Seriously! She's a proper fucking legend. His middle name is Christopher so they can call him that if they want, but I hope they never do.

my mum works with people who

called their kids Pagan (girl) and Glasgow (boy).


Aw, I like the name Glasgow.

But it'd be weird being called Glasgow and living in Glasgow, and I could never guarantee that I won't move back to Glasgow and I'll probably never have kids anyway.

Pagan is also a nice name.


Oh dear...


Glasgow is a dreaful name

If you're going to name your child after a place in Scotland then at least call them Dundee.


Why?


Or Scot.

But that's not funny.


Kirkcaldy?

The STI capital of Scotland


Cambuslang?

Now we're just naming places in Scotland.


What's it called?

Cumbernauld!


Boak


East Kilbride.

Voted ned capital of the UK in some poll.

Also where I stay.


Note.

I DO NOT think East Kilbride would make a good name for a child.


Easterhouse is surely worse?

Or somewhere like Paisley? Or Castlemilk? Or Govan? Or Ibrox? Or Kinning Park? East Kilbride probably wins it purely because of its size


There's a guy

involved in making Lost whose surname is Glasgow. I always enjoy that in the credits.


didn't Nicholas Cage do this?

also, she's not a legend, she's a massive, massive dumbfuck.


Because she named her son Kal-El

which makes her a legend. I thought it was pretty clear?


My friends have named their newborn baby Dante

This is easily the best name ever. If I was called Dante I'd tell people I was related to Satan.


No, they'd start telling you that

in School, and by the time you were 12 your given name had caused irreconcilable differences between you and your parents. You'd have your name changed by deed poll to David.

Man, there's a lot of tenses

gone on in this post that was above


potd


It's the single most disgustingly

upper middle class name ever.


yeah

fucking alien toffs should piss off back to their castles in krypton


Lies!

I love the name Dante. Dante Alighieri was my childhood hero.


posho names

name me feel ill.

henry, jude, rupert, lucinda, tabitha etc


I know a girl called Camilla

But she just insists on being called 'Cammy'. Eurgh.


The only female Cammy I know

is in Street Fighter 2. I'd like it to stay that way please.


I swear every baby girl I know

is called either Martha or Matilda.

I want to take a machine gun to the lot of them.


my brother is called rupert.

it's well funny.


Nice one harold


someone i know was called Skybear

fo serious. hippy parents.

His name is now Matthew and he works for PwC


haha!

He should work for them and still be called Skybear.

'Hello, I'm Skybear, I've come to audit your reconciliations'

That would go down a treat.
