A lot of these people grew up being called “The Black Kim” or “The Fat Jessica” because there are only so many standard names. Think about what that does your self esteem? All of your experience is summed up as “Fat Jessica” for the entirety of your formative years.

Further, I am one of 15 people in my company with the same first name, and 3 of which have the same first name, last name. I spent easily an hour per pay period forwarding emails to the correct parties.

I get the concept but it’s a bit too far.

LodeMike ,

That’s a bullying problem bro not a name problem.

Tlaloc_Temporal ,

Forwarding emails to the correct address is a bullying problem?

LodeMike ,

Read the first sentence

My name is David. Do you know how common that name is? At one point in my life I knew and regularly interacted with 8 other Davids. That’s not even close to how many I’ve known over the years. That’s what happens when you have a name that’s been popular for like 3000 years. Biblical names are the usual Western example. My friend Mike - no the other Mike - no the other other Mike - agrees.

As someone with a name that is a slight variation in spelling and pronunciation of a common name, I’m so tired of explaining that don’t even correct people about it anymore. Please name your kid something fucking normal.

I have a very uncommon surname that is pronounced like it’s spelled. Unfortunately, no one can pronounce or spell it. Even if I spell it for them, they get it wrong.

Not that easy if you’re an international family… The name of our son is a very standard name but we had like 4 common spellings to choose from.

NaoPb ,

What does it mean to be an international family?

These are all amazing FFXIV pc names but not real names

I work in youth therapy. These are exactly the kind of names I regularly see on admit forms. Not saying it’s a direct cause, but theres a lot of coincidences when looking at youth therapy cases as a whole.

FryHyde ,

tf is so bad about Dusti Rose?

NaoPb ,

Isn’t it supposed to be Dusty?

Leviathan is just fucking awesome. Imagine some big power lifter dude and he’s named Leviathan.

“Cool, but what’s his real name?”

“That IS his real name”

NaoPb ,

I see there are people who think they are on a character creation screen while others just don’t think at all.
