I’m talking the ridiculous ones, so not meaning to offend anyone. If you remember the story how you heard it please include that too!

Mine Grin
When I was in hospital after my c section 6 weeks ago, lady across from me was talking to a nurse. The conversation went like this-

Nurse “he’s gorgeous! Does he have a name?”
Lady “yeh he’s legend king, after my dad”
Nurse “ooh....lovely!”
Lady “yeah named him after my dad as my dad died yesterday, same day e was born”
Nurse “oh I’m so sorry!”
Lady “it’s alright happened years ago, he was stabbed never liked the bastard serves him right!”
Nurse “okay! Right you can have these pain killers...”

😂😂 know I shouldn’t laugh but me and my mum told everyone at Christmas.

Names and stories please!

Sherlock. A baby called Sherlock. I saw the christening pictures.

A friend’s husband- surname Dick. Had a child with another woman, named him Justin. True. He’d be about 25 now.

@Candymay - Grin - there are worse names - he could have been called shortened versions of the names Richard or William.

Or Isaac.

Candymay · 16/01/2019 18:17

Haha I had to keep thinking about Isaac- didn’t see it at first. Yes William or Richard dick would be bad too. But why Justin? Of all the names to pick from.

I’ve also met a Classic. That’s his name- classic.

TeenyLittle · 16/01/2019 20:32

Just-In-Dick. Not full penetration, like it's so small it's just in.

YeahSorryBoutThat · 17/01/2019 16:26

Candymay- bet he deed polled that name by now.

@MikeUniformMike

They aren't very good names.

Happy to help.

MikeUniformMike · 18/01/2019 15:56

I know several Lees and Garys and 1 Ken. They're just the Ryans, Connors and Brads (or Leos, Noahs and Zacs) of their generation.

Janedoe5000 · 18/01/2019 17:56

So do I.

It was great talking.

JungianMum · 18/01/2019 19:45

Gary is the old Harry
Ken is the old Ben

MikeUniformMike · 18/01/2019 19:54

Lee is the old Leo

x2boys · 18/01/2019 22:39

Barry is the old Gary and Len is the old KenGrin

Pinkyponkcustard · 19/01/2019 07:34

I know a 3 year old called len! It just reminds me of Bishop Brennan in father ted - “ don’t call me Len you little prick”

Rainbowknickers · 24/03/2019 19:12

Stepdaughter has mates called neo and phoenix (I do try to keep a straight face when I see them-both lovely lads) my son went to school with a clover,jester and Herbie at work the other day I met a girl called 'princess' I thought mum was taking the piss but nope-thats her real name

Palominoo · 24/03/2019 19:17

The only boy is called Lucky.

Palominoo · 24/03/2019 19:17

Missing word 'Father'.

I once heard of a Maxim which I know is an actual name but mostly it’s a lads mag. If his mates ever google it they’ll take the piss something rotten.

PippilottaLongstocking · 24/03/2019 19:51
