What’s in a Name?
Names are funny things
They help to define us
Our parents named us
Without a lot of fuss
Did they realize
When they made their choice
That the name they chose
Would give us a life-long voice?
My parents chose Janet
She was an actress superb
First female Academy Award Winner
My name is indeed a verb
Janet is a lady of action
The name means “God’s Gift”
It comes with a lotta ham
“Jan” is quite an audacious lift!
So, what’s in YOUR name?
Did your parents tell you why
They gave you the handle they did?
Does it make you bold or shy?
Mine gave me permission
To climb up on the stage
Janet Gaynor was her name
She was quite the rage!
(Back in 1939 that is! Hah!)
Tell me your name’s story.
