"All across America, parents are mangling names to trumpet their kid’s individuality." - Polidicks

I'm naming my kids Xavier and Ezekiel, and there is nothing you can do about it. :colbert:

My name is Nick.

I read somewhere that boys with weird names will have a higher chance to have a mental retardation.

Thank god somebody had the guts to tell us this. Everyone else is too busy with important stuff like famines, Taliban, and Chinese human-rights violations. Finally something important, like the ultra-significant spellings of names, gets a chance to rear its head. Thank you, Prismatex, thank you for showing us this.

wtf, im pretty sure youre born retarded

[QUOTE=Shawnald;21843476]Is this what happened with Gar[B]r[/B]y?[/QUOTE] Gary is such an enormously American spelling of Garry.

I used to know an Indian girl called Poojah.

I've honestly never found my name on any of those cups, plates, bracelets, whatever they sell with names. Alden is just such a strange name :/

[QUOTE=stone555;21830498]I hate 'unique' names. There's this girl in my homeroom class, her name is Calypso. I don't even need to explain her.[/QUOTE] As in the god?

I feel the need to point out that the fattest person in our school (a large black girl who takes up roughly half the hallway [no, really]) is named Asia.

My kid will be named rock. Because I will feed him to be fat and give him many video games so he will be sedentary and fat. Rock will be so happy.

Use 2 or 3 names? geesh even me and my 2 brothers all have 2 names.' Also im going to name my kid with 2 names Willy Johnson

I'm going to name my daughter Alyx.

My cousine is named Hora, thats spanish for time or something.

They need a fucking class in school that EVERYONE is FORCED to take on how to name a child properly. I'm tired of seeing names such as Jocasta, Aryan, Iari, and Chayse. All people who I somewhat know. [editline]07:35PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Valdrone;21845766]Major Major Major Major[/QUOTE] Get your Catch 22 out of here. :buddy:

"Forcing" people to learn how to "properly" name their child is one of the worst ideas I've ever heard.

id hate to be working in the system that deals with name changing 20 or so years from now because there's gonna be a shitload of people wanting to change their shitty "unique" name
