When I was a kid, it was nearly impossible to find my name on anything. Do you kow how depressing that is when you're a kid? Carla is an odd enough name to find, but when you spell it with a "K," it's nearly impossible. Any time I would find something with my name on it, I would buy it. It was rare.

When Coke came out with their "Share a Coke" bottles a year ago, I dug through every bin and pop cooler, only to find out that Coke didn't make a bottle with my name. They chose the 250 most popular names among teens and Millennials. Sadly, "Karla" is not popular among Millennials.

In April, 2015 the "Share a Coke" campaign expanded with four times as many names as last year. Be on the lookout for 20 ounce bottles of Coca-Cola, Diet Coke and Coke Zero. If you want to make sure your name made the cut before you dive head first into big bin of Coke bottles, click here.

So, what's the reason Coke expanded the campaign, it could have something to do with the fact that sales of 20 ounce bottles rose 19 percent.
