CJacobs posted:That's pretty much the equivalent of naming your child "shithead" and then going "nuh-uh, it's pronounced shi-theed!!" to the doctors trying to take them away from you. I'm going to name my children and possibly the children of other people if possible Gaius Copronymus. Maybe some adults too also as well.

Centripetal Horse posted:On an unrelated note, I also support forced sterilization and confinement to work camps for people who name their child Feline, or Diezel, or any random noun from a language that is not their native tongue, or any random noun from a language that is their native tongue, and for anyone who has seventeen children with the same name, such as "George." Like 100% or more of names are originally just random words from different languages.

Pandora is a fairly common name. Also at least she closed the lid before the worst monster got out. Hope in case you're not up to date on your classical mythology.

Today I learned that Manute Bol's son is called Bol Bol and while there's absolutely nothing wrong with that I think the reason Manute Bol died is god smiting him for not naming his son Basket.

insufficient guns posted:Yeah it sounds weird, then you remember that the name Scott doesn't sound weird at all. Though living in Scotland, I don't think I've met a single dude called Scott. Pretty common back in Canada though. Yes well in "Western" history you didn't usually name someone for their heritage if they were local because what would be the point then? (Although there's a fuckload of Suomalainens in Finland for some reason.)
