If I ever put on loads of weight, I think I'd change my name to "Fatty Foods". That'd make me chuckle every day  TeddyR

I know a girl named Aidan.  There's quite a soap-opera connected to her, in my eyes.

When I met her, she was in the social circle of a couple friends.  She seemed decent enough, though there was something about her that I didn't trust from the start.

Moving in the next year at school, I discovered that she was dating one of my suitemates.  She was also living across the hall from, and was one of the closest friends of, the girl I started dating shortly thereafter.  I remain wary of her.

Towards the end of the school year, she breaks up with my suitemate, and asks me to meet her so she can tell me the story and get my thoughts, since she considers me one of the wisest and most trustworthy people she knows. 

Shortly thereafter, she starts asking me to essentially babysit her now-ex boyfriend.

Over the summer, communicating through instant messenger, she becomes quite open to me, freely discussing topics like sex, etc.  My opinion of her has dipped slightly due to being used as her messenger boy quite a bit.

Early this past fall, her ex-boyfriend comes to me in tears.  Aidan and he had always had a policy of absolute honesty, and they remained friends after breaking up.  He learns that she'd been lying to him and keeping secrets from him in regards to sexual matters, and he is absolutely devastated.  After spending a couple hours listening to him and comforting him, my opinion of Aidan drops very far.  She comes to me a couple days later and tries to convince me that she's in the right, and her ex-boyfriend has no right to be upset about anything she's done.  I tell her that the depth to which she takes moral relativism is revolting.  (Yes, I know I'm on a pretty high horse here.)


Anyways, that's the saga of me and Aidan.


If/when I have kids, I think I'd like to name a son Joshua Robert, and a daughter Sophia Elizabeth.

dusting of this topic with a interesting thing I saw in a Swedish newpaper. it was about this couple that wants to name their child Angelic as second name. the funny thing is that the same word for angelic in Swedish could also be angel corpse, and because of that the government said no.  TeddyR

As much as I hate parents giving children dumb names, the idea of the government telling you what you can name your kid is worse.

well, its more telling what you can not name then, then the other way around. and they only stop a few names, the only 2 I can come up with right now is angelic and Metallica.

and there is apparently 12 people in Sweden with the name twilight.

No kidding. whats next? putting a limit on how many people name their child Britney or John every year?.. actually if they had something like that I wouldn't have the same first name as thousands of other girls who were born in the 70's.    TeddyR

Government restrictions on baby naming are like legislating common sense and good taste. Not an entirely unattractive idea, but too totalitarian, not to mention futile.

I remember that the local Italian government said no to "Asia" Argento, on her birth certificate her name is officially Aria. There was also that flap awhile back about that family who named their kid Adolf Hitler. I don't agree with governments restricting what you name your kids, but naming them after nazi war criminals is probably at the very least in bad taste. Of course then there's this guy.  TeddyR

Yeah, it's an odd one, isn't it ?

You should be able to name you're kid what you want, but sadly there are people who have kids that really shouldn't have.

Adolf ?
C'mon, it's a child, not a a cheap joke. The children need to be protected, otherwise they're gonna grow up getting the mick taken out of them.

Wortcov is right. It's more what you can't name as opposed to what you can name.
