payback462 0 #1 May 13, 2003 ok so im really bored, and i thought id tell you how wonderfully fucked up my parents are so when i was born my parents named me Allen after my dad, and his dad. but then they and everyone else decided i should go by the name Nick, so everything was fine and dandy till i was like 7 or 8. then they friggin tell me that my name isnt really Nick. so im like wtf you assholes??? so since all my friends already knew me as nick it stayed that way until i 8th grade, then in high school everybody called me allen, but most of my closest friends know me as nick, everybody at the DZ knows me as allen (or more recently pussyboy, but we will NOT be disscussing that) and every time i tell somebody that knows me as one name that other people call me another name they think i dont act like a "Nick" or an "allen" whatever the hell that supposed to mean. why the hell did my parents decide to do that.

westcoastchica 0 #9 May 13, 2003 gee, and i thought i had it bad. my name is lara...not laura. it came froma movie called dr. zhivago. it is pronounced Lah (as in fa la la la) Rah (as in rah rah rah, sis boom bah...which i never actually said in my years as a cheerleader, but it seems to be widely recognized...ok, shut up lara). anyway, it doesn't SEEM that difficult to me, but apparently some people's mouth were just not meant to say it right. i get lair-ruh every now and then, i get laura a lot, sometimes i get people that won't even try because they know it is neither of those but they can't say the correct one, so they call me by a nickname. my foreign students mostly called me la la. i even have a few that are bound and determined to give it a shot every time they see me and the make some really funny noise that vaguely sounds like my name while they contort their mouth in some odd manner that you wouldn't think possible unless you witnessed it. i have a hand full of friends that call me by my correct name. most of the people don't know to say lara instead of laura. and sometimes the ones that do say it right, try and correct the ones that say laura, and it becomes this bizarre game of phonetics...and really by that time i have usually walked away to get a chili dog or something. it doesn't bother me much at all and i pretty much answer to anything...well, maybe not "pussyboy" *ahem*..but you know what i mean. wow...what a freakin' ramble fest. dude...and i was just going to say "i feel your pain."

Anyone who hasn't heard of Dr. Zhivago probably is a serious fan of Superman. Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it.

I'd make the Cyclops shine my shoes, turn Wolverine into my personal body guard, and I'm sure I could think of a few things to do with Storm, Jean Grey, and even Mystique.

ginandjuice 0 #20 May 13, 2003 I understand your pain. My name is Ginny, like Gin (the liquor) and knee. But i have gotten everything from Jenny to Jeanie to Guinea (like the guinea pig). And the thing that gets me the most is when im signing up for something, i will spell my name before saying it, not to confuse letters and they ALWAYS spell it wrong. My name always comes out as Jinny. I get so aggravated. So i usually leave stuff under my last name cuz its not as easy to confuse. GINNYThe words I have to say, May well be simple but they're true, Until you give your love, There's nothing more that we can do-David Bowie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westcoastchica 0 #21 May 13, 2003 have a friend with the same exact name ginny! and she has the same problems. it always leaves me baffled. and i find myself doing the same correcting thing people do for my name. i'm like "IT'S GINNY PEOPLE! HOW FREAKIN HARD IS THIS!?" i can usually keep my mouth shut, but it's the people that hear her say her name, and then look at it written, and say something differently. leaves me with a big fat WTF!? written all over my face.

divingduck 0 #22 May 13, 2003 At birth I was supposed to be Chelsea. Only at birth was my name changed to Amelia. So I get teased all the time. It usually starts with the Amelia Bedelia thing. And then it goes to Amelia Earhart. And then when I tell them who I am named after (my great grand mother), they forget. so I usually get called any of the following: Andrea Amanda Ashley Adrian (I have no idea why) Amy (which I went by for 3 days back in grade school) Alicia Arriana [insert any other A name here] ...and, for some other reason, Janae... Good luck nick. Or allen. Or neither. Or nallen... If I loved you anymore I would have a stroke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
