Where did your name come from?

So this is right up my alley. I have a story.

My grandfather wanted to name me after a hurricane that hit Texas on my birthday. Alicia. Mom vetoed that. Supposedly, my first name is Tiffani because my mom saw a billboard for Tiffany’s Co. and thought “My child is going to be expensive.” She spelled it with an “i” to be different. Then my middle name (which I love) is Jere’. Again mom. My uncle’s name is Jerry and she wanted something close to that. She happened to be watching “Tattle Tells” a tv show in the 80’s. And there was this French actress on there and mom saw the name and liked it.

That is the story of my name. Tiffani Jere’. (T.J.) My last name is kinda a interesting story as well, but for another time.
