Do people just hate their children? There’s so many good names to choose, just the longest list of them. There’s nicknames upon nicknames, but every goddamn child has to have a combination of letters that’ve never been used before. Look, I’m not saying that everyone should name their kids Edith and Edward, but we also don’t need a bunch of Brekinleighlynnes and Jahckxsonz running around. I feel very passionately about this subject. Pick a name that’s either been used before (that isn’t ass), or at least a name that sounds like a fucking name. I feel very strongly about this subject.
My name is is 8 letters long. 15 if you want to count my moddle name and spaces. Unfortunately i have a very uncommon first name, and an even less common last name that makes me 100% the only person on earth with my name.
Yeah, it’s annoying to spell my 5 letter last name once in a while. I can only imagine it gets quite a bit worse with increasing frequency and letters. If you don’t mind my asking, what’s your first name?
As someone with a long name, the bane of my existence is signing online forms without a touch screen. I just had to sign off on four different consent forms online for a new doctor’s office - using my mouse.
I usually take time with my signature, but for this I did the lazy thing of a stylized first letter, followed by a squiggle. I don’t like doing that and don’t want to do that… but I’m tired, y’all.
It’s a valid question in a convo about names. I’m curious lol
I understand the need for privacy, it’s important. I asked if they’d be willing to share, I just like crying at Tragedeighs once in a while.
My oldest has a name from one of my grandparents’ ancestors (I think their grandparent or great-grandparent) that’s not common in my country (my grandparent was an immigrant). The name is easy to pronounce, but unfortunately there’s a celebrity with a similar name, so people always mistake it for that name.
The other two are very common here and haven’t caused issues. But the one foreign name has been a serious problem, but fortunately my kid loves their name, and it’s unique without being a pain to spell.

This whole post triggered me.
I love my mum and dad very much.
But it gets somewhat tedious when you have to spell your name quite possibly over a hundred thousand times in your lifetime.

Ok BobBarkerBagels, we know it’s you.
(I think the math checks out - it’s very late or very early)

Mother’s maiden name as well, if you please.
Would also love to hear your thoughts on your first pet’s name?
Oh, and your 3rd grade teacher’s name, just to compare.

They just think they’re the only people that matter in the world. Main Character Syndrome is a wild drug.
