Re: Liam or Ian?
in reply to a message by queenv
I like Ian enormously and would have considered it seriously (actually, left to myself I'd have used it) for my son, but my SIL had just divorced an excellent Ian so this seemed tactless and I didn't. I find it difficult to assess it as a name, as all the Ians I've ever known have been wonderful people, with one exception and he was merely bland.
Liam, as I have said before on these boards so bear with me, reminds me of obese Irish long-distance truck drivers with the cabin full of pizza boxes, coffee mugs and Guinness bottles. Liam wears a vest (in Europe! Stateside, he wears a singlet I think) and denims that display his ample rump; he explains his idleness about personal hygiene as designer stubble. I could go on about his taste in music, but I won't. Liam is an un-name, fit only for something out of a horror story that rises out of the plughole of the kitchen sink and spreads toxins and terror.
