To think the teacher should know my sons name by now

Son was chatting in class fair dues so at the end of the lesson son walks out of class teacher runs down the corridor shouting ken ken get back here now son ignores teacher she shouting ken get back here

My sons name is not ken

So ken comes running out the loo sorry miss she looks confused the continues after my son and asks him why he didn't answer

Well he's not ken for a start

The thing that pissed me off is she phoned to tell me what happened well what dose she want his name is not ken so why would she be expecting a reply and he got a 15 minute detention I suspect by then its was more to do with her feeling like a fool thank the talking

damn Mikey or Michael, Mike is more grown-up, agree it's slightly odd.

Hector - good, solid name. Also suits a cat.

My Granddad was Leslie, he hated it.

My cat had sex with her dad and got pregnant and then her kittens came out and they were all strange and cross eyed.

FACT.

Shock bastard raping ken-cat Sad

DamnBamboo · 08/12/2011 21:47

high

He had two eyes?

Err, well that's a bonus then! HmmGrin

Leather elbow pads and brown tweed jacket!

Did you know he dressed like this when you agreed to go out with him, or was it a blind date?

+Barry Is The Baby's Name

We'll call him Barry, Barry.

That'll be the baby's name.

We thought of Lance or Josh,

But, oh, my gosh,

They're not the same.

But if it's Barry, Barry,

That's a name with style and grace.

And if he's not a he,

It still could be

Like in Barrie Chase

this is actually a song Hmm

DamnBamboo · 08/12/2011 21:50

BaublesandCuntingCarolSingers · 08/12/2011 21:51

I'm sorry I'm sorry, I'v had a glass of wine that is about 79& proof :(

HighHeidYin · 08/12/2011 21:51

He had rather nice eyes Damn. That momentarily disguised the cords and tweed so in a sense, it was a blind date...

I was 17 and a bit in awe as he was 30 and an old pervert incredibly intelligent, despite the dreadful lack of style.

MabelLucyAttwell · 08/12/2011 21:51

Sorry VivianDarkBloom.

"Mabel ... Wencelas?!"

I should have said that you were close.

DigOfTheChristmasTreeStump · 08/12/2011 21:51

My grandads were Allan and John.

festi · 08/12/2011 21:53

mabel....steven?

Arkady · 08/12/2011 21:54

My grandad's name was Bill, but my grandma always called him Kem which was an abbreviation of their surname. I think a lot of people thought he was called Ken.

SanTEEClaus · 08/12/2011 21:56

My dad's name is Bill. His mom always called him Billy. Which is ridiculous thing to call a grown man.

yay!!

HighHeidYin · 08/12/2011 21:59

My neighbour insists on calling one of my dds 'Activia'.

I have stopped correcting her. I'm waiting to see it on a Baby Name thread one day.

Bearcrumble · 08/12/2011 21:59

Mabel -Um, what's similar to Wenceslas and Christmassy? Fuck... erm - Nicholas?

My maternal Grandma was a Christmas day baby AND a twin. They were my Great-Grandma's 7th and 8th children and she'd run out of names so she let the doctor name one and the midwife name the other. Doc named nanna Christine and poor auntie Nelly got called Nelly. Not even short for Eleanor, just Nelly.

Bearcrumble · 08/12/2011 21:59

Oh, too late. And wrong.

festi · 08/12/2011 22:07

I just spat my wine out remembering going upto to communion with my new born daughter and the first time I had seen priest since dd was born so does his little blessing and between that popping communion im my mouth he asks what I called her band he obviously miss heard what I had said and increadibly taken back he said "oh, ok" Oh hello sailor", I nearly collapsed and peed my pants right there on the alter. I had to go out after I had taken communion as I was so uncomposed when I returned to my seat.

AncientsOfMuMu · 08/12/2011 22:08

My grandad was called Sid and he had a dog called Ken. He had two eyes but only one and a half ears. The dog that is Grin

The mother of one of Ds's friends calls me Jane. That is not my name. Her husband calls me my correct name. I have the feeling they are more confused than I am.

lisaro · 08/12/2011 22:10

To be fair, until his death this year, my Pa called me by my older sisters' and even occasionally brothers' names. he'd run through a random couple of them until he got to mine - suppose it's because I'm the youngest.

whackamole · 08/12/2011 22:13

I am weeping with laughter!

My OH is called Alan. And my cousin has called her new baby Hector. Awful.

I only ever knew one Ken. He looks like Sloth from the Goonies.
