Someone in [livejournal.com profile] weirdjews commented about the logic behind pregnant mothers praying to have a child of a particular sex. Apparently it relates to Dinah, who was supposed to be born a boy, but her mother prayed for a girl.

I find this particularly interesting, because one of my hottest androgynous friends is named Deena. Also, my parents thought I was going to be a boy. (I ID as genderqueer, FWIW.)
(humorous aside: they also couldn't decide on a name, so my then-14-year-old brother said to them, "you better hurry up and pick one, or he'll wind up with a name like Bernard Elmo!" his wife is now expecting, and we're continuing the tradition and calling the baby "Bernard Elmo," at least until ze's born.)

So, did your parents think they were getting an opposite-sex child before you were born? =)
