I used to believe that baby name
Sites were provided as part of a child's school record, so they would have to write an essay starting with something like 'my name is Catherine Leigh, my friends call me Katie as a nickname, my mum and dad call
Me Kate, and I am hoping to go to uni when I'm older. Hahaha 😆

When I was in middle school there was a kid in one of my classes named Christopher, but for some reason he pronounced it in a really weird way, i.e like "Chris-Toefer" (second part rhymes with "gopher"), almost like it was two words. As a result, I thought that his first name was "Chris" and his last name was "Toefer". I'm not sure when I finally realized the truth (I think I saw his name written down at one point). I'm still not sure why he pronounced it that way

When I was a child I used to think that killer clowns were a thing that applied to any clown I saw.
My fear of clowns came for the first time when my dad made me look at the teaser for the first "IT" film and since that day I have been scared of them.
It was at the nearest halloween from when my dad showed me the teaser for the "IT" film, i was at my mom's house and I was getting ready in my room to go out in my skeleton outfit, when suddenly two huge clown entered my room I got so scared I started crying so much that the clown removed their mask and it was my brother and dad i stopped crying when I saw it was them but because of that im still scared of clown even now and i can't stand looking at one and it was still pretty funny to look at them getting lectured by mom.

When I was younger, I used to believe thath my brother took me in his pocket when I was a baby. (I thought that just because my brother lied to me)

I used to think that when parents were discussing what to name their child, they had to do over the table at mealtimes, so the first, middle and surnane would be like breakfast, lunch and dinner, or starter, main course and dessert, with the baby name book as an imaginary menu to choose from (you get the idea, when certain subjects make you hingry for no actual reason).

I thought clowns that had “X” over their eyes while they performed were supposed to be zombie clowns. I remember seeing one on a news report at Applebees in Salinas and being baffled.

I used to think that names with a hyphen in between, names with
The first and middle name put together were meant to be 'special' in some way, so if you wre called Anne-Marie, Mary-Anne,
Michael-John etc , then it made you the teachers pet at school, or everyone's family favourite at home.

I met Ronald McDonald when I was seven and asked him how old he was. He told me to count his stripes and that he gets a new stripe every year. He gave me an autographed photo and tried to count his stripes, but I couldn't see them all.

I used to believe that Demi Moore and Demi Lovato were the same person or related to each other because they both have the same first name
