To want to shoot my friend

[liverbird10]

...for naming his daughter Tinkerbell?

I know I am actually BU as it's none of my business etc. Also shooting people is generally not the way to approach such matters.

I feel so sorry for the poor kid. She's going to go through torture at school. Not to mention thee rest of her life. Imagine a high court judge called Tinkerbell.

[LoneStarRising]

Tynka-bel is the only way I can think of to make that worse.

[Teutonic]

I'm thinking of making my garden pond a bit bigger. I will make it deeper if you want to hide the bound, gagged, shot and burnt body in it.
Poor thing. Imagine when she grows up?
Do you Tinkerbell Smith take thee......
Hello, I'm Tinkerbell Smith, your solicitor, estate agent, financial advisor etc.
Everyone else like Poor old Tinkerbell like

Henceforth, 'Tiramisu' is officially Queen of the Fairies. However, poor Tinkerbelle may have to put up with smart arses telling her they don't believe she exists.....

As a by the way, anyone out there either called or know of a 'Shula' (of 'The Archers') or a 'Demelza' ('Poldark')?

[whyareusernamessodifficult]

Tinky's worse than Tinkerbell.

My horse is called Tinkerbell and gets called Tinky Winky or Stinkerbell by the kids.
I see a similar fate in stock for that poor babe.

[NicolasFlamel]

Well they've sentenced her to a school life of misery! Stinkerbell, tinky winky..
Honestly what were they thinking?

[Emmageddon]

She'll go by the name of Belle and no-one (in her adult life) will be any the wiser.

[LegoCaltrops]

I don't know a Shula or a Demelza, but a friend of mine has named their DD Pixie. Perhaps she can be friends with Tinkerbell.

[YoureAllABunchOfBastards]

The Tinkster would have me reaching for the the nearest weapon. Poor kid.

I am getting an Angel, an Angelle and a Star in the new year group in Sept

[Emmageddon]

I went to uni with a woman called Tina. Perfectly normal name. Alas, her birthday fell on 14th Feb and she was actually called Valentina which she utterly hated and despised.

And because we were hateful students with no filter, once we found out, decided to call her Val.

[liverbird10]

@wickedstepmum67 oddly, I went to school with a Demelza back in the 90s!

[Jux]

Oubliette. I do actually know one. Luckily, she is still v small and doesn't care right now. I am wondering what she will do once she finds out.

[TheRollingCrone]

I like it !

[sashh]

I don't think you need to hide the body or have an alibi, no court would convict you.

[elephantoverthehill]

Jux you have to be having a laugh, Oubliette what will she think of her parents when she understands what it means? I hope she is called 'Letty' by time she goes to school. If I taught a child called 'Oubliette' I would have to question whether to fill out a child protection form. Did the registrar actually allow that?

[Fekko]

Maybe they were following the 'where the baby was conceived' theme.

[TiramisuQueenoftheFaeries]

You called?

(Someone actually named a child Oubliette? This is why French GCSE should be mandatory. Ouch.)

[pigsDOfly]

Oubliette? Oh dear god. I suspect they just liked the sound of it and had no idea of the meaning. How grim.

Having said that I've always thought that Chlamydia sounds like quite a nice name for a girl, but I sure as hell wouldn't name my child Chlamydia.

[TmiTuesdays]

Never mind high court judge, what if she has a job where she has to give people bad news?

'Hello, I'm Tinkerbell. I'm afraid we've had to cut your benefits....' 'I'm Doctor Tinkerbell Smith. I'm afraid it's terminal', 'Hi, I'm Tinkerbell and I'm here to talk to you about Jesus Christ our Saviour' (actually I rather like the last one, it would make my day)!

If she goes into any job that involves calling people she's going to get a lot of people hanging up thinking she's taking the piss!

[Pixilicious]

I know of a Pixie Belle. So god-awful. Poor child. Her parents are twats though so not surprising.

[Fekko]

Sounds like their 3 year old named the baby.

[OhhBetty]

Kids get the piss taken out of them for anything at all. At least she can hopefully be prepared for it and have comebacks at the ready.

[user3785022135267845922]

My nickname as a child was tinks! sometimes 'tinkerbell'! However, it was a nickname, not a real name! and I ceased to be called it after age 6! I am now a doctor! and simply cannot imagine being dr tinker bell smith (not real surname!) Hopefully she has a normal ish middle name she can use instead as she gets older! Or perhaps she's in witch the mega rich celebs! and will go to school with peaches, apples, harpers etc..... In which case she'll be fine!!!!!

[user3785022135267845922]

With not witch!!!

[FiveGoMadInDorset]

Frozen leg of lamb will do the job and then we can all eat afterwards

[Ellie56]

Tinky makes me think of the Teletubbies. Poor child.
