Oh no, RoseBiscuit doesn't have quite the same ring to it as Sea Biscuit


I named my 22 year old son Matthew James and he hates his middle name and hates when people miss one of the t's out of his first name and hates his first name anyway so only uses Matt


It might be simpler if we all remained nameless from birth until we were old enough to choose our own names or maybe not

I hate my middle name too. Teresa isn't so bad growing up because I was the only Teresa all through my primary school years. I love unusual names because they are original. In my family, I guess it's common in most families, but the first born son is named after the father. God I hate that tradition. I feel if you want to honor someone, then give them the middle name. The child should have their own identity instead of being named Junior or the 2nd,3rd, etc. Then everyone has to resort to nicknames because you call out a name at a family function and 5 people turn around. George Foreman is the perfect example. He named all 5 of his boys "George". Good grief.

I never knew George Foreman named 5 of his boys after him.

Just imagine if they were all in a group together and he calls one of them. Each one of them would think they were calling him

They would all have looked

Yes, that's my point. That's why people start going by nicknames because you call out a name and several people turn around.

Like my exhusband's family. Marika and Imre (his grandparents) have a son and daughter which they named Marika and Imre (His mother and uncle). His mother names my ex after her father. Now you have 5 people and 2 names. Not one of them goes by Marika or Imre, just a nickname when the family is together.

I've just had a possible why George Foreman named 5 of his sons after him... Maybe they all had a number after their names such as George the first, George the second and so on. Then they would have felt all royal and regal like Could even be the reason your ex's family were mostly name Marika and Imre. Maybe they are also royal names <--These two emoticons should both be called "Gossiping George"

why yes it does. my christian name is, "jesus" I have good carpentry skills, i'm always kind to the meek and there's at least one roman woman I can think of who'd happily nail me to a tree

Is that nail you TO a tree or ON a tree?

Sorry.

You lady are pure filth!

Keep it up, litterally

sadly i've never been nailed on a tree. probably uncomfortable,no?

Even worse - It could be a cross

You may have something there.


As far as the exhusband, he did have a crown in his families coat of arms.

Patricia - a Roman of noble birth - yeah right......... its the influence of that lot i spend half of my life fighting aginst

Well, It's like this...

No. Nevermind.

Oh Anglo, should I go and get my pen and paper ready???


LOL
