¿Como te llamas?
RedLion:
What bugs me is when people are named after countries.
Come on, people. America? You can't think of a better name than the country you live in? And the fact that there are people who have the name China who aren't slutty wrestlers makes me sick.
Fuck it, I'm just going to name my child (I will never have a child) Kyrgyzstan.

The best name one can give to their child is one that consist of a single letter. One of our teachers once told us of this woman who named her child β. Dunno whether a law was set preventing that shortly afterwards, though.

I know someone who had a friend called Tuesday. She got a lot of jokes along the lines of "it's not your day today, is it, Tuesday?" and so forth. I tend to get "bit early for the time of year, aren't you?" or "Maybe it's Maybelline" etc.
I'd say that it's made me determined to give my children ordinary names, but I've got my heart set on Mathilda and Tabitha (female twins run in our family so girls' names will be more likely to be used). I'll give my sons normal names though, I'm not a complete sadist.
StMonkey:
For those of you who know music theory, my friends were sitting around discussing such theory when someone decided that Cadence would be a nice girls name, to which it was rebuttaled that Perfect Authentic would be a better name.
Also, my name is Paul, which apparently etymologically translates to small, and the surname of Schneck, which is German for snail. Why my parents named me small snail is beyond me.

That isn't a letter, though, is it? It's the beta symbol, right?
