names
 
a conversation today led me to think about names. do you like yours? any names for future spawn? what's the best porn star name besides norma stitz you've ever heard?

my first name i'm not keen on, but i am fond of my middle name (jade).

pbradley 07.24.2008 03:26 AM

I prefer my middle name over first, too. Alexander. But I hate "Alex" so I hesitate to go by it. However I want a son named Arthur (after my grandfather on my father's side who died soon after I was born).

Cantankerous 07.24.2008 03:31 AM

my name is okay, other people seem to think it's pretty

my middle name, which is after grandma, is ridiculous (siobhan)

my kid will be named dylan regardless of sex.

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 03:32 AM

yeah, every alexander i know hates "alex".

aw, that's sweet. my brother's middle name is after our dad, daniel, and i'm thinking one day if i have a kid i'll do the same. ezra probably for a first name.

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 03:33 AM

catanky- both of your names i think are cool.

vegans4veal 07.24.2008 03:33 AM

my name is pretty boring, however for my confirmation (catholic mother...) i chose wolfgang which i think is an awesome name.

Cantankerous 07.24.2008 03:36 AM

random names that i like

julian
liam
dylan
chloe
lucy
piper (for a girl, obv)
kat
charlotte (my mom's name so i wouldn't rule this one out for any offspring either)

vegans4veal 07.24.2008 03:39 AM

one of my sisters is a charlotte but we call her lottie.

i like the name rory.

MellySingsDoom 07.24.2008 03:39 AM

I have a girl's name :D (It's Sacha). I really like it now, but used to get the piss taken out of me for it as a kid. Also found out that Sacha is quite a popular name in the Czech Republic too, which is way cool.

My middle name is Alexander, if that wasn't clear. My first name is Patrick. And my last name... well my screen name gives that away.

Steal away, identity thief lurkers, steal away.

me too

i also considered naming future female offspring melody lee
like after the damned song

and then she could go "i'm named after a superhero in a damned song because my mom is stone cold fuck nuts"

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 03:41 AM

ahh! that's so cool. by the way, i hate maroon 5. the hate flows.

catanky- julian's one of my favorites. he's not as cool as i once thought he was, but i used to want to marry julian casablancas from the strokes just to get the last name.

for a girl i adore allegra.

pbradley- oh, it was clear. on the last name thing, i've gone through school with even close friends having to ask me what my last name is. i don't use it online because i'm so used to just being my name or a screename. harder to track me.

julian is my boyfriend/fiancee/i don't even know what to call him anymore's name

well his first name is john but no one on the face of the earth ever calls him that

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 03:47 AM

if it's a fiancee, are you getting hitched? i'm not really into titles because in place of relationships i mostly have messes.

pbradley 07.24.2008 03:48 AM

Rory is a shit awful name. Just sayin.

Cantankerous 07.24.2008 03:48 AM

yes, but not right away

probably within the next year or so

we were supposed to over the summer but a bunch of shit happened and i cancelled it

acousticrock87 07.24.2008 03:48 AM

My first name is about as boring as you can get, but I really like my middle name, Vincent.

I have no plans for naming my kids. I usually think of something, and then hate the idea within a week. It's even worse than picking tattoos, because it's for someone else.

i want to but i can't imagine calling someone my husband! or being called "my wife"! that just sounds so crazy when i think about it.

acousticrock87 07.24.2008 03:53 AM

I couldn't imagine getting married that young. Or this young. Same thing, really.

You best be positive, kid.

vegans4veal 07.24.2008 03:54 AM

:D

my grandad is a paddy.

we're pretty close to the same age aren't we? yeah. i think you and him are the same age although he's probably a bit older, he'll be 22 in november.



weird.

haha, my dad is getting remarried next week and he told me that he got so used to hating the word "wife" (bitter divorce) he's not sure what he's going to do.

acousticrock87 07.24.2008 04:02 AM

Yeah same age, basically. And being a girl, you're probably more mature than I am.

But I know at two girls my age who've been divorced (well, 20 and 25) and one girl (21) who just got dumped by her fiance. Like a few days ago. It's terrible stuff. Just be careful, ya know. It was really sad on both occassions.

But I also know people who've done very well from that age. If you know, you know. Good luck with it. :)

Cantankerous 07.24.2008 04:04 AM

i'm sure i'll get used to it
i mean, we might as well be married anyway

oddly enough my dad got remarried this year too, and now i have two stepsisters and i'm going to have a biological sister in the fall. oh joy.
but i punked out at the last minute and didn't go to the wedding.


acoustic - that would suck horribly, & thanks mate!

_slavo_ 07.24.2008 04:09 AM

My name is Slavomir which is a pretty damn unusual name even for my country (it means "the one that celebrates peace"). But I got used to it during all the years.

the wedding is just going to be my dad, his fiancee, me, and three of her five kids. once mom ties the knot, that's eight stepsiblings i'll have and my little brother. it's just a shame we'll be so spread out, because the ones i've met i really love.

i love my sisters, although the oldest one can be a bitch, which is fine because i can dish it right back out; i don't have any real siblings (not till november)

It sounds like a name based on The Lord of the Rings.:D

Toilet & Bowels 07.24.2008 04:20 AM

when my dad got remarried he didn't tell any of his friends or colleagues, or any of his family besides his kids. and he didn't want us to tell anyone about it, and he got all vexed when we did.

my name is Tom. i'm fine with it.

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 04:22 AM

catanky- yeah, my new older stepsister is a bit terrible.

i can take or leave babies, but congrats for a new sister! my little brother can't stand young children (it's an aspergers thing). i'm so excited for my cousin and his wife, though- they're expecting a daughter late this winter. they both look like movie stars so i know their second child will be just as beautiful.

nicfit 07.24.2008 04:26 AM

My name is Nicola.
In some countries it's a female-only name.
People from those countries think they're dealing with a hot italian lady and are quite disillusioned when they realize they've been dealing with a big bearded guy.
I'm sorry for them.
I like my name, I mean, I don't care much about it actually, but I never thought "uh, I wish I had a different name", unless we're talking about the Max Power incident, but that's another story.
I think I have Leonardo as middle name, but it's not even on ids and stuff, it's just something parents "need" to give for some law to avoid (unlikely) cases of homonymy. I'll ask my mom, now I know this will bug me for a while.
I won't say which names I'd "like" for my future spawn coz italian names are not as cool as other countries'.

Erica Jade would be a good porn star name.
ha
ha
ha.

acousticrock87 07.24.2008 04:28 AM

So it's nicfit like...Nicola...and the song. Nice. If your last name is Fitzgerald, you're the coolest person ever.

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 04:31 AM

nicfit- hah, you're funny.

i've heard of other men named nicola or similar... a party photographer online i'm myspace friends with is nikola.

filling out things or doing programs where i have to go exclusively by erica is a little tiring. some teachers just never caught on that i don't respond to it.

acousticrock87 07.24.2008 04:32 AM

I should stop responding to my first name. I think it just might throw off friends and family and stuff. Also, it might throw me off.

schizophrenicroom 07.24.2008 04:35 AM

my dad has a "hilarious" "song" that is only my first name repeated over and over.

i tried to do a thing once, a sort of schizo 3.0 test model, where i went by erica but it didn't go well.

Death & the Maiden 07.24.2008 06:33 AM

I don't really like my name (Daniel), but it is infinitely better than my nickname, which is what nearly everyone knows me by. I have an alternative name (Zeb), which was given to me about five years ago by a friend, and I'm planning on using it as my stage name, though I'm thinking I might go by the name Honey Steel (from an Ed Kuepper song).
Most of the names I like come from musicians I idolise. Edmund, Alister, Syd, Thurston.

SYRFox 07.24.2008 06:43 AM

My first name is Aurélien, and I got two middle names, including Nicolas (the other one is Josselin, it sucks) - it's the french version of nicfit's name.

I really like my name
