Have you seen this? Have you heard about this? What's the point of learning the meaning of your name? I mean come on. . .
I was having a conversation with a friend the other day, and she asked me what my name means. I told her that I have no fucking idea, and she seemed shocked. I missed the point. I don't understand why people care what their name means, because it's obviously going to be something good. Nobody is going to give their child a name that means 'asshole' or 'douchebag' or whatever.
An example you ask? 'Adolf' means noble wolf. Adolf Hitler was a big dirty Nazi. There is no correlation there. I don't know, just seems fucking stupid placing importance in your name as I've been lead to believe, many do.
Thank you, you've been a terrific audience.

Baby Names
Have you seen this? Have you heard about this? What is with baby names? I mean come on.
Naming a baby or child is different than naming an adult. Children have cute names like Billy or Matty. How is a human supposed to grow up normally, beginning at infancy, with a name like Winston, for example. People are not going to find a child with the name Winston cute. Children are not going to want to befriend, or share their sandwich with a kid named Winston. And there is no teacher that will play favorites to some asshole kid named Winston. And you know the kid is going to be an asshole, because his parents are obviously assholes for naming him Winston in the first place. And asshole is a dominant genetic trait.
You can't just throw 'baby' in as a prefix to a name, and expect it to be suitable for a baby. Parents need to take some responsibility for names.
