Twin's Wife, I will say that I doubt they share the same middle name, although it is a common one, and they definitely don't share the same last name. I guess it could have been worse!

Osbasso, BWAHAHAHA!!

Dana said...

Jay, not at all Jay! Trust me, I see the humor in it too!

Biscuit, I'm kind of surprised you two are the first to find this funny! It actually makes me giggle now!

rage said...

I like the name.

Liz Hill said...

I was giggling before I was done--too funny.

Vixen said...

Well. It could be worse. I went to HS with a blended family (it seriously was like the brady bunch- mom had 3 kids, dad had 3 kids). There was Aron and Erin.

I like the name too. And what counts is that YOU like it. :)

Big Kahuna said...

Cam is a great name - Thank you for the wonderful comments.

Your courage on Secret Sundays never ceases to amaze.

do they know one another?

Hmmmm....my step son is Cameron...did you sleep with his dad?????

smile.

Deech said...

Cam is a good name....and by everything written here..he is a good kid!

I am wondering if the Half Brother's have met, or even know of each other.

Unknown said...

I love his name, and the fact that he is named after someone he is related to is cool, excpet if they ever meet one will say, "Hi I'm Cam, and this is my brother Cam."

g-man said...

I share the same quirky sense of humor as Jay and Biscuit. Glad you can see the humor in it as well. (but not ass funny as "my other brother Darryl" :)

My middle name (it is the one I use since my father and I share the same first name) came from a boy my mother dated in HS.

My daughters name is the same name of a woman I had a crush on growing up. Not so much because I wanted to remember her, but I really liked the name.
