If you name him “Andre the Giant” and he ends up being small, will that cause problems for him?

I see a kid fighting his way thru life.

Sue

Naming has changed. Granddaughter named the child Raza from a tv program. Typically, hospital misspelled it to Erza. And even more incredible, Granddaughter didn’t make them correct it. As if the child’s name was not important.

There is a story that a man named his two sons “Winner” and “Loser” as an experiment. “Loser” ended up being very successful. “Winner” ended up being a loser. Supposedly a true story.

It used to be that children were required to be baptized with the names of recognized saints. Later in life, some people required to submit their baptismal certificates were surprised to find that their baptized names were quite different than what they had been called heretofore. The priest had just changed it to something sensible and traditional.

I had a cat named Buddha, but the vet spelled it Booda

Daddy wants his son to be tough. He may be sorry when the kid turns on him.

Rambo and Terminator are good names. I named my German Shepherd Axl for Axl Rose. If I had another. I would have named him Slash.

My uncle Willie had his brother John take his eye test, so that he (Willie) could become a train engineer. But John accidentally gave his own name at the test. My uncle Willie got the job, but thereafter was always identified as John (William) X…(back in the 50’s I believe)

They seem told to be having a child?? Could be adopted but……..

This is why you don’t let men who listen to Joe Rogan name their sons (or daughters)!

What!!??

Let the misery begin.

and St Michael the Archangel is the baddest of the bunch….

I wouldn’t worry about the name, the important thing now is to use the correct pronoun.

Dude’s father’s name was Terminator.

He’ll probably grow up to become a sensitive artist.

If you’ve worked for a school or other public place where children’s names have to be registered and you see a lot of them (as I have), you’ve seen a lot of crazy names.
