Fruity Gordo posted:no for realzies the fact that this idea came from you, A Bloke, is even more excellent to me than the other possibility that it was floated to you and you happily agreed. i didn't mean for the second bit of my post to make light of it, i honestly admire you and am thrilled that men like you exist. and as you demonstrate it's not even a thing about privileging women over men, it's about acknowledging where familial and cultural influences lie and will lie in the future and trying to place children in a nomenclatural tradition that matches their lived experience, way beyond basic poo poo like acknowledging that women usually are the ones who bring up children. insisting everyone name their children after dudes is the prescriptive, intolerant poo poo and purposefully rejecting that is brave and revolutionary and i dig it That was a good post. I'm sorry I jumped to conclusions. Sorry I let my fragile male ego get bruised. The house currently is infested with twin preschoolers so unless you want to babysit it's not all that much fun right now.

My name just sounds like an 80 year old woman's, which is fine I guess but it definitely doesn't suit my look. that said my initials are cool so whatever gently caress it

I've never been made fun of, people just assume that my name has some kind of significance beyond "my parents liked it".

Avshalom posted:i'm a bit simple and am always genuinely surprised when other posters don't go by their usernames irl My name isn't really poopkitty. I just think poop is a funny word and the internet likes kitties, sooo. If you Google my name, I am a Canadian Brain Surgeon. I am not IRL. My parents gave me the most common name in the US in the 70's; same with Mr.Poopkitty. There was actually a book titled "Beyond Poopkitty and Mr. Poopkitty - choosing a non-lame baby name." Or something like that.

Nocturne is a cool game. My mom chose my name from a baby book because she liked it. I was going to be Lindsay, but my parents friends had already named their daughter Lindsay. i guess after a I was born, the nurse came in and asked how "little Veronica" was doing and my mom thought that would have been a better name, but oh well! Papers were already signed! Nessa fucked around with this message at 00:14 on Jan 16, 2014 |

I grew up with incredibly common first and middle names, and an incredibly uncommon last name--when I got married, I ditched the middle name and made my maiden name a middle name, so now I've got common first and last names and a very unusual middle name. [shrugs] I tend to use all three. But I never, ever turn around when I hear "Emily," because there are a billion goddamn Emilies running around.

i often go by my hebrew name irl because greta is a dorky name for dorks but i'm named after my grandmother so i'd never actually change it said hebrew name is also a man's name because my mother is a radical (it's still not avshalom)

Avshalom posted:are they spanish names? i love how long and ornate those can get. No, although Mr. Kitty's Grandma is Costa Rican/Brasilian and my daughter has her middle name. We almost named her after Grandma's first name but Americans by and large can't pronounce Aida. Nor can they pronounce Aoife or Naimh, so she got the easiest names from our matriarchs. The boy is all kind of American sounding. Like whoa American. (Even though he's named for Sam Gamgee - well before the movies came out.) The patriarchs had p boring names. (Or Augustin, which came right off the table as soon as it was suggested.)

I just heard a story on NPR about Supernatural fans. There were no mentions of dog dicks. There was one use of the phrase "slash fiction," and two uses of the word "wincest"

i kind of like augustin  i knew a girl named niamh once but her mother was legit irish so it was okay. it's a beautiful name anyway, and at least it is easy to pronounce once it's been clarified i still feel sorry for the little girl i once read about in a magazine article. she had down syndrome and her name was caoimhe. (pronounced keeva) that's also a real and very pretty name but it seems kind of cruel to give something so hard to pronounce to a kid with special needs
