to make assumptions about adults because of their names?

[jandymaccomesback]

I have a lovely friend called Pam, so to me all Pams are lovely. I was really taken aback recently when I met a Pam who was really horrible. What names have you got stereotypical views of?

Nina does it in the back of old cars
Sandy gets horny after a few drinks
Janet is a bit dim
You ask Joyce and Vicki...

None of the Janets I know are dim. Bit eccentric maybe...

Joannes are introverts
Joannas are shallow, tight-lipped and quietly grasping but great at lavish dinners
Josephines have interesting pasts (lesbian explorer potters, that sort of thing) and wear lots of velvet with flat shoes.

Susanne hates being called Sue and gets a bit stabby on occasion

Carolanne is happy being a SAHM, she tried work once and didn't like it

Laurie-Lee's parents are STILL hippies

Jamie has an over-inflated sense of themselves

Lesley is fun but will bitch about you nastily behind your back

Louise prioritises her man over her chidren

Agree that Richards will cheat on you and have far too high an opinion of themselves...

Nikkis are sociopaths.
Karens are too mouthy - shut the fuck up will you.
Pams are reliable but secretly up their own arse.
Tonys have erectile dysfunction.
Trishs are sweet and helpful.
Martins are nobbers.
Daves are alcoholics.
Pennys are slaaaags.
Lindas are beyond annoying.
Maggies are so bloody needy.

True dat.

Fizzy - I don't know, do we? LOL!

Fizzy - I have three friends called Helen and they are all mad, in different ways. There is Mad Helen, Bonkers Helen and Psycho Helen.

Can't fathom Frances. She has something of the Ice Queen about her.
Isn't it amazing how similar Richards are?

Deborah's are bitches
Or just the ones I know

Ilovedaintynuts theTony I knew had no problems in that department.Mind you we were students at the time.

For the record ALL alison's are beautiful, kind, funny, very intelligent and everyone is just jealous of them.

However Bernadettes are very pinchy (in my experience)

jennys always have delusions of grandeur

QueenLush - i had a friend at school, Helen, kind but crazy in a good way :) lots of fun.

I am yet to meet a nice Steve. They all seem really arrogant and think they are God's gift to women

QueenLush, I know one Helen and she can be all three at different times, when she is not pretending to be KindConcernedHelen and fooling people who don't really know her.
My name? Well given the above we are obviously all b***

Joanna seems lovely but will go after any man you do much as look at.
Amanda is bonkers. Completely barking. And socially inadequate.
Nina is a two/three/four faced loudmouth.
Angela is prim.
Totally agree with Lizzie- she needs to get out of her little world once in a while.
Maria is acerbic and bitter. She is also considerably richer than ya-ou.
Sheila is a dinner lady.
Alice is sweet and a bit dippy.

Amanda is just plain scary. I know three and they are all very strong characters indeed.
Angelas are similar,and like to have the last word.

I love Manic - she's just taken between 6 and 16 years off my age and 11-21 off DPs!

QueenLush, you never know! We may, or may not, work at the same place.

I have decided that this is a silly, silly thread. That is all.

Gosh I agree with lots of these
Esp Helen -nice and sensible
Lucy -happy
Amanda's strong character super efficient and very scary

Dave and Mike are salesmen

Caroles are tarts who are not to be trusted and will encourage your husband to leave you. Not all of them you understand, just the one!

Liz is false and a definite snake in the grass. At least the two I know...

And oi, you lot! Richard is my (not so) little brother!
