Stairs posted:The Christy Huddleston connection for sure is weird but the strange part is giving a Jewish kid the name of the founder of Christianity. Because Christy literally means Christ-Like. if you wanna get all "well technically" about it, "Christ" is a title not a name

I guess as a tidbit that's interesting to consider, but again no one on earth is going to make that connection, I bet a ton of Jewish people are called Chris or Tina. e: oh, apparently Tina is a diminutive for a whole heap of different names Phlegmish has a new favorite as of 15:07 on Dec 23, 2018 |

I've just started a new job at an amazing school, but I think it's already time to leave, because I have found the finest "English name" of all time: I have been laughing at this for three days. Also, you can look him up on LinkedIn- one of his special skills is deferring compensation. Seriously.

A knecht is more of a servant, so child servant. e: etymologically related to knight

Got a bumper crop from my patient lists recently: Marcellian (they just call her Marcy) Clardan (she goes by Dolly) Otillie Melvajean Robbie (a woman; also apparently not short for anything) Bowser Jr.as a last name Swim as a last name (this one made me laugh because on the patient lists it's last name, first name. So it became a command: Swim, Barbara!)

Runcible Cat posted:A servant of children or a child who is a servant? Following convention in Dutch (which I speak) I'd be inclined to say a servant of children - analogous to kindervriend, someone who is a friend to children. However, I assume this is a German surname, so who knows.

I assume that a servant who is a child would be a Knechtkind. E: Phlegmish, I came to the same conclusion and I speak German and not Dutch.

Astrofig posted:Robbie (a woman; also apparently not short for anything) I worked in a typically male industry with a woman named Ralph. Ralph was sixty-six years old, smoked Marlboros, drank straight whisky, and never, ever swore. I thought the name was a joke because of her behavior (except the not swearing) and our job. I didn’t find out until about three months in that her name was actually Ralph. She showed me her driver’s license, and her permit to perform a special subset of our job. I knew a dude named Darlene. He was a scarf-wearing yuppie rear end in a top hat with effeminate mannerisms. He’s who I picture whenever I see Three Olives acting like a dick on the forums. I had a coworker named Shady Tony. It was not a nickname. His first name was Shady, his last name was Tony. I just had a Lyft driver named Spindola.

Astrofig posted:Got a bumper crop from my patient lists recently: What's wrong with Ottilie? It's an old rear end German (I think?) name. Back in the early 2000s I had a patient in a nursing home called that, she was in her 90s. For content, I went to pre-nursing school with a girl called Aschleigh. It is possibly the ugliest name spelling I've seen in my life. I got no problem with unusual names, but spelling common names stupidly is, well, stupid.
