A Father's Legacy, January, #2 Your Name

Who gave you your name and why?

Did you have a nickname? How did you get it?

As my mom tells it, she gave me my name.  She says she had a friend in school who was named Aaron.  And, there was a TV show called Lil Aaron Big World.  She liked the name and the show and my name became Aaron.  She also liked the name Cree from the Cree Indian Tribe,  and I became Aaron Cree.

No nickname.  At best, some friends in high school liked calling people by their name...backwards.  So, some called me Noraa.  Not really a nickname though.
