RudiStein said:I have student named Iryna. Her mother is a Russian mail-order bride...no shtick. The first day of school she tells me she doesn't want to be called Iryna. She wants to be called Ira.She went from having a name like a hot Bond girl to the name of an 83 year old Jewish man.
Man, Bakersfield sounds awesome.
Named my daughter Audrey (she is 9). Went retro and, as it turns out, was perfect for her.
Can't you read, Pickles? He said it was indeed 100% verified true. Scoffer.
How exactly am I supposed to prove this to them? It's not like I can fax them a copy of the yearbook.
Status: Undetermined.Though...funny that Ive read the Le-a thing like 3 times today.
Why not?
Being sued down?
For what?
Looks like Lahyphena to me.
So your name is private now?
That's another one I kinda like.
Petty criminal I used to deal with was named Shawntavus. Everybody just knew his street name. One day I was talking to other local perps trying to get info and I his first name slip out (no one knows first names here). When I say Shawntavus, they all started laughing and said Shawntavus is a girl's name.
I would assume a hermaphrodite.
Yeah...that's a real name, guy.
Pretty sure yearbooks are not private.
My name is NEO!!!!
I'll get a copy and put the little black "disguise" bar over the eyes. I'm not getting sued for proving something that folks on a messageboard doubted. But...you'll see that this is indeed true.
Guy has been around for a long time. I have an older cousin Guy, I just always assumed that my aunt/uncle were not very original.Yeah...that's a real name, guy.
Maybe they just wanted him to have a nice season.
Her brother's name? Denephew.
"Nice goal, guys. Don't get cocky, though."
...and the rest of you guys stop acting like #####
That would drive my coworker nuts. He would demand that she pronounce it Lehyphena.
It's not unusual to be afraid of a bear. Luckily for him it wasn't "Afraid of Beaver".Poor kid is going to be picked on all the time at school...by bears.My FIL has a kid in his school district whose last name is "Afraid of Bear"
Heavens!
Who in their right mind with a last name of "Donaldson" would name their kid "Donald"? Marrying into it, sure. You're in love. Whatever. Julia Goolia. But naming your kid that? Sheesh.
I had a student a couple of years ago whose dad was named James James.I once issued a bank statement for a "Donald and Donna Donaldson".Who in their right mind with a last name of "Donaldson" would name their kid "Donald"? Marrying into it, sure. You're in love. Whatever. Julia Goolia. But naming your kid that? Sheesh.ETA: I just remembered that I went to high school with a "Dug". Seriously. Not "Doug". "Dug".
