Worst name you have ever come across.

Someone who loved Judge Dread was going to call child Dread. Thankfully was persuaded otherwise.

It's Welsh, isn't it? Like the joke, I'm wondering if his first name was Dai...

My mum wanted to call me charity.

That is where the nickname “Nazi” comes from. “Nazi” short for “Ignatius” was a stereotypical nickname for a thick racist Bavarian peasant. Kind of like calling somebody “a bit of a Darren”, or “a total Kev”.

My brother went to uni with a Mike Hunt. He loved the name. As a student it made him very cool! They also had a Saxon Bullock. Which I think is just an awesome name. He was also a pretty cool guy

Valentina is a beautiful name and popular in Italy.

No - he was born on a ship SS Diogenes !

Oh we have one of those in DS’s class, it’s actually fairly pretty once you overlook the fact it is Heaven spelled backwards. Nevayah.

A man called Donk.
It was short for donkey. The claim was he was hung like a donkey.
It was one of those stupid nicknames that public school boys have for each other that was still being used in adult hood.

De’ath. I’d change my name.

Valentina is a beautiful name and popular in Italy.

I used to work with a beautiful Italian girl named Valentina. Some people in the office didn’t like her so would refer to her as “Val” behind her back, doubt she cared mind .

Do you like your own name. I love mine. Popular in the fifties much less so now. Never taught one in 30+ years. Four letters. J**e.

i think it’s pregnancy hormones that make you like ridiculous names, when I was pregnant I liked Finbar and Adonis luckily I saw sense I mean wtf was I thinking???

my youngest sons initials are BS I literally didn’t even click until he was a year old 😑

A few years ago when we were looking around nurseries for our DC we say the name Fury next to one of the pegs. Can’t say I was keen!

That is the coolest name and the coolest reason to be be called Diogenes.

I taught a class that had a Brawn and an Adonis. And both boys looked like their names.

Moon unit and Dweezil ?

Twins called Bacardi and Breeze

And a Scarlet O’Hara

Jane? Good if your surname is Eyre.

Oh. Poor kids.

Malena is a very common Hispanic name. Melena, apart from what you described, means main or a person’s long hair.

I thought it was a shortened of the German "National Socialist Party" (obviously the German spelling - which I am not going to attempt)

I met a Hawk the other day.

You are not wrong. I have a friend named Alexa - she got stick for it in the 80s after the Joan Collins character in Dynasty and then had to put up with devices going off every time someone said her name. She has now decided "you can call me Al" - the reference to the song is intentional!
