The museum is pretty impressive

Like the uk Eurovision entry? Thanks for putting that ear worm in my head 😂

"According to the Tibetan teachings, there are three death bardos: the painful bardo of dying, the luminous bardo of dharmata, and the karmic bardo of becoming."

It's a no from me.

No.

Bardot at a push (as in Brigitte) but I'm grasping at straws there!

Are you Buddhist?

Was trying to see if there was a way to combine 2 family names but doesn’t seem like it works so will rethink.

Are the names Barry and Doris? Barbara and Donald?

I think Bardo is a nice but unusual name!
Makes me think of the old tv series "Jack & Jill", there was a character named Barto in it, quite similar.

It is a Buddhist concept around the death, not sure I'd pick it for a dc's name.

My first thought too. Sort of like purgatory.

Glad someone else went straight to this! Re the earworm, apparently singing happy birthday to yourself helps to get rid of it - something to do with your brain not letting go of the earworm as it wants a conclusion ie for you to sing the whole song and complete the "task" so distract it with happy birthday as you know all that song.

I'm normally all for putting whatever you like as a middle name as it's hardly used but this is truly terrible. It isn't even a great way to show honour to two names because the mash up has like no clear link really (I'm assuming).

DuchessOfSausage · 11/05/2023 17:26

If it's Barry and Donna, you could have Dorry

jammydodgyy · 11/05/2023 17:41

Sorry I don't get it personally

fairycupcakes · 11/05/2023 22:46

if you tell us the names perhaps we can help?

greenspaces4peace · 11/05/2023 22:49

ahhhh i went to school with girls named after their aunts/uncles:
there was a Franori, a DaLinda, and Theldonna.
so if you share the names we could hive mind a suitable combo.

BlueChampagne · 12/05/2023 09:28

Short for Bardolph or Isembardo? I'm going to buck the trend - I quite like it. It has a mediaeval ring.

Skybluepinky · 12/05/2023 09:47

Weren’t they UK Eurovision entry possibly 80’s or 90’s that said tooken instead of taken?
