    That's because you didn't give them the secret handshake.

    Surely this thread calls into question the wisdom of permitting the lower orders to name their offspring at all?

    I propose a naming authority be established, staffed by erudite cultured gentlemen possessed of exquisite taste (such as myself), to provide respectable names for these benighted unfortunates.

    Picked something up from a lady recently that had a baby girl called Rogue.
    She explained something something that the name actually doesn't mean X but Y. She seemed a bit like she's not 100% happy with the choice of name anymore.
    Sound lass though.

    The first thing I would think of is Rogue from The X Men. I think it is a lovely name but I personally wouldn't name a child it.

    I dunno, certain scenarios would no longer have the same gravitas.
    For example:

    Mother: "Gerrup ta ur fúckin room now, Genevieve!"

    Or

    Mother: "Gerrup ta ur fúckin room now, Rihanna!"

    It wouldn't be the same swapping all the Antos, Decos and Steos for Reginalds, Walters and Hugos. :pac:

    When i was selling a car years ago the man brought his two little boys with him - Axel and Diesel.
    For their sake i wish i was joking but sadly no.

    I know a couple who have three children 6, 7 and 9.
    They're useless at naming children :D

    That's a real coincidence!

    - I have two boys, 5 and 6. We’re no good at naming things in our house. Ed Byrne

    I always see Nathan Fielder in my head whenever I hear that name and it makes everything incredibly uncomfortably awkward.

    Chantelle, in the Irish context, must always be shouted, and is invariably followed by something along the lines of "ged in off the road you'll be kilt"

    Chantelle really sounds like it should be a brand of panty liner or toilet paper.
