    Sweet jesus, she looks like one of those tropical Barbies.

    The boob creeping over the top of the other ones dress is hillarious, they aren't really in to control underwear judging by the bulges.

    Jaysus the state of the dress!

    Oh my! It's WONDERFUL! That is a fablys creation (but there's dressmaking in the family, so I'm looking at the workmanship....) and credit where it's due. If you wanted to wear a mermaid dress, you wouldn't find a more Disney example than that. Fair play.

    On the names thing - had a neighbour called her kid Gwendoline. I don't like Gwen for short either.

    Bradley. You might as well just write "I am fat stinking dole scum" across your kid's forehead.

    I just noticed that the kid in the first post on this thread was a boy named Isis. Bet they're regretting that now.

    I know a couple who called their girl teneesha (phonetic spelling). I think a lady with dark skin with that name sounds lovely, doesn't work so well on an Irish pastie.

    Jack.

    Bloody thousands of them around, common as muck!

    Mother calls it out now in a shop and 30 kids turn their heads.

    Thadeus. Jarlath. Gobnait. Ravinol. Mavourneen. I knew these poor misfortunates.

    All my generation - the 70's revival of sh!t names :o I nearly got called Saskia, but thankfully got something less likely to not suit me.

    Yesterday a list was published of names parents gave their boys and girls (both link to pdf's) in Holland.

    The boy with the name Bellend (has no meaning in Dutch whatsoever) better stays out of English speaking countries i suppose.

    Teacher: "Ok boys, we have a new class member joining us all the way from The Nederlands.
    Please give a big Irish welcome to...



    Bellend Van Kock"






    poor sod!

    Van Kock ... you will not find.

    De Kok however is rather common.

    Tyler Dillon.

    And yes, that's a first name.

    I agree. Along with Sam, Ben Harry and Charlie. So so common now and with no originality anymore.

    Drake for a boy.

    You'd have to really dislike your son to inflict that one on him. Ouch!

    In Trabolgan a few years back (yeah I know), and I heard the cry coming from the onsite fast food cafe,
    'Malibu, your burgurs he arre!'
    Class.

    Wesley, hate that name.

    Not a kid, but I guess he was a kid once.
    Over here, I hear a lot of strange second names.

    Was chatting to a couple at an outdoor karaoke session last summer and they were saying their second name was "Van Winkel"

    When leaving them (was tanked) I said good luck and the man asked me "Whats your name again, Sorry?"
    At this stage we were all pretty scuttered.

    I told him my and said "and you"?

    "Perry"

    I never laughed so much on the train home knowing I spent hours chatting to a man called Perry Van Winkel

    Just read an interview with Danny Dyer the 'actor' and his two youngest kids are called Sunnie (I could just about cope with that if it was spelt Sonny) and the other one is called, wait for it, Arty Jose............There are no words for that one!

    When I had my child, I spent weeks on end searching through every bit of conspiracy literature I could find making sure I was not naming my child a name any of the scum had previously named their soon-to-be-scum children. I finally settled on Angelo, because I knew no satanic zionist would ever choose a name with 'angel' in it.

    What about Angelo Donati? He was a Zionist. You gonna change the kids name?

    That's the name of a bottled water you can buy in Lidl. I can see this becoming a trend. Just imagine being called Volvic, Perrier, or Evian.

    Saffron
    They wouldn't know what saffron was if it hit them in the face!

    .

    I agree...just imagine being introduced to Volvic Perrier Evian MacDonald...it has a certain aristocratic ring?

    Or Vic, Perry, and their little sister Evian. Could work. Maybe.

    PS NOT "Ballygowan" though, ever.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,169 ✭✭✭The Peanut


    Friend of one of my kids is called Johnjamie; that is how it's spelled.

    Not John Jamie. After both grandfathers apparently; couldn't they just have gone JJ or something else?

    I am sorry to say I know a child by the name of Uisce. Her actual name. Poor creature. And she lives in rural Ireland, so can you imagine the písstake that she'll be to the other kids.

    I know of a child called Cattleya. That's pronounced cat-ah-lay-ah and not cattle-yah.

    Horrific.
