    I know of two Valentines, (one was my English teacher) and afaik it was just they were named after the saint as they were born on that day.

    Looks like noveltea read about both of them in the paper today.

    Used to be quite common. I knew a couple of Vals (short for Valentine) when I was growing up. I think it's a nice name.

    Like everything, it's cooler in Italian - Valentino...

    Fingal County Council are certainly not competent to be making decisions about the most important piece of infrastructure on the island. They need to stick to badly designed cycle lanes and deciding on whether Mrs Murphy can have her kitchen extension.

    Carter is their surname so I assume his name is just Sir :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    That's an unusual one alright. Though there was Slightly Bonkers in Fortycoats & Co.

    I don't like the name Dwayne. It just looks like the D shouldn't be there.
    It's usually associated with American Rednecks and Blacks, but it's actually of Irish/Gaelic origin: Dubhán.

    My workmate's sister has just called her baby girl Pea. Because she is as sweet as one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,490 ✭✭✭amtc


    Isn't there or wasn't there some proviso that a christening name had to include some reference to a saint?

    My pet hate by the way are these double barrelled ones. You know like CabenAlbi.

    Already happening in America. I think "Khaleesi" was one of the most popular new names. Like calling your daughter Queen.

    I think that's (possibly) the way it is for confirmation names.

    Although I'm not sure they stick to that strictly. Guess it probably depends on the parish/school/priest involved.

    I know of an irish Rihanna who is in her late teens, maybe early 20s at this stage, so she wouldve had that name long before it was made famous. I believe the name does have some celtic origins.

    Rhian is a Welsh name. Rhianna is a version of this.
