I used to deal with this guy, He owns an alarm company, Nice guy but what were his parents thinking ?:( And He is 100% Irish !

That's the name of his company, not his name .I know him and his family well.

Worst I heard was a lil boy called Uisce!!!:eek::eek:

Its not even a name!! Plus it's naming them their child after the wrong form of Matter for feck sake. should have called them Carraig- at least it is a solid not a liquid..
Hopefully it is some sort of nickname- but it was the mother introducing him to another mother so doubt she'd give a nickname.. poor kid

There's a story in the book Freakonomics by Steven Levitt and Stephen j Dubner concerning a family in Brooklyn who had several children, of which the last 2 were called Winner and Loser:eek::eek:
Ironically, (or maybe not) Winner has a record as long as your arm,while Loser is a sergeant in the NYPD. (See pages 163-165)

AA Gill in an article a few years ago when discussing crap names did some research and found that in 2007, there were 6 children in the New York Metroplitan Area given the name Unique , while only one was given the name Uneek........

There were 3 girls in my son's primary school class (a while back and not in Ireland) named after US states although no american connection in any of the families;
Georgia
Montana
Tennessee
There was also a Paris in his class, cant remember but I think that was a boy.

My mate's nephew is called Ace. Now if his second name was Power it would be pretty badass.

But it's not.. it's Fitzsimons.

Ace ****ing Fitzsimons. Lame.

Just getting back to the OP...'Isis' is a media production programme, it's on my desktop and I use it every day.

Actually the full name is 'Avid Isis 5000', maybe the parents should have gone with that, has a better ring to it.

Bear Gryllss two kids are called Marmaduke and Huckleberry. Its a sure way to make sure they grow up to hate you I suppose.

David Bowie named his son Zowie Bowie. The poor chap had to change it himself to Duncan Jones.
