lucien (luuuu seee nnn) that i like :D

A. Waterfield
17-06-2003, 21:48
Alexander...............hummmm.................nop e dont like it.
ken is better.....
i dont like being called jamie..dont know why
maybe its because of my p.e teacher (allways called me that) :rolleyes:
Stephen - it's an OK name, but only the police and my mom call me Stephen, more people call me Steve but most (including the wife) call me Wak :D
James is my middle name, but I thought it would be good to change it to danger in honour of Austin Powers - Steve Danger Walker - got a ring to it I think
Nope, hate mine.
Which is why I'll probably change it by the end of the year to something far better - Leon

Michael. Thats to my mum and dad, everyone else its Mick which I prefer. Still dont really like it though:|
Tracy....have no strong feelings about it one way or the other, it's just what I've always been called lol.
Used to hate people calling me 'Trace' but I've mellowed with age :D
im not telling you what mine is:rolleyes:
Michael here. Not keen on the full name, but I like Mike. Same as my dad..and his dad...etc etc
Calling me 'Mick' 'Micky' or 'Mikey' is basis for a kicking.

Agreed :thumbs: :D
Paul, hellish boring, middle Name's Edward which in some ways is worse
my Brothers first name is Gideon, which he used to hate when he was younger but likes now, reckons it helps him pull
Duncan, could be worse (maybe) - at least Dunk (Dunc) doesn't sound as bad IMO.
Sandra-Maria Elizabeth (yep all three and in that order). I've always been called Sandy even by my family or Peachie or Pebbles..two nicknames that seem to have travelled with me through the ages for some reason.
I'm not a Sandra I don't think but Sandy seems befitting somehow :)
Me first name is Alexander :rolleyes:
Abreviated to Alex is better, though just call me Vez ;)
First name = Simon
Second name = Robert
But everyone apart from family calls me Balaam (Bay - Lum) which is my last name
PhilMorrison
18-06-2003, 09:07
I'm a Philip, but if any1 ever calls me that I'll chin them (including my Mom) Phil is better (slightly less upper class gay bloke IMO ;) ) but I still don't like it. If I have a little boy he'll be called Chile :cool:

My real name is..... wait for it [takes deep breath]
Ricky James Mark Hartley Deacon:eek: :eek:
But you can call me rick;), or moondog:D
Being called Damien has it's advantages sometimes!... I've just never discovered when and what the advantages are!
Mine's Graham and I can't say that I'm that bothered about it either way. It was my Dad who kinda chose it as he was a motorsport nut thro the 60's and 70's and named me after Graham Hill the ex F1 world champ! Can't really ever be one of those "kewl" names can it, but the association I think is pretty neat coz in his day Mr Graham Hill was a pretty unique character. :cool: ,and pretty handy behind the wheel!

Full Name is
Timothy Andrew Simpson
Never been called Andrew in my life... NO one calls me Timothy anymore unless its to wind me up... its Tim. So take note, or read Phatty's response...;)
And I have a sister called lisa;) you think Im joking dont ya! ha i kid you not!
She gets loads of trouble... do you play the saxophone and stuff.
victoria jayne king
i only get called victoria if my mum wants to be serious, everyone else calls me vickie....
at school i used to be called glen...... my mum's married name is glenister and i had to use that at school......
i've been called missy on the internet now for about 3 years, used it as a user name on a website and it's stuck..... kinda grown into my alter ego.......mmwwwhhhhaaaaaaaaaaa
my brother has 5 names........ max oliver gordon duncan keith......
he tends to run out of space on official forms.....
i think we picked nice names for our boys
morgan david john
jacob anthony
but the best names have to go to two of my relatives

Mines Steven Terry, dont like Terry, Stevens OK but everyone calls me Steve which is better.:)
I knew a kid from school called Wayne Carr. I'm not kidding, honestly, and I expect you can guess the amount of 5hit he got about it. His parents must have been either just naive or particularly spiteful when they named him.

Nathan Paul, and you should have seen Pauls_s13's face when he was trying to get my middle name out of me hoping to take the piss :D

nice pic bubble that car is fine ! :D :notworthy
My name is Vincent :rolleyes:
Vince will do though, I thank you...
Peter John. Nobody's ever called me Peter that I can remember. My parents call me John, the police call me Sir and everyone else calls me JB :)
Dad decided on Hayley (after Hayley Mills) although I use to always be called 'H'. Hated Hayley growing up as I never knew anyone with that name (it's common now) Although growing up with the surname Ford, I was usually called Capri or Escort.
We DON'T talk about my middle name. :mad: :mad: :mad:

Anyway ... I would be Andrew George
Prefer Andy though, if I get called Andrew I think I've done something wrong. George is after my father (thanks Dad :mad: :D ). Most people at work call me Taft or Tafty (my surname is Taft), though growing up my parents used to call me Fred :confused:

I think "Jon" was the first decision I ever made.

My first name is Andrew, middle name John. But everyone just calls me Aitch - a contraction of my surname. For some reason, I hate being called Andy, but don't mind being called And. :confused: I think I'm just weird!:wack:

That's their problem - be secure in the knowledge that you've got a cool name. If they can't get it right then they're ignorant fcuks who aren't worth your time. :nod:

Benjamin Simon Draper
Benjamin - Son of Right Hand. Hmmm. Don't know what to make of that! I think I was named after my mother's father. I prefer to be called Ben even though I've wanted to change my name since I was about 8. My name always seemed really old-fashioned!
Simon - He Who Hears. Bwhahahahaha. This seriously takes the pi$$. I am actually profoundly deaf:wack: :smash: :wack: :smash::D Must remember to ask my mother why she called me this. Since I was over 3 months prem, they had to choose my name quickly as the Doc's weren't sure if I was going to survive!
Draper - Cloth maker/seller as in Drapery. Obvious, really!

Was christened Thomas David Park.
I prefer to be called Tom, as (as is usuall) I only get called Thomas by my mum when she's in a strop with me.
For some reason though, it really pisses me off if people get my surname wrong. I've been called Parks, Parke, Parkes, Parker and they all wind me up severely. Even some people still insist on writing doen my surname as Parks after I've reminded them that there's no 'S' in my surname.
Mind, I think the surname Park sucks ass and want to change it back to my mothers family name of Lewis. I don't know if I can be assed though. It'll only be more hassle. :(

Still can't pronounce that one :(
Is the "j" sound in Arieh a "J" or a "yuh"(sorry can't think of another way to express it) sound?

I think you need to hear it to say it. Some sounds are impossible to put even phonetically :)
this is what I was thinking.
I think Mr Bean Bandit Sir is going to have to find a microphone and record his name as a wav and then stick it up on the net.
Sebastian - I mean really, what the fvck were they thinking! Is it any wonder I use "seb" instead, which is still pretty pants if you ask me.
