I felt the need to "deconstruct" a couple of things in your post.

---

First of all:

---

Sixth, your own posting name is FairyGirl. Why is it not Emma, if you so despise the use of unusual names? Is it okay for you because you're not a celeb?

---

There's really no comparison between a posting name and a real, legal, given name, so this point really weakens your argument.

---

Second:

---

Finally and most importantly, what the f*k is so great about everyone having the same hundred names?

---

You talk about assumptions, and yet here you've made one yourself. Nowhere did she suggest that everyone should have "the same hundred names." She never said that every unusual name is a bad name. There is a huge middle ground between popular names and off-the-wall names like Apple, which wasn't even considered a name until Gwyneth Paltrow used it.
