1. What’s Your Earliest Memory?
He might not even realize what his first memory is until you ask him to think about it.
2. Which Parent Were You Closer with?

3. What Name Would You Have Had if You Were a Girl?
Most parents have two names picked out, just in case. After he tells you what his girl name would've been, tell him what your boy name would've been.
4. Did You Have Your Own Room?
If he grew up with siblings, then this is an interesting question. Did he have to share a room with his annoying little brothers, or did he have a place to himself?
