Title: Do you wish you had a different name?
Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, April 27, 2008, 10:29:23
I quite like Ben. I wish it wasn't Benjamin. Benjamin is rubbish. Unless you seperate it out. Ben Jamin' mon. Word. I try to use just Ben on as much official documentation as I can get away with.

I'd much prefer to be called something righteously awesome, like Zeus, or Thor, or Apollo Creed, or Okapi, or Zed, or Ra The Mighty Sun God, or Pharaoh. Pharaoh would be a bit mint.

Does anybody else which they had a different name?

  I've always thought the naming business a bit random.....insofar as you've no say in the matter....there is of course the posibility of changing your name if not happy with it a la Swindon Town Dave.   If you want to change your name, I'm sure TEFers would go along wth it.   Just let me now and I'll use it next time I see you.

But then you'd be called Thomas Thomas. That would be silly.

My middle name is William. That makes Benjamin look ace.

I quite like my name.
I know a Paul Dicks, who started using his mum's last name eventually, for obvious reasons.

Ooh that website claims that there are six people with my name. Shame one of them has to be an up and coming film director and so knocked me off the first page of Google.

I don't mind my first name but I really don't like my second, names with alliteration are just gay. Nathan Norris.. It's stupid. I suppose technically my full name is Nathaniel James Norris which makes me sound quite posh but I've never liked it. My mum tells me she never liked the name Nathan as well, so what does that tell you!

Had a lucky escape though, I was going to have a double barrelled last name as my parents weren't married when I was born. Luckily my mum couldn't spell hyphen.

I strongly suspect that website's bollocks - pretty sure there's got to be more than 1304 Paul Davis's. Common as muck, we are.
