So we should call him Bubba?
Ahhhh Fiona. My precocious redheaded three year old is named Fiona Rose. With the redhair she got a lot of Princess Fiona from Shrek comments, but those have pretty much died off.
My other daughter is named Eva Lenor, after two of her great-great-grandmothers.
generaltion - the time it takes from one member of a family to get promoted past colonel until the next time one is. Unless you are a MacArthur a generaltion is much longer than one generation.
Odd. My brother-in-law also wanted to name his kid "Gunnar", at least until the kid turned out to be a girl. Hmmm....
I do like it but it reminds me so much of Children of the Corn. The evil kid on had that name. lol.
LOL....yes I have to often quote that they are a blessing from GOD. Especially when shopping with the wee little one.
LOL! Or spelled "Forrest" but pronounced "Foyay."
Shemp's real name was Sherman, and Curly's was Jerome. Moe's was Moses and their real last name was Horwitz.
Larry's real name was Louis Feinberg.
"If you want to call the baby Lizzie, Bob, Jack or Danny, then name it Elizabeth, Robert, John or Daniel. That first series are nicknames for the real names in the second series."
My parents did that. I am supposed to be named after my grandfathers, Frederic Levi and Clarence Goree (gor-E).
So they named me Freddie Goree.
So I'm stuck. I can't even use the first initial (i.e. F. Murray Abraham) trick to get out of it.
The author was making fun of that particular tradition.
BTW, my son was named after two of his great grandfathers: James Arthur
That site is a riot. I'm still crying from laughing!!!
(I had thought maybe "Jillian Rose" was someone famous who you liked... guess not... but I thought the picture I found WAS kinda funny for a myspace introduction.)
I wanted to name my son 'Gunner' but nobody would have it.
That is great. I wanted Hunter...same thing. No way my wife said. Ugh. lol.
>> And ENOUGH of these weak, gender neutral names given to boys <<
Hey, it's the women who keep stealing names like "Robin," "Sean," "Chris," "Alex," and "Hank."
OK, not so many women have been named Hank, so far...
I am in the AF reserves, I have served in active duty and now on occasion I deploy as a medic, we move the Wounded Warriors.
My request to you is that you raise fine Patriotic Americans.........then you have served your duty to the greatest nation in the world.
God Bless America, land that I love...........
A black man who worked in labor and delivery told me a couple of funny names. One lady saw a NO SMOKING sign while going into the delivery room. Her last name was King. She named her son, Nosmo King. Another saw the band on her newborn's wrist that said, 'Female.' She says, 'they already named my baby, Female... I like it.' She pronounced it Femall.
When will we see kids named:
Heywood Jablowme
Deeyenda Maddick
A freind of mine worked for an insurance company. Found kids named "Syphillus" and "Gonorrhea." I'm guessing they go by "Phyllis" and "Rhea." I once came across a Jesus (yes, Hey-Zoos) Moran. Not so funny? He was a rabbi.
