Aunt_Acid Posted August 28, 2004 Report Posted August 28, 2004 I know some people have their name posted in their personal info, but for those who don't, what's your name? Mine is Chris. I lied in my profile because Ron's a cooler name.
Jillianne Posted August 28, 2004 Report Posted August 28, 2004 Jillianne or Gillian, or Jill, whatever, its crap either way
_jr_ Posted August 28, 2004 Report Posted August 28, 2004 Dave, but my Mom calls me David. David Earl when I'm in trouble.
Danielj Posted August 28, 2004 Report Posted August 28, 2004 I'm Daniel for those who haven't figured it out yet, It's Danielj because my second name is a J...John.
Tenacious_Peaches Posted August 28, 2004 Report Posted August 28, 2004 Kari...Miss Peaches if you're nasty...
scott Posted August 29, 2004 Report Posted August 29, 2004 Well my name's actually M Night Shyamalamalingadingalongagongadong..... No just kidding, it's (believe it or not) Scott.
CaptainMikeRS Posted August 29, 2004 Report Posted August 29, 2004 My real name is so long that by the time you pronounced one sylable, a thousand galaxies will have been born and died. Actually my name is Mike, that's just a partial quote from Futurama.
Bobo Posted August 29, 2004 Report Posted August 29, 2004 My name (information acquired from the last time I checked my underwear, Homer Simpson style), is Matt. Apparently if I had have been born a girl my name would have been Helen, but I wouldn't have been particularly fond of that, I don't think. Maybe it's just a general bad experience thing with people called Helen. Not that I'm not willing to try and improve things between me and them, of course..! Matt
_jr_ Posted August 29, 2004 Report Posted August 29, 2004 Apparently if I had have been born a girl my name would have been Helen, That's funny. My Mom always told me that if I were a girl, I would have been named Brenda, after my Pop's all time favorite Brenda Lee

Aunt_Acid Posted August 30, 2004 Author Report Posted August 30, 2004 That's funny. My Mom always told me that if I were a girl, I would have been named Brenda, after my Pop's all time favorite Brenda Lee If I was a girl, I would be named Amy.
Aunt_Acid Posted August 30, 2004 Author Report Posted August 30, 2004 My name (information acquired from the last time I checked my underwear, Homer Simpson style), is Matt. Ooooooooooooooooh, monogramed underwear
Opiate Posted August 30, 2004 Report Posted August 30, 2004 My name is Tara. People are always and forever pronouncing it as "Terra" ...which is not correct. Say it with me Tar...a Tara...that's me! ::
miamisammy29 Posted August 30, 2004 Report Posted August 30, 2004 I lied in my profile because Ron's a cooler name. It is!? Cooler than what....Rod?? Do you think Chris is as girlie a name as Sammy? As I told you, my name is Ken. And, yes, some call me Kenny....and there's nothing girlie about it.
Jillianne Posted August 30, 2004 Report Posted August 30, 2004 My name is Tara. People are always and forever pronouncing it as "Terra" ...which is not correct. Say it with me Tar...a Tara...that's me! :: Yes, its Irish ya know.. I hate that.. Julie-ann? jill-ann? NO ITS JILL-EE-ANN! ::
Sara Posted August 30, 2004 Report Posted August 30, 2004 My name is Tara. People are always and forever pronouncing it as "Terra" ...which is not correct. Say it with me Tar...a Tara...that's me! :: It's all my fault - people try to pronounce it like it's my name with a T. This is reminds me, I used to work with a guy who pronounced my name like Tara with an S - Sar-a. A couple other people started pronouncing it like that too b/c they thought it was hysterical the way he said it. ::
windy1 Posted August 30, 2004 Report Posted August 30, 2004 My name is Carole. That would be Carol with an e. For some reason people seem to think I have added that e to be cutesy or something. I didn't. My mom named me for Carole Lombard for some reason. My birth certificate says Carole. I am constantly telling people that the e is not optional. My name is not Carol!! Carol is pronounced with an ahh sound.Carole is pronounced with an ehh sound. It drives me crazy! ::
XXX Posted August 31, 2004 Report Posted August 31, 2004 My name is Juan Carlos, but everyone calls me "one" ::

You people drive me nuts!! Some people have weird names, but get all defensive when someone cant pronounce it. I understand my last name may be a little difficult to pronounce, so I don't get my underwear in a knot when somebody says it wrong. There was a boy in my middle school named Norah. His name was pronounced Noah, but the r was silent.
windy1 Posted August 31, 2004 Report Posted August 31, 2004 The pronunciation doesn't bother me so much- nobody gets that, I understand that. It's the leaving off the E even when it's someone who has known me for a long time. I'd like it to be spelled the way it is on my birth certificate. Carol is somebody else, not me.
windy1 Posted August 31, 2004 Report Posted August 31, 2004 Up your nose with a rubber hose Chrissie!!
