12 Weeks 5 Days: Grow Some Balls, Women!

What is up with these narcissistic guys that want to name their kids after themselves in excessive ways and none of these mother are saying NO? Like George Foreman naming all of is sons George Foreman... I understand one to pass down the family name, but the rest are just out of sheer self obsession. After one George Foreman Jr. that lady should have put her foot down, but it gets worse. I was telling my wife that his daughters are named George too, but I was wrong. Their middle names are George and one daughter's first name is Georgetta. How god damn egotistical and self indulgent must you be to name all 9 of your kids after yourself. And what the hell is wrong with his wife?!?! Just like Jermaine Jackson naming one son Jermaine Jr. and another Jermajesty. JERMAJESTY?!?! That woman should have smacked him on the nose with a rolled up newspaper and said NO! But all those guys are the "decider" and the woman has no say. What a sad sad way to be in a relationship.

And the rest of these self indulgent famous people who are so bored with their lives that they have to name their kid something crazy. I'm fine with something uncommon or even using a word that isn't commonly a name if it makes a nice name, that's how new names come about, but Moxie Crimefighter and Pilot Inspektor and David Carradine really named his kid I.P. Freely... Look, these are little people who are going to grow up into adults and then they are going to hate you. That's what kills me, these people don't think of the kid, they think of what other people will think of their wacky name. Don't get me wrong, the name I want for our baby is not some plain name and if it's a boy people will probably call me a hypocrit, but there is a limit and I don't think my boy name pushes that limit. Our boy will still have a normal life without explaining his name constantly. All these kids will be giving themselves nicknames by the time they are in 3rd grade.

  1. I have a name story... a woman in New York named her son 'Shithead' pronounced 'sh th ee d' How is this child going to feel about himself every time her writes his name, every time a teacher stumbles over it on the first day of school!!??!!

    I like a unique name, working with kids from other countries I get to enjoy and do my best to remember TONS of interesting names OR common names with unusual spellings. Favorites names of kids I have taught, Pharagdeep, Korosh, Mao, Favio, Paola, Joi, Woon Jae, Khanh, Airen....
