"My mom named me November June despite me not being born in those months"

SWNS

November June Brown, named after a month despite not being born in either November or June, continues a family tradition of unique names.  Her mother, April, named her after months, continuing a pattern started by her grandmother, June.  November's sister, Hayley December, also follows the trend.  Despite their names, none were born in the months they're named after.  November enjoys the uniqueness of her name, often surprising people when they doubt its authenticity, especially at bars.  Though she faced teasing at school, she’s proud of the tradition and hopes to carry it on, though her boyfriend may need convincing.
