I actually can't be sure this isn't a joke

it's probably a good reason that I'm not having kids
because they would end up called Persephone and Theseus and things like that

or numbers

Numbers would be fucking brilliant!

Six and Seven are best
for girls anyway, however I see from TGBs link earlier that some celebrity has named their kid Seven, and Six was used in the shit tv show Blossom.

Same
Glad I'm never having children because I would call them ridiculous names probably Roman in origin
(, Mon 4 Apr 2011, 14:51, Reply)
the thing is, I'd like to call kids names from mythology
Greek, Roman, Norse, whatever, but I wouldn't actually be able to bring myself to do it, so they'd end up with ordinary and boring names.
(, Mon 4 Apr 2011, 14:52, Reply)
Same here.
My daughter's name is unusual though, it's just foreign, but 100% apt as it's related to my grandmother's, sister's and cousin's names, and is also Greek like her mother's grotty wankstain family.
(, Mon 4 Apr 2011, 15:01, Reply)
it is a nice name too
not wanky, but not ordinary.

I like Artemisia.
Kick ass woman, and it's the biological name for wormwood.
(, Mon 4 Apr 2011, 14:53, Reply)
I like that
another difficulty I have is that I like my mum's name and should I have a child would like to name it after her.

Unfortunately it is the same as a popular brand of tyre and a system for grading restaurants, with an e added to the end of it, and she has spent her entire life being called the tyre.

I was going to make a "lolol your mum's called Michelin?" joke
until I realised that's exactly what she's called.

Middle name?
I like my mum's name. But it suits her well.

it's irrelevant as I'm not having children

I meant have it as a middle name.
This is hypothetical, I assume.

that's what I thought you meant.
it is hypothetical. I'm slightly confused now and I don't know why

I'd probably be more vindictive than that.

I still think Dido is a monumentally odd name to call a daughter that you actually like.

how can you tell if you like them at that point though?

(, Mon 4 Apr 2011, 15:05, Reply)
Fair comment
but calling your child Dido is like naming your son after Stuart Lubbock.

did you hear that half-shit joke from some years back
First, Dodi and Di, then Dando died. (order may be wrong)

Dido must be shitting herself

I did. It's odd which jokes one can recall, isn't it?
I've heard some that have had me in fits but had left my brain within an hour, but every single shitty Ethiopian joke from school is indelibly imprinted on my mind, it seems...

there are about 5 jokes that I consistently remember

I prefer Greek and Gaelic
but having one child called Eurymachus and another called Mhairi would quite rightly make me look a wanker.

Luckily I'm unlikely to ever be in the position of choosing a name

There was a Mhairi at our school.
It's a nice name, but it will forever be associated with a fat mess to me. As will the name Amy.

Why, was she not actually quite contrary?

(, Mon 4 Apr 2011, 15:13, Reply)
Because Mhairi is pronounced "Vowri"
This is one reason why I'd never actually use a classical or Gaelic name. Quite apart from instantly making me a wanker, having to explain the pronounciation each time I met somebody new would get really old, really fast.
(, Mon 4 Apr 2011, 15:17, Reply)
Gaelic spelling/pronunciation truly is contrary isn't it?

Sorry Monty.
