I know a lot of people named John; it's a pretty common name.There's only one problem about it:you can easily find a ‘John' anywhere you go.That's why every now and then I have to ask ifpeople are talking to me and then I hear: “No, I'm talking to him.”My friend Anna has the same problem:
she listens to people saying her name wherever she goes
and she has to look around to check if they're calling her.Do your kids a favor: give them an original name!
