Unfortunate names

[fu manchu]

Ah.

But was he Pretty Hot And Tempting?

I didn't think so.

It wasn't even worth the joke, was it?

meh. I don't think I even tried to tease him about his name.

 

[primemover]

Yea, but coupled with Randy, which in England is another term for horny, it kinda becomes a lot funnier.

So he's a horny butt grower? Hilarious!!

There are twins here named Karlie and Kelsie...vomit.

 

[Lightning Strykez!]

Does anyone else believe that ALL of Sarah Palin's children's name are...lame? I mean seriously...Bristol and Trigg????

 

[primemover]

how are names like Karlie, Kelsie, Bristol and Trigg lame?

Names of places should not go to people. Names that are abreviations for math classes shouldn't go to people.

You shouldn't name your kid Yorkshire or Calc either.

'Names of places should not go to people', are you serious? A great number of places get their names FROM people and based on people, ever hear of Washington, what about Georgia, Virginia and the Carolinas?? Names of places and people are nearly interchangeable I mean really, they're all just 'names'.

Also Trig has nothing to do with math, it is actually a Scandinavian male name.

Beyond that, why should there be rules to what you name things, names are usually standard words or combinations of words from many languages, there really aren't any rules. Both of my names are common nouns, as I am sure many other's are, doesn't make them any less valid of names.

I think I'd rather be named something unique and interesting than something millions of others are named, where's the fun in that?

It's a ****ing rollercoaster ride.

Send me your credit card info and I'll tell you the story of your effin' life.

There's a rule when it comes to naming your kids: Girls can get away with weird names, but boys can't.

As long as the girl's name is pretty, no one will care. It doesn't matter if you name her after a plant, inanimate object, abstract concept, or even if you give her a boy-ish name. There's a good chance she'll get away with it.

You have to be careful what you name a boy. If the name rhymes with something silly, forget it. If it sounds girly, even if it's technically a unisex name (I'm looking at Ashley, Stacey, and Kelly), just don't. Every guy I've ever met with a weird or girl-ish name has either been a class clown, a perpetually angry tough guy, or a push-over.

Ethnic names depend on where you live. I imagine Kong Sang will get less laughs in San Francisco than it will in Little Rock.

You were named Nimrod, weren't you.

Damnit. Yes.

Yes, do not name your boy Sally, Penisenjoyer, Girlyguy or Futureprison***** and you're all set.

But damn, have some originality.

I am going to name my first son Jupiter.

I am going to name my first son Jupiter.

Really? The fact that you want to name him after a Greco-Roman god isn't even the worst part. It's that you're using the Roman name.

Go with Zeus.

 

[Mutagen]

I wouldn't go with neither, but if I had to choose I'd pick Jupiter over Zeus.

If it had to be a Greek god I'd go with Cratos, or Thanatos.

That said, I would name my child after a god anyways.

I prefer Jupiter, less obvious.

I have a friend named Thor, his brother is named Odin.
