to want to strangle the parents

[ethanchristopher]

of the two new kids at ds's nursery this morning called (i am not a troll or jokin)

Tia Maria and little brother Daniel Jack

i actually didnt no wether to laff or cry

[mshadowsisfab]

pmsl
god that is awful

[strummer]

My friend called her son John Daniel on his birth certificate, they call him Jack Daniel as his nick name.

[ButtonMeUp]

[avenanap]

[morocco]

oooh, i've met a tia maria before. didn't realise there was more than 1 in the world lol

[dizzydixies]

my cousin friend is called Kaluha
I always thought it was lucky they weren't pissed on Special Brew or Maddog when she was conceived

[avenanap]

What about Stella?

[1dilemma]

I really don't understand why they didn't use Jack Daniel

[Woooozle100]

nah stella artois for next girl

[Mamazon]

YABU.

they aren't very imaginative names, nor particularly attractive but what you name your child is totally up to you as a parent.

how would you like it if someone came on and started saying that they thought the name ethan was a bit passe and common?

its personal choice. you may not like it its none of your business.

KVC. Wow!

[ethanchristopher]

okay but at least when ethan is old enuff for him and his friends to know brands of alcohol he wont be laffed at

i know a jack daniel who got mercilessly ribbed at about 14 when people realised.

[dizzydixies]

there are twins in the area where dh work (not a pleasant area btw) who are called one and two

[CoralReef]

There is a Tia Maria at our school too.

[MARGOsBeenPlayingWithMyNooNoo]

Yep, I was in the park earlier when I heard Mamazon call her 4 children in for their tea - Bert, Ernie, BigBird and CookieMonster went straight in without their mum having to call them more than once.

[Mamazon]

margo stop exagerating.

I only have bert ernie and Bignird!

[ethanchristopher]

AHAHAHAHAH omg i relli hope your jokin margo or i will be forced to rename ds animal. because i can.

[dizzydixies]

I agree completely that it is everyone's personal choice as to what to call their kids but surely there has to be a limit to some of it

these twins have two middle names that match too for example

one john brian smith
two john brian smith

names have been changed to protect the innocent of course

dh says they're probably about early thirties - would be interesting to ask them what they thought of their names

[ethanchristopher]

in scotland you dont have personal choice anyway, they can refuse to register certain names.

yay scotland!

[dizzydixies]

really? I never knew - I wish the registrar that did one and two had known

[MARGOsBeenPlayingWithMyNooNoo]

I have a friend who has the same name as a brand of kettle. Hand on heart, I am telling the truth.

Tefal Margo?
