If you still don't believe this story, click the photo for a close up of the back of the U2 album called "War" where my name was found way back when.

ok, so you got this far and are curious about how I got my name, right?  here goes:

one day not long before I was born, my dad was pokin' around his album collection (he had a big one, ya know).  He and my mom hadn't come up with a name for me yet and didn't even know if I was a boy or a girl (shoot, I know the answer to that one!).  They did know they wanted me to have an Irish name, since my last name * is* Murphy!

anyway, he pulled out one of his favorites by this Irish group called U2 (some of you may have heard of them, though they can't possibly be as good as N'Sync - sorry, dad).  My dad looked on the back cover and voila! he saw the name of one of the girl backup singers and her name was ~guess what?~ TARYN!  What a kewl name I bet is what he said, cause...

...he went running to my mom and asked her what she thought.  Well, she thought it was great, too!  So, that took some pressure off them, but guess what? They never did find a good boy's name, so guess it's a good thing for them (and me) I was a girl!
