oh yeah. but the drew thing always bothered me- he got nominated for every freaking award come the choice awards season.

samuel- haha. i didn't even know they still print it!

Sonic Youth 37 07.24.2008 10:33 AM

Yeah, Drew and Nickelodeon just seem weird. I don't think many kids that were watching Legends of the Hidden Temple or Double Dare were watching the Drew Carey Show or Whose Line is It Anyway?...well, the last one doesn't matter because it was still a British show at the time, I think.

Everyneurotic 07.24.2008 10:38 AM

i can't be bothered to read this whole thread.

but i like my name a lot, don't know why though.

screamingskull 07.24.2008 10:40 AM

i spent the whole of my childhood, and most of my teens hating my name.

Now i like it, its really unusual, but a little too long.

i always hated when the kids would have NO fucking idea how to put together the shrine of the silver monkey. that continues to irk me to this day.

i for one wasn't watching those. nickelodeon mag was weird sometimes.

Sonic Youth 37 07.24.2008 10:43 AM

The first season, it was a little forgivable, but after that all the kids should have know that you put the base on with tail toward you, the next piece with the arms facing away from you, and you jam the head on facing away from you. And you've got to take your mouthguard out when you shout the password.

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 10:44 AM

haha, they'd be going "uhhadha!" when they were trying to say "feather". and it's a 3 piece monkey! i don't know why this stuff is bothering me now, but it is.

Sonic Youth 37 07.24.2008 10:48 AM

Or wasting time trying to find the key in the trees (which would ALWAYS have a temple guard) instead of just breaking through the wall. Nick Arcade was the worst for me, though. I could never understand why some kids could never find the Start button in the final challenge when they were in the video game. They'd waste 30 seconds trying to jump and hit the start button.

sometimes i would get so much glee out of the kids being taken away by the guards. idiot kids.

nick arcade pissed me off.

floatingslowly- right now i'm leaning towards What The Hell's Up Cleveland for a boy or Oh My God Hi Daytona for a girl.

floatingslowly 07.24.2008 10:53 AM

^^ genius.

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 10:54 AM

A name is a name is a name. Don't overthink it.

sobriquet 07.24.2008 10:59 AM

Does anyone actually know anyone called Thursten?

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 11:08 AM

Now that's a cool name.

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 11:16 AM

he was an awesome black kid that went by "thad". i'm pretty positive he's related to a girl i know by the name of peaches.

neither of them, though, share blood with shantasia. as in fantasia, the disney feature, with an "sh".

I like Milo

_slavo_ 07.24.2008 01:11 PM

Action-packed first post, dude.

nicfit 07.24.2008 01:13 PM

Well, if coming out in his first post ever is not enough for you, slavo!

ha ha, I'm kidding little fury thing, welcome to this board!

Trasher02 07.24.2008 01:19 PM

I really like my first name. Especially because it's very uncommon here and because... I don't know I think it perfectly suits me.

Hahaha, took me 15 seconds to get the joke. But it was worth the wait.

Mostly Harmless 07.25.2008 12:41 AM

I'm so glad somebody asked this:

My birth certificate name is Phillip
My immediate family refers to me by my Christian name, Patrick

As for spawn
Boy:
Aragorn
Hans
Joachim
Théoden

And for girls:
Bridget
Gabrielle
Joanna

Alright, the boys name are a little extreme, but it's the boy-named-sue concept. I want them to grow up tough and individualistic, and I think a strongly individualistic name is a great place to start.
Or maybe I'm just cruel. Oh well.

uhler 07.25.2008 12:47 AM

i like my name. christopher james uhler.

my last name is unique in a way. everyone calls me by it or they call me chris uhler! and there's a small town in germany named uhler.

DeadDiscoDildo 07.25.2008 12:55 AM

I like my first name. Michael.

It's one of my favorite names for men.

I don't really want kids but I would name my daughter emmah, alice, or juliana.

Wow. That was so great.

yeah i love the name chloe. it's probably my favorite name ever except for mine o course.

Bertrand 07.28.2008 09:24 AM

I'm not too keen on my name, even though I picked it instead of something funny here.
Reasons : it doesn't match my surname, which is Italian. I have remote relatives in Italy. Never could pronounce Bertrand properly. Neither did most of the English I met (Beltro, Bernard, Alberto... pfff). My brother's first name has an Italian equivalent; I don't and always felt parts of my roots had been cut off.
Second : I don't like it written down; the middle t looks like a mirror, reflecting opening b and closing d. Too much symetry makes it feel like a prison with these walls rising at both ends.

No more whining : and now for something completely different, a little game !

A friend told me how to create your own porn-actor/actress name :
Pick your middle name (I couldn't play there as I've none, not even a - sois charitable Bertrand - Josselin - désolé). Add your very first pet animal name to it and there you go !

I was flabbergasted at thinking my library pal ended up with Giuseppe Bigoudi. I kept laughing sporadically all through lunch.

Ripchord 07.28.2008 09:47 AM

If you know anyone named Amanda, please, please, please don't call them A Man, Duh! It's not funny. You're not seven. Don't sing them The Amanda Show theme song.

Because of these reasons I will be going by my middle name (Elizabeth) in college/real life.
