We're Filipino, but no, our names aren't Asian in origin, they were just made up. I have this image of Nanay (mom) and Dad, and whenever Nanay was pregnant she would have trouble trying give birth, so she and Dad had this strategy of inventing the most hilarious names ever for the baby:

Daddy: "Okay, how about.....Horsebutt?"

Nanay: "HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! That's good, but it's not working."

Daddy: "Hmmm....let's try....Crudface?"

Nanay: "Hoooo Hoohoohoo!! Ha ha ha ha ha!!! That's great, but still not working..."

Daddy: "This is hard.....ummm....Beiddie?"

Nanay: ".........unh, OH!! OMIGOD!!! IT'S WORKING! OWWW!! O GOD!!"

Daddy: "Nurse! NURSE!!!! SHE'S GOING INTO LABOUR!! FINALLY! NURSSSSSEEE!!!"
