[Opinions] Re: Random BA's [Unusual Names] - Long
in reply to a message by Sabrina Fair
Those are some spectacularly bad names there. Somebody could staff an entire escort service, male and female, with some of those names. Harleyquinn? Please. Prince and Princess? Gag me witha spoon. Ryder? that has always struck me as a nasty name to give a kid.
And the name Cherokee always irritates me. From what I've seen, people who actually give this name tend to be white even as the driven snow, and often love to say "We're part Cherokee." Right. The only "part" of them that's Cherokee is the part of their butt that hits the seat of their Jeep.
I know somebody is bound to want to argue about this, and say well, we name boys Scott and Roman and they're not Scottish or Roman. Indulge me please. This is a special personal pet peeve of mine.
BTW: I like Sterling, and you rarely see it anymore despite the overuse of "jewel" names like Jade, Ambe and yes, Dymond.
Ps: IMy rule about using place and word names is: if you would lose points for spelling it your way on a test, don't use it.
