Kirby Larson: Hello, my name is Kirby Larson, and Kirby is my real name. When my grandmother was naming her children, she wanted to name a son Kirby, but she ended up having four girls. My mom liked the name, but thought it sounded more like a girl's name, and that's why she decided to name me Kirby. My last name now is Larson, but growing up, it was Miltenberger. Boy, did I get teased for being named Kirby Miltenberger when I was growing up.
