All fetuses on my father's side of the family, including myself and 
my three siblings, were/are called "BJ" in utero.  The theory is that 
this stands for "Billy Joe" for a male and "Bobbi Jo" for a female, 
but I suspect it was merely convenience - a number of members of the 
family ended up with the initials BJB before the tradition was 
instated.
