My sister does an amazing impression of Dick Emery. I just think of him.

Please don't- it's awful.

rainbow99 · 19/11/2016 22:55

As soon as I saw the title I though Emery Board - sorry

eyebrowsonfleek · 19/11/2016 22:26

Emery board then I'd wonder if you said Emily.

Chickydoo · 19/11/2016 22:17

Dick

WuTangFlan · 19/11/2016 22:11

For a boy or a girl?

If a girl, called her Emma and give her a middle name starting E - then Emma E for short?

AllotmentyPlenty · 19/11/2016 22:06

Emery board here too, sorry.

Sophronia · 19/11/2016 22:05

I quite like it for a boy

Afreshstartplease · 19/11/2016 21:04

Love it

PunkrockerGirl · 19/11/2016 21:03

Surly (sic) only a complete dick would suggest 'helpful' alternatives to some of the horrors that posters try and pass off as 'names' on here.
The sensible answer, instead of trying to rearrange the letters to form another name, is no, that's not a name, don't be fucking ridiculous.

KlingybunFistelvase · 19/11/2016 20:37

Board for me too! Sorry.

MadameCholetsDirtySecret · 19/11/2016 20:37

Please don't.

lightupowl · 19/11/2016 20:36

Board. Sorry Smile

neonrainbow · 19/11/2016 20:33

Surly that's more useful than just being a dick about the name op suggested? Hmm

PunkrockerGirl · 19/11/2016 20:08

I think it's awful, but each to their own.
I love how on these threads when posters say they're not keen on the op's suggestion, but helpfully suggest insert equally hideous name as an alternative Grin
Gives me hours of entertainment.

Theimpossiblegirl · 19/11/2016 19:58

I like it. There was a show a couple of years ago called Starcrossed and the main character was Emery. I didn't think of an emery board (I just call them nail files) or Dick Emery (never heard of him).

CordeliaFrost · 19/11/2016 19:58

Love it.

It's my younger brother's name. He's spent 29 years with the name and it hasn't done him any harm! Wink

bloodymaria · 19/11/2016 19:57

Board definitely.

EmpressOfTheSpartacusOceans · 19/11/2016 19:55

Oh good, I'm not the only one who thought of Dick.

neonrainbow · 19/11/2016 19:55

Board.

What about Avery? Unisex and has a similar feeling.

JaneAustinAllegro · 19/11/2016 19:54

What about Amory / Amaury? An actual name, and I thought s man's but used for a woman in the latest William Boyd novel

Blossomdeary · 19/11/2016 19:53
