How did your parents decide on your name?

Before I was born, I was going to be called Raul. And I was also going to have blue eyes, and blond, curly hair.

Totally me.

But since I decided to skip on that whole having a penis part, they had to come up with something girlier than Raul.

My mother came up with Andreea, and my father came up with Consuela.
My mother vetoed Consuela (thank Odin!), and then my father brought Diana to the table.

And so they named me Andreea Diana, and started calling me Andreea.

Then they took me out to a park. And that's where they heard it.
Andreea, come here! Andreea, don't touch that! Andreea, want a biscuit? Andreea this, Andreea that, Andreea, Andreea, Andreea. The whole park was full of Andreeas.

In fact, Andreea is the second most popular girl name in Romania, surpassed only by Maria.

And that's when they made the final decision on my name.

So... hi, I'm Diana!
