:rotfl I too always assumed it stood for ox as an animal.

Mine is easy: my name is the Polish equivalent of Kate, and C. stands for Cartwright (I was a teenager in love in Adam when I came up with it. Now I'm an adult in love with Adam, and I regret nothing :laughing).

My given name is Shirley, but my late husband made up a cute song to me changing it to Cherre. Somewhere between Sherry and Cherry, with an accent. And darls is from my middle name Darlene. I just put them together as one name.

Definitely not original. Mine is a short form of my first name and my married name. Wish I could be more exciting. Sorry!
