161. Theo

[nuxvomica]

164. Joe. Short for Joseph

I was named after my uncle who died in World War II.

Not as common a name as you would think. People think it's a common name so they don't give it to their kids. Common enough, though, that probably everyone knows at least one Joe.

As I've posted before, my cat can pronounce my name and calls it out when he's desperate to play and I'm ignoring him.

Coincidentally, I am very fond of coffee.
