Where did your name come from?

How detailed do we want to get? My first name (Taylor) comes from old English/French. As for why my parents chose it? I couldn’t exactly answer that, but I could tell you that my siblings and I all start with the letter “T”.

From what I was told, my parents hadn’t intended to have all our first names start with the same letter. My two older siblings might have been intentionally picked that way, but I think mine was supposedly a coincidence. After they realized what they had done, my parents decided to just stick with the trend.

I believe I’ve talked about my middle name here before, and it comes from my maternal grandfather.

My last name is supposed to come from Hungarian origins, as my great grandparents (or great great grandparents, I forgot exactly which generation) came to the USA from there, though I can’t confirm that offhand. From what I CAN tell offhand, though, is that it must have been changed prior to arrival in the USA.

Anyways, names are kind of weird. It’s also hard to come up with names for people and places in stories. I don’t know how some people do it.
