I got this off Tumblr; Imagine if your parents had to name you by the combination of their two names.

I would have been saddled with: Tibo, Boti, Marbo, Bomar, Bomarti, Martibo (Martina (Tina) & Bob).

I'd probably be Marjo or something since my parents are Mary and Joseph. There was a child evangelist named Marjo because of the same combination. He was named after Jesus's earth parents though. :P

Let's see

Marseph
Jory
Jary (Jerry?)
Moseph
Mosey
Morsey
Morseph
Jarsey
Josie

Eta: I rather like Marseph, for a boy.

You're Bobtina!

My mom is Tove and my dad were named Jan.

So:
Toja (Toy-ah)
Tojan
Tovan
Jato
Jave
Veja
Vean

I could probably do a few more, but I'll leave it at this. Personally I like Tovan the best.
