Do you know someone with 2 birthdays, a real one and a fake one?

[Anonymous]

I have 2 birthdays. I have a legal one and my real one. When my family came to Canada, they barely spoke English . We didn't have our birth certificates because the country we were living in was going through a civil war.

Do you know someone with 2 birthdays, a real one and a fake one?

Haha yeah a few people I know from back in India. This is for many different causes. It carried over to here not cause of not speaking English but because most of the info already stated that stuff so it was easier to just carry it over.

There was no real formal implementation birth certificate stuff through most of India before like 1970 so I know lots of people with multiple birthdays listed haha.

It's cool that you got one too, wish I did lol

Hahaha That sounds less complicated to explain then my situation. Lol I don't like celebrating either of them and I share it with my brother.

I know of 2 people.
Queen Elizabeth II has two birthdays. Google QUEENS BIRTHDAY for more info.
And my niece who was born on Christmas day, buy celebrates her birthday in the middle of the year so she doesn't lose out compared with other kids.

Yeah...my dad is like that...when he came to America is his legal bday...he doesn't even know when his real bday is though...so we celebrate on his fake one

Yep. One of my best female friends admitted to me 5 years ago that her birthday is fake and she doesn't celebrate her real birthday.

I have never heard of anyone with birthdays until now.

I'm convinced it makes you happy to have 2 birthdays - that's 2 times chocolate cake per year :-)
Would you consider it confidential or may we know where your roots were?
