    COLLEGE STATION - Christine Michael, then 12, turned to his mother, Mary, for guidance about his unusual first name for a boy.

    "At first, I kind of took it hard," Michael said.

    So she turned to an example set by Johnny Cash - the gruff singer - for a little help.

    "She told me about a 'Boy Named Sue,'" Michael said Monday of the late Cash's big hit from 40 years ago. "She said I was like that boy named Sue. He didn't care, so I shouldn't care.'"


    Cash's song ends with Sue at peace with his given name. So is Christine (pronounced "Chris-Tin"), he said.

    I love Johnny Cash.
