[Hassled]

Are you sure? I thought it was Cockney rhyming slang for mayor-shagger.

There's actually a really great short story by Jay Williams called Petronella which will always make me view the name as the name of a badass Princess.

[LineRunner]

Any takers for

Petronella
Julie
Jan

[LineRunner]

Is it Italian for 'On the Rocks'?

[Chubfuddler]

Heh.

What about Bryony? It's Greek for nepotism.

[BoysBoysBoysAndMe]

Sorry no.

Sounds like citronella - the insect repelling candle
Julie? Jan? - not for me personally

Any other names?

[gemma4d]

Sounds like a new bacteria, possibly rampant in NHS hospitals.

What about Bryony? It's Greek for nepotism.

And the Latin for nepotism must surely be Victoria (f) and Giles (m).

[HarrietSchulenberg]

Isn't that a candle that smells of fossil fuel that you use to discourage moths? Or is it a needy old hag?

[LineRunner]

True genius, harriet, - and a very lovely name, too.

[GrimmaTheNome]

Oh you bad bad people...when I posted what I did on t'other thread I was thinking, 'maybe someone should...nah, that'd be mean'

[LineRunner]

There are eddies in the space-time continuum. Clearly.

[GrimmaTheNome]

Eddies? I thought we were talking about girls' names on this thread?

[LineRunner]

Eddie Monsoon.
