I first heard the world "illegitimate" in the context of children when I was reading -- I kid you not! -- an epic romance about the ancestors of the characters of Sweet Valley High.
And I (being one myself) was nervous for a week about somehow being not a real person.
It was weird. It's not a word I'm particularly fond of.
