My full
name is Justin Jiaming Zhang. It took Mommy and Daddy
quite an effort figuring out this name for me by the
very last minute before we left the hospital for home.
Aunt Jane and Uncle Yue also contributed a lot in Mommy
and Daddy’s final decision.
From the
very beginning, Daddy appointed Mommy the toughest task
of all---finding me a nice name. Mommy looked up all
kinds of references available and consulted lots of her
friends and got down to three names on her list: Oliver,
Justin or Jason. But it was quite difficult for grandma
and grandpa to say Oliver and also Aunt Jane did not
like it. Aunt Jane suggested to call me Peter but Mommy
did not like this name. So, Oliver and Peter were out. For a while, it
seemed that Daddy had his
own idea on this though he did not say much.
By the
time when we got to the hospital, my name was still not
decided. Daddy had Chris on his list and Mommy had
Justin and Jason on her list. After I was born, Mommy
and Daddy still could not decide what to call me and
they decided to try out Daddy’s choice first. So I was
called Chris for several hours but no one felt it was a
good fit for me.
Daddy
then called Uncle Yue and discussed with him on this
matter and Uncle Yue liked the name Justin and WALA, I
got my name.
