Today at work I met 2 children called

[Saltire]

Jamaica and China! My face must have gone when the mother told me becasue she said "well we can't all go through life with boring names like yours"

Cheeky cow! (Her, not you).

What sex were they? I'm guessing girls.

Saltire is a very unusual name, daft mare.

Jamaica reminds me of that joke

my wife went on holiday to the west indies

Jamaica?

no she went of her own accord....

poor kids. porn star names if ever i heard them....

I know a little girl called Jamaica. She's a sweetie.

China reminds me of Cockney Rhyming Slang, as in
"Alright me old china?"

Dodgy

Blame - what does China mean in rhyming slang?

I like China (and India for that matter) for names, but think Jamaica is a bit ott.

My son is called Lichtenstein and his twin sister is Luxembourg.

My next child will be called Bolivia

china plate/mate

china plate - mate

I'm thinking of New Zealand for my next DS. Whaddya think? Or maybe New-Zealand?

in our family china refers to vagina

(old mispronunciation by nephew going back years.....and it has stuck!)

China reminds me of this

Chyna

Must dash, have to bathe Uzbekistan and Argentina

Actually, Argentina would be nice for a girl........

It was a bit crappy of you to do a face when someone told you her children's names though.

Yes China is vagina, that's why the T'pau song was considered so hysterical when I was at school.

'China in my hand'

I had a Victorian relative called Argentine.

Venezuela would be nice for a girl ....

Argentine/Argentina, s'nice
It means Silvery, or of Silver or something to do with silver

Will file in my "names for my fictitious girl book"

At my dcs very posh and arty school, we have brothers called Marshall and Solomon Islands.

Unfortunately, I'm not. We also have siblings Trinidad and Tobago.

At school I had a brittany, arizona and paris in the same class.
