Finding it really hard to pick a boys name, I've got a little boy called Louie and thinking of Jayden for this one could be shortend to J or middle name will be Joseph as that's my dads name so Jayden Joseph could also be JJ. Honest opinions please :)

Yes the discussion is quite pacey on the EDL chat forum isn't it?

Spero · 02/06/2014 15:12

I do hope you are not trying to infer/imply/impute or otherwise suggest anything with those words...

Right! I hear the siren cry of the toilet.

To those I have upset with any clumsy or ill judged phrases - I am truly sorry.

to those of you who want to attribute malicious or unpleasant 'imputations' behind what I actually said, go fuck yourselves sideways.

How has this thread got to 16 pages?!?! Sheesh! Lighten up people. It's a marmite name. I hate it, but I know a number of people in very prestigious jobs with totally weird names of the non-MC variety.

God, why am I posting? Agh!

Some of us don't want to be perceived as MC, hard for some of you to understand I know. But get over it.

Some of us to see it as an advantage to have names that are as classLESS as possible so as to fit in anywhere.

Not quite sure which stupid snobby fuckers you are refering to but my own experience of snobby fuckers is that telling them to stop being snobby fuckers is singularly ineffective.

Meanwhile this proud plebian with a professional job is sticking to her theory about the advantages of neutral names.

isnt everybody worried that there are loads of WC children that have MC names so no one can tell they are poor?

Isn't that just horrifying?

WC parents should know their places.

meliscent · 02/06/2014 16:17

I thought Spero had a point (how others might perceive the name) until she brought up her own personal experience of care proceedings and the names she encounters.

Seriously Hmm

I'm staunchly middle class and not happy to be associated with some of the views expressed on this thread.

FidelineandFumblin · 02/06/2014 16:18

I admire your energy.

I can't even work up the enthusiam to wash the kitchen floor ATM Smile

RiverTam · 02/06/2014 16:20

usual - you don't want to be perceived of as being MC, others don't want to be thought of as WC. Can you explain what the difference is please? It's snobbery from both sides as far as I can tell.

Spero · 02/06/2014 16:20

You'll be pleased to know the toilet is sparkling like a sparkly toilet diamond.

Now I am seriously confused.

I can't unlive my experiences. My experiences are my experiences. I report back a truth I have witnessed.

Why does this make me a bad person with bad views?

Given that I obviously decry prejudice and work hard to support those who are vulnerable and generally shafted by life, why is it wrong to tell you what FACTS have formed my views?

Genuinely curious now. Have gone through rage and come out again the other side on a peaceful zen cloud of curiosity at the utter strangeness of people sometimes.

Are you going to show me where I have looked down on WC people?

Or is that just something that you are going to 'infer' from something I said.

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/06/2014 16:22

Thats a bizarre question riverTam

can you not see the difference?

Spero · 02/06/2014 16:25

I can't really see much difference between being prejudiced against someone because of what you perceive their background to be, whether its a MC hating on a WC or vice versa.

It is still letting your prejudice cloud your view - which is what I suspect is happening on this thread. Some people's knees are jerking ALL over the shop.

FidelineandFumblin · 02/06/2014 16:25

isnt everybody worried that there are loads of WC children that have MC names so no one can tell they are poor?

No. I think that would be bloody marvellous (Though I still don't know what a 'MC name' is)

merce · 02/06/2014 16:26

You asked for honest - I really don't like Jayden. Sorry! Eatmydust gave a great list of names beginning with J upthread.
