Welcome to the first Suzette's Selena Facts clue in our Selena: Artist of the Week Sweepstakes!

Selena's sister Suzette was kind enough to do a Q&A with Blogamole, revealing touching memories of her sister.

Did you ever wonder how Selena's parents picked her name? Here is what Suzette told MTV Tr3s:

"Mr. and Mrs. Quintanilla had a boy's name picked out. The lady sharing a room with Mrs. Quintanilla had a girl name picked out: Selena. In the end, the lady sharing the room had a boy, so my parents asked if they could use Selena for their baby girl!"
