Inspired by the line in a Kimya Dawson song, "I never met a Tobey that I didn't like" (this also being true of myself), I've been wondering whether you can judge people by their names...? Here are a few examples that are true, at least from my experience:

Justin: Wanker

ummm... couldn't think of any others right now, but y'know, just an idea...


empra  said about 1 year ago:

Most people I meet with my name are strange.

if you call someone toby they have permission to get bash ya... unless you really deserved it.


GnomeChomsky  said about 1 year ago:

Naomis & Renees seem to like stealing my boyfriends, but there are always exceptions.


paulie  said about 1 year ago:

wow that sarah phenomenon seems to be pretty accurate. beware red headed sarahs. double helpings of insanity and hotness, mixed with soullessness.

Inactivist  said about 1 year ago:

GnomeChomsky  said about 1 year ago:

My ex flatmate was a hot red headed Sarah. Not particularly insane though.


PaulsGrandfather  said about 1 year ago:

Can anyone think of a good Law-related name for a fun run team?

So far all I've come up with is Legals of Death Metal. I think I'm the only here who gets it.


paulie  said about 1 year ago:

run-in with the law

I'm scared of anyone named Carol.


fethehellcat  said about 1 year ago:

I've never seen this thread before, but I would just like to say that every single Luke I know is gay. Granted I only know 4.


Tramdriver  said about 7 months ago:

I like Barabbas and Rorty.


hungryhungryhippo  said about 7 months ago:

Cate Blanchett has just had a boy and named him Ignatius.

She may well think, Iggy Pop, but I just think Confederacy of Dunces and ''My valve! My valve!''

Imagine being named after a chronic farter.


shineslikerubies  said about 7 months ago:

aah, often i will like someone purely on the basis of their name (can be first and last name combination). in fact, i have based entire friendships around people's names, and the fact that i wanted to say them frequently.


La Bomba  said about 7 months ago:

i love the name kenny, its soo ahhh you just poped out of my stomach and i can't be bothered naming you so kenny will have to do.


sister  said about 7 months ago:

my father-in-law is called Ken, short for Kenneth. it's serious and scottish.

it's so not Kenny.


hungryhungryhippo  said about 7 months ago:

mother in law is not Barbara by any chance?


sister  said about 7 months ago:

no. don't worry. we're not married in real life.


hungryhungryhippo  said about 7 months ago:

I was hoping that there was a real life Ken and Barbie out there somewhere.


Manhattan  said about 7 months ago:

Rob's are quiet.
Charlie's are chatty.
Andrew's are good looking.
David's are insecure.
Leigh's are rebellious.
Rohan's are moody.
Daniel's are studious.
Simon's are funny.
Alan's are self assured.
Peter's are blokey.


Manhattan  said about 7 months ago:

Cate Blanchett just named her new baby boy Ignatius.

Ick.


feralmedia  said about 6 months ago:

Seriously, Jazz Randyboy is the best (short-term) name ever.


philip-box  said about 1 month ago:

hmmmmm I met a girl called Jasmine on the weekend.

I think I am attracted to girls with names that are botanical based. very sexy.


russiancaravan  said about 1 month ago:

hungryhungryhippo said about 5 months ago: I was hoping that there was a real life Ken and Barbie out there somewhere

I have a friend whose parents' names are Sid and Nancy.


anna89  said about 1 month ago:

That's pretty cool. A friend of mine's parents' names are Don and Donna.

Names fascinate me. I'm always slightly cautious/suspicious of people who share my name....I think it's a weird protective thing...


Tramdriver  said about 1 month ago:

Manhattan- I am insecure. :-/


gunshot_glitter  said about 1 month ago:

One of students is called Kung Fu Lay.


gunshot_glitter  said about 1 month ago:

one of my students**
