Ok I think there was a thread about this a long time ago and I did a quick search but didn't find it.

WTF would do this to their child??!! They said on the news this morning that one baby was also called Bison...Bison?!! :lol:

    I like names that actually have meaning in our current language... not just a "name noise" or meaning from thousands of years ago. It invokes a certain emotion when you hear it... maybe 'Bison' is a little odd...

    My son's name is Lake. Call me a "hippy" I just like nature-names.

    I like hippy names and maybe some of the names I like others wouldn't but ...some of those are just cruel.

    I saw that Tijuana was a girls name that had been popular.

    It seems wrong to me to name your daughter after a place that is known for Donkey shows. :shock:
    I sometimes wonder if they know that I'm gone...

    Epaminondas is the one
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

    Nothing tops hearing the names Porche, Mercedes and Bentley being called out at the dentists!

    Even worse is when parents feminise a male name - a girl I went to school with was called Kevina because her dad was a massive fan of the footballer Kevin Keegan!

    My cousin named his boy Xander.....had never heard that one before
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all
