    I was having this very conversation with a friend recently. We agreed on;

    Noreen
    Donna
    Irene
    Kitty
    Barbara
    Nora
    Doris
    Jamie

    I think Discharge would have to be my least favourite, in all fairness.

    Isidore (caretaker where i used to work)
    Reginald

    Jaime -Guy i worked with was called that and insisted thats how it was spelled.I think he decided to spell it that way 'cos it was "cool.(he was an a-hole.)

    Stuartina- why oh why would someone call their kid that.(friends cousin's name, parents must have been expecting a boy.)

    I used to work with a woman called florentine "flossie" for short. She used to say people gave their pets better names.

    Sorry if I offended you. In fairness, the two Irish names on there are for personal reasons. I've good reason to hate them! LOL.

    Sorry though... :o

    Also, how is it spelt wrong? If you're name is Dolores, sorry, I don't know how to spell it right..

    You mean Porsche or Portia (same pronunciation, one marginally more actually-a-real-name-like-yer-wan-from-AllyMcBeal/ArrestedDevelopment/NipTuck)

    'Jaime' is a fairly common Spanish name.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 844 ✭✭✭allabouteve


    Evelyn. Hate it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,167 ✭✭✭Notorious


    I was waiting for my name to come up :rolleyes:...

    I really don't like the names Jacinta, Gertrude (a lot of Boardsies seem to agree on this one), Eabha, Dominic, St. John (pronounced sin-gin; generally a middle name), Eric, Wilbert, Alister, Anthony, Keith...

    Some weird parents, for reasons of "snobbery", give their kids strange names. When these kids go to school, they may as well have a sign round their necks saying "Beat the sh1t outta me."

    A person I know of has named her children Rupert, Velvet and Octavia.

    octavia like the skoda!

    There is a politican in Meath called Ulich Magee who has a brother called Pat Magee and his sons name is Pierse Magee

    poor lads, maybe they were all mistakenly named :confused:

    Surely not a real name?!:eek:

    Not too fond of Sinead, Shauna, Penelope, Patricia,Crystal (and other names along those lines)

    Also typical american names like Chad, Bret, Todd etc.
