The Church of Classic Rock April 9th, 2017 - National Name Yourself Day Sunday, April 9th, 2017, is National Name Yourself Day, and it's the day to try on a new nom de plumme, a new identity, a new you! For one day a year, the old adage "You can't pick your own nickname" is suspended, so introduce yourself by the name your soul calls out is really you. The Reverend Jeff Smith takes a look at the holiday, how a particular name has fallen out of favor, the history of names and naming, people who should not be allowed to give names to children, and a little reminiscing from the Reverend himself about the various names and nicknames he's been given throughout his life.
