That is a very nice story!

There is no special story attached to my name, really. When my mother was a child, she would sometimes pretend to be a famous actress, and she would call herself "Nancy Kay Superstar." When I was born, she chose the name "Nancy Kay" for her second child.

I was actually going to be "Karen Kay" because my dad liked the name Karen, but my last name also begins with a "K" and in the South, we like monograms. Monogrammed sweaters, monogrammed bags - monograms are everywhere. A monogram sporting the initials KKK would not make the right kind of statement here. Therefore, my younger sister got the name "Karen" and her middle name begins with an "L."
