I think I was named after a common convenience. Or so my life tells me.

I was named after one of the last televised tobbacco commercials in America. Eric the Red cigars.... Apparently he was sailing into New York when they stepped out and told my Dad "Mr. Krupa...it's a boy"....He looked at the T.v. and decided I was Eric the Red....even though I am blonde...it's a Polish thing.

My father, but are middle names are different, same middle initial though. Mom didn't want Jr. or big Donny little Donny around the house. Grew up using my middle name, created a lot of confusion the first few days of elementary school every year.

I have the female version of my dad's name, Robin for Robert, and my grandmother, Elizabeth, as my middle name.

Audrey -- after the lovely and eternally classic beauty Audrey Hepburn. I hope I can be half of what she was. Carol -- After my Auntie Carol from my English side. Its a UK tradition. My other siblings have their middle names from aunties and uncles. Roberts -- I did claim I was related to Julia...that was too easy. I think its the lips. Lol The name itself is as American as it gets but my dad's side are purely Beatles Scousers.

I don't think they believed me though.
