do you like your name?

[zorra_chiflada]

i don't like my name. it's not cool. it's like the name of an aunt or someone from the 50s or a secretary or something. and you can't modify it into anything cool either.

[camo]

MARK

You can't really modify mine either but I'm cool with it.

[trailerprincess]

What is it? Or is that a secret?

I kind of don't mind my name. My dad wanted to call me Daisy which also would have been cool. I prefer my sister's name (Alex - short for Alexandria)

[Freebasser]

It's ok. I go through periods of not liking it and then thinking it's ok again.

It was a bit unique when I was growing up, but every man and his dog are calling their kids/pups Aidan now, and only 23% of them can spell it correctly. Added to that, the fact that half the people I've ever met haven't bothered to take it in and simply called me Adrian instead infuriates me more than anything else.

Ugh, I hate it again now.

[Lex Diamonds]

zorra, you should call yourself Big Suze.

My name is OK I suppose. I hate when people call me Pat though, that's the gayest name ever.

[Freebasser]

St. Patty's Day! LOLZ

[icy manipulator]

i would've preferred something more exotic than patrick. my dad wanted to call me Giacomo but i think i would've changed that as soon as i legally could

[zorra_chiflada]

What is it? Or is that a secret?

I kind of don't mind my name. My dad wanted to call me Daisy which also would have been cool. I prefer my sister's name (Alex - short for Alexandria)

susan. and i hate it being shortened to "sue," or "suzie" or "suse," the only one i will tolerate is "sen"

[icy manipulator]

zorra, you should call yourself Big Suze.

My name is OK I suppose. I hate when people call me Pat though, that's the gayest name ever.
i'm the other way round. i fucking hate it when ppl call me paddy

[zorra_chiflada]

Haha that's the worst of them all.

it's the least, like, girly sounding. i'm not girly. a gender ambiguous name would do me just fine.

[-T-]

I'm fine with my name.

[camo]

susan. and i hate it being shortened to "sue," or "suzie" or "suse," the only one i will tolerate is "sen"

I think suzie is kinda cute for a name

[zorra_chiflada]

I think suzie is kinda cute for a name

it is the least appropriate name for me possible

[Yeti]

It's ok. I go through periods of not liking it and then thinking it's ok again.

Nice to know.

The name can be spelled----- Aidan or Aiden?
Thanks for making me feel good this morning.

[Freebasser]

Aodhan is the Irish spelling, Aidan is the English spelling.

Dem da facts (y)

[na§tee]

the fact that half the people I've ever met haven't bothered to take it in and simply called me Adrian instead infuriates me more than anything else.
:(

hah! ahahah! hah... ahaha! :(

claire. it's a fat chick's name :( i know so because dude from the breakfast club said so! hahah. a friend at school, he made me a mixtape and the audio clip from that scene was at the beginning. haaha. yeah, THANKS ALASDAIR! (y)

i think it is phat with vowels. cclllaaaiiirreee. people, do you say it with one syllable, or two? like, claaaire. or clay-errhh. go on. say my name. SAY MY MOTHERFUCKING NAME! haha. er. </sexual tourettes>

nothing really i can do about it, i guess.

my favourite names are morgan and regan. king lear ftw.

[Yorkshire~Rose]

I like my name - Katy.


Most people assume it's a shortened version of Elizabeth and insist on asking me if it is so. Then say "huh, that's unusual. Just Beth."


A lot of people ask me if my name is short for Katherine or Kathleen (it isn't)

My parents had a big hoo ha when they registered my birth. The registrar initially said i couldn't be called Katy as it was a 'shortened name'. He gave in though.

The 70's eh? Anything goes now.

[abcdefz]

I go by my middle name, which I like. I'm not crazy about my first name.

My last name would be fine if it didn't link me to my parents. :D

[fucktopgirl]

I like my name, i'v seen only two people with it in my life...so it is pretty rare and unique!

[abcdefz]

I like my name, i'v seen only two people with it in my life...so it is pretty rare and unique!



...and pretty explicit; maybe that's why it's so rare. :D

[Yeti]

Aodhan is the Irish spelling, Aidan is the English spelling.

Dem da facts (y)

AIDEN
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English (Modern)
Variant of AIDAN

You are correct about Aodhan. I did research and Aiden is a variant. I remember you being disappointed by the spelling.

Common variations of the name Aidan: Aedan, Aiden, Aidyn, Aydan, Ayden, Aydin, Edan, Eden, Eidan and Eiden

[fucktopgirl]

...and pretty explicit; maybe that's why it's so rare. :D

hehehe


But my real name is Amiel

[paul jones]

yeah,I don't care really.

There was one bloke in the 70's on TV called Christopher Lilicrap

that would have been bad to have

[abcdefz]

hehehe


But my real name is Amiel



Ah. Your parents love The Little Mermaid and the nurse made a typo. :D

[mikizee]

michael.

hmmm. its not bad i guess. 1 good thing is u can get many nicknames out of it.
mike. mick. mikey. mickey. mika. mikea. and so on. i get called all of them.

[abcdefz]

Microphone. Miconaut. Microhouse.

[M.C. Guevera]

Steven. I like it. Would have liked Michael better though (that was my parent's original choice for my first name, but then they changed it at the last minute).

[mikizee]

microwave? i like miconaut.

[Caribou]

I think my name sucks. Of all the names my parents couldve chosen, they chose one that is french. And I hate the bloody french. :mad:
Also, it sounds stupid in English. Specially when shortened. 'Nookie'. Ugh. (n)

[MC Moot]

I'm Diego Miguel to the spic side or James Michael to the mick side,either way I love it.....although the spanish family calls me "Hefe"and the irish "Jimmy"....I'm comfortable......but if I had to join some sort of witness relocation program I think I would call myself Jonas.... i have no idea why....

[abcdefz]

i like miconaut.





There ya go. I dub thee Sir Micronaut. (y)

[fucktopgirl]

Ah. Your parents love The Little Mermaid and the nurse made a typo. :D

:p No, actually, they look trough a dictionnary and Amiel was the last name of a french poet, not a really well known one .

[mikizee]

I get called Z or Zed or z man alot, since my last name starts with a z. (obviously). actually i get called that more than my first name.

[beastiegirrl101]

I used to want to change my name to Kimberly because of the big sis on Different Strokes. She was a dancer AND and ice skater!!

[abcdefz]

:p No, actually, they look trough a dictionnary and Amiel was the last name of a french poet, not a really well known one .



Oooohh.... Rimbaud would be a good name for a boy.

Maybe a curse, though, too. :D

[abcdefz]

I get called Z or Zed or z man alot, since my last name starts with a z. (obviously). actually i get called that more than my first name.


Never Zed, I hope. That sounds so pretentious when people some "Zed" for "Z."

[icy manipulator]

i sometimes introduce myself as vlad just because most ppl call me that. i dont mind, it just sort of caught on from everyone from work

[mikizee]

whenever i get boost juice and they ask for my name i always give them a strange one... last time was cedric

[na§tee]

Never Zed, I hope. That sounds so pretentious when people some "Zed" for "Z."
pft! i think you will find an ENTIRE NATION OF BRITISH ALPHABET, er, SPEAKERS disagree with you on that one, a to ZED! :cool:

i actually say your name a-zee. but alphabet it is always ex why zed.

[Lex Diamonds]

Never Zed, I hope. That sounds so pretentious when people some "Zed" for "Z."
Pretentious? The only reason Americans say "Zee" is so it rhymes when they sing the alphabet song. "Zed" is the correct pronounciation.

[abcdefz]

pft! i think you will find an ENTIRE NATION OF BRITISH ALPHABET, er, SPEAKERS disagree with you on that one, a to ZED! :cool:

i actually say your name a-zee. but alphabet it is always ex why zed.



Sorry -- I should've clarified that it sounds pretentious when Americans say "zed."

[HEIRESS]

when Im somewhere that takes your name so they can call it out when your smootie or calzone or whatever is ready I always use a fake name because its easier than repeating my real one multiple times, having to spell it for the fuckers, and then having them say it outloud and ruining it etc etc etc

[The Notorious LOL]

I usualy say Tyrone

[na§tee]

now everytime i ask you for a little cash
you say no and turn right around and ask me for some asssss
oh! well hold up
listen partna
i aint no cheap thrill
cause miss badu is always coming for real
and you know the deal

[The Notorious LOL]

I would never ask erykah badu for ass....ever

[na§tee]

nah. me either. she looks like she beefs. hard.

[camo]

I might change my name in a deed poll.

I was thinking about the name 'Rumpleforeskin'

I might ask minton if he'll change my user name on here to it too.

[camo]

(lb) In almost all forms of Commonwealth English, the letter is named zed, reflecting its derivation from the Greek zeta. The American English form zee derives from an English late 17th-century dialectal form, now obsolete in England. (lb)

[monkey]

my name is pretty and girly. like im not. so it balances it all out well.

[QueenAdrock]

I don't know any other Diana's, and I think it's pretty. Princess Di was a swell lady so I like being associated with her. It's unique but not unheard of, so I like it.

What I HATE are these people who grew up in the 1950's and are so used to their best friends being named "Diane" and they glance at my name on emails or whatever else and I guess they just see the first 4 letters and then figure it's Diane and call me Diane. It's not Diane. It's DianA. Diane is boring and plain and just BLAH overall in my opinion and it's a huge pet peeve of mine to be called Diane. I HATE IT SO MUCH!

[mikizee]

Diane is such an american name, i never known anybody here in australia that were called diane.

[QueenAdrock]

Are there any Diana's?

[mikizee]

diana. hmm. yeah i reckon. def more than diane. diane sounds like a bad 80's wall st movie. diana is muuuch better.

[QueenAdrock]

YEAH! :mad:

[kll]

YEAH! :mad:
i always liked the name diana while watching wonder woman.

[Johnny Railroad]

SO its not easy to life with Boris ..... Jelzin - Becker - Boris Poporis .......


but I search the sense of the name and its from Borislav its "slavisch" and means the warrior , so since i found that information its cool to wear this name ! And " das Bo " rocks too

so the evil thing is my family name - Wieschollek so it gets on my nervs when u must spell the name so everyone is asking me " what ? wie ? " ....

[hpdrifter]

I get the same thing.

Christina somehow becomes Christine. Idiots. It used to piss my mom off when I was a kid and I never understood why. Now I so understand.

I never liked my name when I was a kid. But I like it better now. I'm italian and it has a sort of exotic sound. Christina Maria.

Its not as common as I thought it was. I definitely prefer my spelling to the spelling with a K. That's just stupid.

[beastieangel01]

I was named after a character in an 80's soap opera.

so for that fact, I do not like it.

But oh well. The other names my Mother was going to chose were Louise, Paula, or Victoria.


I don't see those really working for me. Especially Louise.

[The Notorious LOL]

I do. I like it. Its good. Dont you like it.

[The Notorious LOL]

yes cuz otherwise people would be like "now wait do you mean the Lord Jesus or Jesus Jackson, that retarded kid that eats light bulbs down the street?"

[g-mile7.5]

Nick the Dick, what movie was that from?

[JesusChrist]

Truthfully my name isn't even Jesus. I just call myself that here so you know who I am. My real name is Yeshua. Its true. Look it up.

[QueenAdrock]

I was named after a character in an 80's soap opera.

so for that fact, I do not like it.

Don't feel bad, Brett was named after some TV show called Maverick.

ahahahha

[The Notorious LOL]

HEY EVERYBODY GATHER ROUND JESUS JACKSONS GONNA EAT SOME LIGHT BULBS AGAIN

[Yeti]

I'm fine with my name. I would prefer Steve or Stephen/Steven though.

Joel reminds me of Risky Business. Joel get off the babysitter!

[Rock]

When I was younger I didn't like my name because people couldn't pronounce it, even though its easy. It sort of got embarrassing for me. But as I got older and turned about 15 or 16 I started liking it. Now I don't even think about it.

[Big Gus]

My name is Angus. I dont mind it. It's allowed me to sex easilly impressed foreign girls so mustnt grumble.

[cosmo105]

no. it's really common, and doesn't really suit me. people are always calling me Jennifer - i also get Vanessa a lot :confused: and the name i used to wish i had is the name of one of my boyfriend's exes, so i can't even hold on to that anymore. :mad:

[abcdefz]

Something that's funny is that, wherever I've lived, if someone calls me by the wrong name, it's always the name of the brother I look(ed) most like. (He's not aging too well, so we don't look so much alike anymore.)

But that's weird. Our names aren't similar, and I'm also talking about people who've never even met or heard of him. Just out of the blue, calling me "Greg."

Weird.

[Yorkshire~Rose]

There was one bloke in the 70's on TV called Christopher Lilicrap

that would have been bad to have

Wow - that name is a blast from the past!

Odd names from my class at school (surnames) - Gilhooley and Fishwick.

[Deep_Sea_Rain]

I'm very happy with my name. It's not a common name, which I dig.

[kleptomaniac]

it's a good thing my parents named me dana, because that's what everyone calls me! (y)

[TOY]

I guess Sarah isn't all bad, but it's plain. Sarah; Plain and Fat.


I wish I had a cool name like Sue, or Dina (not the German way), or my sister's name Lee (I should've been fucking Lee – the Asian stuff, rai?).


I absolutely hate the names:

∙ Lisa
∙ Tiffany
∙ Vicky

[-T-]

But what is your name?!?!

Troy(lb)

[g-mile7.5]

Nick the Dick, what movie was that from?

Bachelor Party idiot

[ggirlballa]

allegedly i was named by my cousin carlos who was at the hospital and told my mom she should name me Denise....why? i have no idea.

[Lyman Zerga]

im ok with stephanie, steph, stef, stoffel.. but i hate the name steffi to death

my mum called me fanny when i was a kid

[Lex Diamonds]

There are tons of people in Spain and other latin countries called Jesus, what you fools talkin' bout?

Aint you seen The Big Lebowski?

[Helvete]

My name is good.

[hitmonlee]

It's ok. I go through periods of not liking it and then thinking it's ok again.
that's my ex's name, i think its a really nice name. it doesn't remind me of my ex, it reminds me of aidan on sex and the city, and aidan was lovely :) it really annoyed me how everyone insisted on spelling it aiden, even after i clearly typed it with an a, they would type it with an e. even after i made my housemate spell it correctly on an important document, she spelt it wrong for the rest of the time. i dunno, i think spelling people's names wrong is disrespectful.

aaaanyway, i like my name. it's amy. i think it looks nice, as in the letters. sort of balanced with the big a and the y.

i'm lucky in that it's a common name, but not many people in my year/school/friend groups had it, so its pretty "me". i don't really like it in an american accent though, reminds me of blonde cheerleaders on tv. i also am not a fan of the shortened versions "ame" or "ames". but you know, australians don't like to use more than one syllable so yeah...

i'm happy i didn't score the other names considered for me... jessica and louise. i'm not a fan of louise (i think because the shortened version sounds like slang for a toilet) and jessica is so fucking common i can't bear it. nice name though.

i am kind of annoyed they chose to make up a name for my brother, and just choose a regular one for me. boo. oh and no middle name (hippy parents). my grandmother disapproved of names like amy and sarah, she said they were slave names.

[AdRockGRL]

I definately hate my name...

[Junker]

I like mine and now its a kinda known name because of Rodrigo Santoro's character in Lost.

[icy manipulator]

Don't feel bad, Brett was named after some TV show called Maverick.

ahahahha
my best friend and her sister have common sounding names, but both of them are named after characters from Doctor Who. very few ppl know that, hahaha

[Tompz]

i like my name ok

its from the bible and it aint jesus or judas
my last name is of central european origin

[BangkokB]

My parents were both teachers and they didn't want to name me after any shithead students

My name is Edward

[Dorothy Wood]

my name is boring and associated with too many people and things. it wasn't a very popular name where I was born though. In colorado, I didn't know a single person with my name. when I got to middle school in michigan, there were 5 other girls with my name in my homeroom.

clarkson
ripa
osbourne


my last name is equally generic, but at least in a better way as it is associated with burt, cigarettes, and aluminum foil. and my step-mother's name is deb! ha, I just realized that.

[fucktopgirl]

i think Dorothy suit you good.... i dont picture you as a Kelly!!

[bobaratt]

susan. and i hate it being shortened to "sue," or "suzie" or "suse," the only one i will tolerate is "sen"

My last manager's name is Susan...good lord, i've never ever wanted to have sex with a fifty year old woman till i met Suzie

My name's Ryan, it's ok.
People call me Rat, and I like that.

[befsquire]

Most people assume it's a shortened version of Elizabeth and insist on asking me if it is so. Then say "huh, that's unusual. Just Beth."
mine is short for elizabeth, but no one ever puts that together for some reason. i don't ever use elizabeth, unless i'm signing some sort of legal document. i'll go by elizabeth when i'm 80. i adore beth, and i don't run into another one that often. if people hear elizabeth, they feel compelled to shorten it to liz for some reason, and i really. fucking. hate. that.

i love hearing it as "i love you beth" when it's whispered into my ear during sex. otherwise, it's weird for me to hear bobby say my name. he just calls me baby.

[HOTWIFE]

my name be LORI

heck i like it.

[QueenAdrock]

if people hear elizabeth, they feel compelled to shorten it to liz for some reason, and i really. fucking. hate. that.

My co-worker Beth is the same way. She says Elizabeth or Beth is fine, but she freakin' hates Liz. Her signature for all her emails is "Elizabeth" (to be formal) and she'll get replies saying "Thanks Liz!" and she then reiterates how much she hates that name, and how she wants to stab said person.

When I get pissed, I call her Lizzie which is twice as bad.

[ggirlballa]

There are tons of people in Spain and other latin countries called Jesus, what you fools talkin' bout?




"mexicans are mostly catholics so we name our kids jesus, same thing goes for muslims who name their kids muhammad"- carlos mencia

[Lyman Zerga]

my name be LORI

heck i like it.


and i love it
what does it stand for?

[befsquire]

underage girlie: i've been called bethleham, but never macbeth.

my middle name is ellen, so when i was little, my dad always called me bethie boo alien.

a friend at work calls me betts. it's nice the way she says it, and i like it.

i'm trying to convince tpk to change my beth SN to bethamphetamine instead, but so far, he's ignoring me. AND DON'T YOU DARE STEAL THAT UNDERAGE GIRLIE.

bobby of course came up with my current SN.

diana: i loathe being called lizzie. my last name is pronounced like borden, just not spelled like that. so, you get the picture of what i went through as a child. plus, every day at work, on the information of the day list (as to who is out), they put a historical fact. each year, on lizzie borden's birthday, it talks about her killing her parents with an axe, so i then get emails about how i don't look like i'm a day over 100, or why i wasn't better with the axe so that i didn't have to hit them so many times, etc.

ugh.

some other non-favorites of elizabeth are elizardbreath, eloserbeth and elezziebeth. feel free to use those to piss of your co-worker if lizzie is getting stale.

[Beckalina]

I am not a huge fan of Rebecca because not many people call me that, its too posh. When people do call me Rebecca its a sign that they don't know me well.

I normally get called B, beck, becks, becky, beckster, becka, becksquee, speckweed, vicky (which I hate), Rachael and Beckalina.

[tpk]

i'm trying to convince tpk to change my beth SN to bethamphetamine instead, but so far, he's ignoring me. AND DON'T YOU DARE STEAL THAT UNDERAGE GIRLIE.
you just caught me at a bad time. i might change it in the future but in the meantime i still say that i personally don't like the idea of changing usernames. you're supposed to see them as actual names. and i doubt you're sending in requests to have your own name changed.

[befsquire]

^ my own name as in my name IRL? of course not -- it costs money to do that!

:)

[beastiegirrl101]

Jennifer, Melissa and Michelle were popular names when I was born...so I am very happy with Natalie. Just don't call me Nat till we're close. ;)


I get Nat-Nat, Nate, Nat-o, Nate Dawg...and oh yea Nata.

[beastiegirrl101]

i'm trying to convince tpk to change my beth SN to bethamphetamine instead, but so far, he's ignoring me.

that's a butch walker song.

[Caribou]

Can someone think of a new name for me?
Anouk is teh lamez0rz. :( (n)
