If your name was Alex would you date somebody named Alex?

A spinoff from perf's "Would you date a woman with the same name as your mother" thread.

If your name was Alex or something else unisex would you date somebody of the opposite sex, (or same sex if you're into that kinda thing) with the same name as you? I would, in fact I'd prefer it! It would be kinda sexy.

Why the hell not?

NO WAY!

Because in Romania, Alex is EXCLUSIVELY a MALE name.

 

[Abaddon]

Even if you met a hottie outside of Romania?

I work with someone named Chris who has a wife named Kris. Since she makes about twice the amount of money as he does, I sometimes spell his name as Kris just to hack him off.

Even if you met a hottie outside of Romania?

Yeah, in that case, of course. My post was mainly a joke anyway.

My name is Alex, and I met a super mega hot babe named Alex. I would have dated her in a second. Too bad I found out she was a really unpleasant person. Also, I was too shy at the time.

Yes, but not if my mother was also called Alex. That would just be weird. Also : confusing.

^ You win BOTH threads.

My name is also Alex. Want to go out some time?

I must say I don't understand this habit of english speakers of giving names that apply both to males and females. It's just wrong.

Well its not the same name if you do it properly, I'm really Alexander and a female Alex should really be Alexandra, just people bastardising it (That said, I will not accept being called Alexander )

This thread relates to me in no way what-so-ever.

This could actually happen with my name. I can't say I absolutely wouldn't do it, but it would definitely make me think twice.

 

[Smokey_Monkey]

This is really strange, my (male) friend Alex actually went out with a girl called Alex! Of all the male/female names to pick from!

 

[Love]

If you love her just screw the name...

 

[WillJ]

I don't know about the Alex thing, but I sure as hell wouldn't date a girl named William!

 

[odintheking]

Ha, the girl I like's name is Alex. Yeah, even if my name was Alex I'd still go out with her, .

 

[Disenfrancised]

Of course not - you might forget which one of them you are !

 

[emzie]

Yes. I probably wouldn't date a girl named Matthew though.
