Re: anyone else annoyed with...

I dont like surnames used as christian names except as a middle name and then only if there is a family connection ie mothers maiden name
And i admit i hate it when someone gives their daughter a boys name when there are so many great female names to choose from
I also find many made up names to be totally frightful but Some made up names are pretty some will even stand the test of time after all names like
Geraldine-Wendy -Vanessa -Christabel-all began as invented names
Guess im a little behind the times but then iv never wanted to be trendy iv always preferred the old names family names

ugh, i hate these last names used as first names. i think they look so trendy and will very soon be so outdated and cutesy that these poor people will rush to the clerk of courts to choose something more appropriate for an adult
