It’s Celebrate Your Name Week.  So to celebrate, I’m going to do a post for each day’s festivities.

Today is Namesake Day

Today is for thinking about where you got your name and if you were named after a particular person, place, etc. Also, to identify (e.g., via a search engine such as Google) people with the same name as yours, if any.

I was named after a character on Days of Our Lives, Julie Williams, played by Susan Seaforth-Hayes.  No one else in my family has my name, which is strange considering it is a pretty popular name.  There are however, a few Julias in the tree.
