The Impact of Your Name

I'm just going to use this when I name my kids: Star Wars Name Generator

Seriously though, when I own some dogs I'm going to name them Chewie and Wookie. I've frequently told my friends this when the subject of pets comes up.

 

Yeah, since I haven't been here in a while, I was going WAY back on my reading and ended up resurrecting some relative oldies.

Sorry 'bout that.

 

I know someone named Princess.





What kind of self respecting mother names their daughter Princess?

Yes, she was black.

 

Berg Frye, beat that.

 

I've had friends named:

Shanequa
Shataura
Shaccoda
Shalondra
Precious
Princess

My poor girlfriend's first name is Babi (pronounced baby). Needless to say, she uses her middle name for everything.

 

When I have my Asian kid.. I will name him Fernando. And he won't be Filipino either..

 

I know some one who named their kid Taqueria (Pronounced: Tuh-Care-EE-uh) Arandas.

 

Hispanic?




Sorry, but I'm milking this until it jumps the shark, since I was the first one to do it.

 

I posted this last year but, my friend teaching school had a student named:

Latrinkle



When my wife was teaching she had twins named:

Debbie and Deborah

 

How'd you like to have this guy as your doctor:

"Areas of Special Interest: Dr. Richard (Dick) Chopp is well known in the Austin community for performing Vasectomies."

obviously, contains NSFW language, so headphones or lowering of the volume are in order if you are at work.

My girlfriend had a student this year named Cherish My Heart. That's literally her whole first name...

 

uhm .. not really
Every name *ever* was created
they fact that it was created 1000 yrs go
does not make it any better than one created yesterday

it is all just elitist bullsh*t

It is more a Stamp on African American Culture than anything Africa
in the Middle of Nigeria, Russia, Paris, etc . . . you hear Shaniqua
you look for the African AMERICAN person . . .

Just like if you hear someone scream NIKOLI you think Russian

Rocket River

 

and if you hear Pierre, you look for a french guy.

when you hear the name with a middle name Hyde or Smythe , you think of a british person.

different cultures have different kinds of names, I dont see anything new about that.

 

I know a girl named Desire. (De-sah-ray)

 

Some of the names people have posted are just setting up their kids to be strippers. Didn't Seinfeld have a bit about naming your kid Jeeves, basically resigning him to be a butler when he grows up?

 

That's normal. Name of the Rockets CEO.

I knew a girl named Lapariceia back in the day. She had a friend named Mahogany.
