The most ******** existant quite common first names.

All of the examples are the names of people at my school. The idea is that permutations of common names are taking over, ones pronounced the same but spelled different.

And I would know about the Alexander thing, it's my name. But there are three girls in my class who also go by the shortened 'Alex' (two Alexandras and an Alexis)
 
The Root name of Alexander is Ἀλέξανδρος, which is greek (Aleksandros or something like that, and it means defender of man). Very famously known for The Macedonian King, Alexander the Great. I should know, my name is Alexander. and I hate being called Alexandria.

So as to not de-rail the thread, Peach and apple. :shake:
 
And what do you think about names some "revolutionary" parents were calling their kids in Soviet Russia in the twenties? Like:

Leri (Lenin, Electrification, Revolution, Industrialization)
Ninela (spell that name backwards!)
Vladlen (Vladimir Lenin)

etc.

Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) invention of such names stopped in the thirties...
 
I dated a girl once named "Pandora" of all things... and she had a sister named "Sabrina", makes me wonder if the parents were into witch craft
 
in scotland, mostly glasgow i think, you'd find a lot of women called 'Senga'.
Norwegian for "the bed". I wonder why parents would think of something like that?

In English, I suppose the name "Asgeir" doesn't sound too good.
In Oslo around the start of the 20th century, it was fashionable to name girls "Closetta". That is a polite term for "toilet", conjugated to be feminine.
 
Pet names:

My friend has a cat named Ms. New Booty (from the song).

And a dog named Left Nugget.

We made jokes about Left Nugget for weeks.
 
Somebody in my old math class was named "jesus castro". :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
The "ghetto" names over here in the US can get pretty odd sometimes....
