I know. I loved manga as a tween.
It's a very romantic name, I think.
I've met a couple 'Ronan's which I think is an Irish name.I know. I loved manga as a tween.
Venardhi for the win. He's Japanese and she's Irish. I inquired about the name when she told me; a way of recognizing her baby's mixed heritage.I've met a couple 'Ronan's which I think is an Irish name.I know. I loved manga as a tween.
Nope. His last name is, unremarkably, Anderson.
I, who also has an unique name, hate unique names. It is so far a life time of correcting people, informing people that I know how to spell my name, and telling people that my mother was not a flower child.
I come from a long line of Williams, Fredericks, Davids, and Donalds, there was a couple of Frederick Williams as well.
Yet, my awesome mother took my dad's name, a good ole Latin, Terrence, took out the n, and sentenced me to a lifetime of interacting with the truly moronic people that exist out there.
I cannot wait for a NA kid to have the name New York, London, and Lincolnshire as first names or maybe United States, England, Wales, or Russia as first names.

I wonder how cool she'd have thought it was if she wanted to go into law, or some serious occupation.
Don't get me wrong, I love Frank's music, but it's wrong to saddle a kid with a crazy name just for a joke, or some sort of social commentary.
^And don't forget Dweezil Zappa.
As a teacher, I've heard all kinds of unusual names:
Quriosity, Reality, Marvalous (sic), January, Eunice (male), Xumonia, Little Moses...and those are just from the past couple of years!

Dweezil actually had a more sensible name on his birth certificate (Ian Donald Calvin Euclid Zappa) because the hospital refused to register him as Dweezil. However when his parents took himj home they just called him Dweezil and it wasn't until he was 5 years old that he discovered that Dweezil wasn't his real name. He insisted that the nickname should be his legal name so it was legally changed.
Moon Zappa says she loves her name.
If she was a lawyer, or went into another serious occupation, she could just change her name. It is very easy to do.
My brother's name is Richie. That is what was on his birth certificate. It isn't short for Richard. However when he became a lawyer he start to call himself Richard (and I assumed he also legally changed it) because he decided that Richie was too childish for a lawyer.
My wife and almost... And I mean ALMOST named our daughter Cartagia..
But we chickened out and went with Chloe.
However, our sons name is Miles Felix. At the time we didn't think about it. but he's our little MF'er....

That's great. I had a friend in high school named Annashay. Her last initial was S. The reason for her name was that her parents originally wanted to call her Anna Shay, but soon realized what her initials spelled.
My niece is named Kearah. Originally it was going to be Kira, after the DS9 character but my mom, Kearah's grandma likes to fiddle with the spellings of names. As does her sister who goes by Souix, legally "Sue".
I have four god daughters. Gryphon, Arwen (yes, after that Arwen) Morgan and Faylan.
My name while not at all uncommon, still seems to confuse people, especially Americans. Its simply "Geoffrey".

We should start a club or something.
I'm pretty sure I remember talking to a Jedi on the phone when working for Sky. There was a Mr. A Gay. If he was gay it's a great introduction.
