A Guy Named Brook

Losing the Battle

The number of females named Brooke that I encounter is becoming exponential.  I was the only Brooke I even encountered through grade school and even in college.  There was the Brook that was a freshman when I was a senior in high school and there was Brooke Shields on TV since I was young, but that was it.  The latter didn't really count, cause she was on TV and if it did count it was an even count, on Brooke girl and one Brook boy.

In my early years of marriage I started having people call my name in public places, only to find they were chasing their toddler daughter, but those were just a handful.

Lately every time I turn around there is a Brooke and occasionally a female Brook.  Right now I have two Brookes in my congregation at church and it appears as though there is a female Brook in the congregation we share the building with.

  • I found your blog and I love it. I am a man named Brooke and I feel like I live on an island. It has gotten to a point that I am going to legally change my name.
