You can't condemn him to a life time of barbecue jokes surely

Carrott21 · 23/07/2021 22:29

Durkheim is lovely Grin

I can't remember any more A Level Sociology!!

sauceyorange · 23/07/2021 22:31

There's always Marx obviously, but for some reason I think it's a cat name

Bronowski? Mead?

Modern sociology is all fwah fwah french names so not as good IMO

RevolutionRadio · 23/07/2021 22:31

They make car parts

Chilldonaldchill · 23/07/2021 22:31

I had no idea this was a BBQ manufacturer.
I thought of the German composer and would automatically pronounce it VAY - buh.

sauceyorange · 23/07/2021 22:31

Mind you Derrida and Foucault would also be excellent cat names. Imagine the neighbours faces 😂

Carrott21 · 23/07/2021 22:33

You've taken me back over 20 years now.

ShortBacknSides · 23/07/2021 22:33

You’re going to call your child after a bbq? Seriously??

irresistibleoverwhelm · 23/07/2021 22:34

Oh please don’t OP, everyone will think he’s a German grandpa or a brand of garden machinery. And he will always have to spell it.

(No offence to any German grandpas or barbecue enthusiasts…)

TatianaBis · 23/07/2021 22:35

Composer to me.

If it’s not spelt Webber as in Andrew Lloyd, it’s def Vayba.

Figgygal · 23/07/2021 22:35

Ghastly
Sorry but what even is that?

I think a pair of cats called Malinowski and Cixous would be fantastic 😂
Zilla1 · 23/07/2021 22:37

Did he mean Wunderbar?

SunSeaSurfGin · 23/07/2021 22:38

I'm on team BBQ I'm afraid

Stichintime · 23/07/2021 22:40

Poor kid. Just why?

DillonPanthersTexas · 23/07/2021 22:43

Yeah, you will be teeing him up nicely for some epic playground piss taking. Maybe call him Grill Master instead?

sauceyorange · 23/07/2021 22:44

Malinowski! swoons

QueSeraSarah · 23/07/2021 22:44

I thought they made volleyballs, footballs, or some other ball? But no. It's a silly one.

IsobelEd · 23/07/2021 22:47

It's either a barbecue or a prominent sociologist.

Haybo26 · 23/07/2021 22:48

I love my Weber...FYI..its a BBQ!

RockingMyFiftiesNot · 23/07/2021 22:50

No one will ever pronounce or spell it properly. Your child will have to live with BBQ related teasing for the rest of their lives
I don't actually believe this is a serious post.

Thecurtainsofdestiny · 23/07/2021 22:51

Sturge- Weber syndrome

chaosrabbitland · 23/07/2021 23:07

Regularsizedrudy · 23/07/2021 23:07

Rainbowqueeen · 23/07/2021 23:14

Nope. For all the reasons everyone else has said.
