I am a Jones. Not "THE "Jones, just "A"Jones. It's such a common surname, I have never been fond of it. Nothing on my fore-fathers, it just hasn't been much fun having such an unsurprising, predictable and obviously anglo-caucasian name. Over the years it's generated good times and bad; praises and immediate acceptance into geek-riddled reinessance fairs, odd looks, unusual pronunciations from foreign folks and the elderly, bad jokes and hi-jinx, to unbelieving hotel clerks, and most unusual when a suspicious bill collector questioned my actual existence. To boot, it also makes a difficult task of picking child names, since almost anything can go with it, but some just sound outrageous. Although, I am proud to carry a traditional name that has transcended the ages from my celtic/anglo saxon ancestors, I just wish it wasn't so... plain. I've been tempted to pick an ancestral name with more originality - some of which I'll reveal here in due time(and if genealogy research is to be believed).
