    Not at all. I've always disliked my name. It sounds like a dingy cheerleader name. My parents sole reason for naming me Stacy was that it rhymed with Casey (my brother's name.)

    I think kids should have proper names, not nicknames for names. My mom wanted to name me Anastasia... So many options with that... Ana, Stacy, Stasia, Stassi. Thanks Dad

    I don't think so. It's Melody. I'm not musically inclined at all. When I'm alone in the car, I think I can sing, but I'm pretty sure it sounds like a bag of cats.

    My user name described me when I joined WW in Jan 2013 @ 376# (now 238)

    My name James led me to research it and be reminded it's from Jacob.That led me to research Bible story about Jacob.

    Esau and Jacob were the sons of Isaac and Rebekah, and the grandsons of Abraham and Sarah. Of the twins, Esau was the first to be born with Jacob following, holding his heel (the Hebrew name Yaacov meaning "Heel-holder"). Isaac was sixty years old and Rebekah is believed to have been younger when the boys were born. Esau's grandfather Abraham was still alive, being 160 years old at that time.

    I guess the Bible is like Wikipedia, they can write anything as a "fact".

    So no, I never considered myself a heel holder.

    My name means pure. I'm about 95% "vanilla" so I'd say it's about accurate.

    Hey man, don't knock it. You know what they say, "Heels are the window to the soul."

    Kyle -topographic term referring to a narrow channel or strait...hmmm I would say I'm more broad and bi not straight. :neutral: I feel like at some point I heard it meant "handsome" and I'm pretty vain so imma believe that one.
