What is National Name Yourself Day?

On April 9th each year, National Name Yourself Day, a year, suggests that we rename our names for one day a year.

This will be the day to find out if you've ever wondered what it would be like to have a different name. This day is about having fun with a different name whether you like your name or not. Actors get to try new names all the time. While they're at it, they also appear to be another character entirely..

It's fun to try a new name.. For those that are often being called by the wrong name, try using the other name for size. Does mom call you by a sibling's name? Or is your name Greg, but Craig is forever being called Craig? Adopt a name that avoids these pitfalls (though Mom does love you, even if she calls you by your sister's name).
