"A" names better than "D"-has anyone else seen this article?

This www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1240174/Why-Ant-live-longer-Dec--A-beginning-D-wipe-10-years-beginn ing-life.html
article suggests that babies with names starting with A will live 10 years longer than those starting with D.
Personally I like a lot of A names (for girls) but think this is a bit of a daft reason for choosing one name over another.

!

I once read that our initials can influence us negatively or positively.

That's got to be the biggest load of billy bolleaux i have ever read.

love the picture of Adam- he lived to be 930 , you know, so this proves the theory!!

I agree with many of the comments at the bottom, never mind the results, just tell me where i can get paid to 'research' such cr*p!!

Didn't everybody in the Old Testament (like Daniel and his lions, King David etc) live to be about 400 years old (okay I exaggerate a bit).

There again (thinks nastily) I once had a orrible bf called David....

My mum and brother have D names!
My ds has an A name though

Ha! My DD has an A name. Will make up for the fact that our surname begins with W and people with surnames from the bottom of the alphabet are low achievers apparently

What? Complete nonsense. Sounds like spurious correlation to me.

I was going to call my next child Dork. Thank goodness I read that article.

Are you thinking of christening him/her Alpha, then? Good sort of androgynous name, caters for all eventualities and prolongs life too.

Thats me fucked then

Shit, my son Dweeb will be devastated when he hears

That is all well and good but Dicks have more fun (if you read the whole article)....

Ok I made that bit up

ROFL. I think you'll find that Dicks don't do well. Willies were irrelevant to the study. As were Pricks and Penises. That just leaves Cocks and I think they're not very long-lived.

What a load of tosh!

Lucky DD is an Abigail though hey!

I'm going to call my next son Methuselah. Presumably m names live the longest
