Tony

 Tony, always thought why my parents given me this name.Atlast i found the secret, mom was a big fan of Tony Greig ( former British cricketer). But i dont know how many times i have changed the spelling of Tony..Toni,Tonei,Toney .lol. My mom wanted this to be a pet name and not an official name. Mom still remember the day when i was first admited to school,she wanted my name to be George Thomas. There my great father became the villian. Infact they had a fight inside the Principals cabin regarding the name. Finally dad the champion. Registered me in this universe as Tony Joseph Thomas. I wondered why Joseph? From where did that come? Mom has some story. and infact today March 19th is my feast day.hmm..But i am really thankful to my dad,he could cut short the number of names coming after the name Tony.Otherwise it would have been too long :). So atlast i got my name Tony Joseph Thomas. 

 My sister whos 4 and some months elder to me found very difficult to call me Tony, those days.

So she started calling me something like Topy which ultimately transformed to Popy.And my crazy cousins started calling me the same thing. Later on to Pops, Popoos and lots..Even now some call me Popoo and Popy.

Haa...So my first attempt is successful...
