I don't see anything pretentious about it snoopcester Send a noteboard - 04/08/2010 12:29:14 AM
In fact, I'm not sure why it would be?

Still, funny names are better to joke about using than actually doing, unless you want your child to be picked on in school.

After Joel's post about names below, I have a question...a serious one. MightyYT - 03/08/2010 11:12:32 PM 1346 Views
Not great, to be honest. Rebekah - 03/08/2010 11:17:25 PM 940 Views
I rather doubt you'll get many supportive reactions. Legolas - 03/08/2010 11:20:27 PM 1023 Views
That's kind of what I figured... MightyYT - 03/08/2010 11:49:37 PM 964 Views
That's subtler, at least. Legolas - 04/08/2010 12:03:04 AM 970 Views

I'd suggest Magnum! instead. Kuke - 03/08/2010 11:25:04 PM 875 Views
How do you pronounce the !? Rebekah - 03/08/2010 11:26:50 PM 950 Views
Presumably it has its IPA value: alveolar click. *NM* Tim - 03/08/2010 11:42:33 PM 382 Views
The band "!!!" is pronounced "chk chk chk" *NM* ironclad - 04/08/2010 08:35:40 AM 395 Views
Snow for the middle name. TaskmasterJack - 03/08/2010 11:27:47 PM 948 Views
Hm. Rebekah - 03/08/2010 11:28:56 PM 944 Views
Re: Hm. TaskmasterJack - 03/08/2010 11:59:46 PM 898 Views
You'd have to make it a double-barrelled first name, otherwise it'd just be "Yellow White". Tim - 03/08/2010 11:30:01 PM 942 Views
Her nickname could be Beige. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 03/08/2010 11:59:07 PM 402 Views
So she will be confused colorfully? *NM* MightyYT - 03/08/2010 11:52:14 PM 408 Views
Yes. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 04/08/2010 12:00:33 AM 385 Views
Sorry to be a spoilsport, but playing silly buggers with your children's lives is just not cool. *NM* Tim - 03/08/2010 11:30:54 PM 380 Views
Not playing silly buggers... MightyYT - 03/08/2010 11:53:45 PM 898 Views

Name your kids whatever you feel is right. Beqi - 03/08/2010 11:55:02 PM 987 Views
I think it's cute but probably a bad idea, she might get married young just to change it *NM* Isaac - 04/08/2010 12:04:40 AM 376 Views
Hopefully it's not to Mr. Blower. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 04/08/2010 12:07:57 AM 387 Views
This is a valid point. *NM* Tashmere - 04/08/2010 01:14:42 AM 384 Views

this. *NM* Camilla - 04/08/2010 10:06:18 AM 383 Views
Can I ask why you want to do that? Nate - 04/08/2010 12:29:51 AM 1025 Views
Watermelon Mallet Gallagher. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 04/08/2010 12:32:04 AM 439 Views
My parents meant well, but I couldn't live up to the expectations and had to change it. *NM* Nate - 04/08/2010 12:36:44 AM 385 Views
That's awesome BlackAdder - 04/08/2010 12:34:10 AM 943 Views
It's true there are some awesome names that have fallen into disuse... Legolas - 04/08/2010 12:44:55 AM 1020 Views
Heh, snoopcester - 04/08/2010 10:23:10 AM 804 Views

Maybe Off or Egg? *NM* MightyYT - 04/08/2010 03:11:55 AM 416 Views
In truth, it might be better than Betty ... The_Muted_Grimaud - 04/08/2010 02:25:20 AM 1030 Views
On a more embarassing note, I love the name Virginia, that would be worse than snow by a mile ... The_Muted_Grimaud - 04/08/2010 02:32:00 AM 892 Views
The first thing I think of when I hear Viridian.... Kronin al'Sulc - 04/08/2010 04:42:23 AM 923 Views

Short answer: No, you should not. LadyLorraine - 04/08/2010 02:27:18 AM 1035 Views
Awesome! Have fun explaining the meaning of "snowballing" to a ten-year-old girl. Vodalus - 04/08/2010 02:48:12 AM 928 Views
What is the meaning of snowballing? *NM* The_Muted_Grimaud - 04/08/2010 04:13:32 PM 409 Views

If you have a son, name him Major Major and change his last name to Major. Vivien - 04/08/2010 04:24:12 AM 907 Views
Re: If you have a son, name him Major Major and change his last name to Major. snoopcester - 04/08/2010 10:24:11 AM 835 Views
hopefully you will mary someone smart enough to stop this madness *NM* random thoughts - 04/08/2010 05:43:25 AM 365 Views
After reading other's responses. . . Amys - 04/08/2010 06:41:33 AM 903 Views
Everyone is being too nice. It's a stupid idea. And it's selfish. Leave "cute" names for your dog. *NM* Ghavrel - 04/08/2010 08:01:35 AM 356 Views
And goldfish. Goldfish handle terrible names really well. Mine have never complained. *NM* Rebekah - 04/08/2010 08:37:24 AM 452 Views
I dunno. They have such resentful stares. *NM* Ghavrel - 04/08/2010 09:26:59 AM 347 Views
you have to be carefull with the dog thing as well random thoughts - 04/08/2010 02:50:01 PM 766 Views
Another friendly but determined vote for "No way" *NM* ironclad - 04/08/2010 08:27:49 AM 447 Views
Don't. Have it as her nickname, but not her real name. It's charming but also charmingly silly. *NM* Kallichore - 04/08/2010 09:47:34 AM 405 Views
It isn't pretentious, that's for sure.... Elaine - 04/08/2010 01:47:19 PM 971 Views
Sounds like something I would do Tigr - 04/08/2010 02:27:09 PM 890 Views
My vote: no. Too much teasing. Nobody wants that. It'll be cool til she's 4. But that's it. *NM* Avendesora - 04/08/2010 03:02:15 PM 394 Views
.a serious one. Palatine - 04/08/2010 05:59:01 PM 955 Views
I don't think this is a terribly good idea, for many of the reasons posted - but I have a suggestion Francie - 04/08/2010 06:03:44 PM 932 Views
Using it as a pet name but not legal name is a great idea. Avendesora - 04/08/2010 07:34:08 PM 889 Views
I am filled with these. *NM* Francie - 04/08/2010 07:40:43 PM 395 Views
Just a thought.. Francie - 10/08/2010 07:50:31 PM 813 Views
