    I'm not fond of my middle name - Clayton - its hillbilly without any of the backwoods toughness.

    Bertha and Tracy are girl names that leave me cold - the former instantly makes the person sound fat and homely and the latter makes the person sound like a bimbo.

    Certain combinations of names can doom a person to anonymity for the rest of their life. For example, name your kid Jennifer Smith or Chris Jones and they will never achieve anything special - their names have removed all individuality.

    Lol, Moses. I thought that name died out, a few thousand years ago.

    Or Tracy. ;)

    My name hasn't shown up in this thread yet!

    Also, I would like to note that it's funny that both people who wrote that they disliked misspelled names actually misspelled the very word they used to state that or the word next to it :).

    You're not watching "Amish in the City", are you?

    Damn, actually I was planning on it. I had all the episodes downloaded from Bit Torrent, but never got around to actually watching it.

    Let me guess, Moses is an Amish kid?

    I once went to school with a kid named, Austin Powers.

    No joke.

    My friend used to work in the Harris County DA's office.

    He noticed there was a disproportionate number of criminals named Wayne

    In this boat, but I've never really thought of Ryan as a popular name? I can only remember 2 other Ryan's I've ever even had as acquaintances.

    Another lovely thing I found out last month: My Ex still uses my name as her boobie dancing name at TMC and wherever else she undresses at. Does that put me in the guy with a girl's with a guy's name category?

    [Rant] PS- If any of you pervs see her, please tell her LonghornFan says to "PLEASE LEAVE ME ALONE, HOOKER! I HAVEN'T RETURNED YOUR ELEVENTEEN THOUSAND VOICEMAILS FOR A REASON!...and Yes, you DO have one nipple bigger than the other. [/Rant Off]

    There were four (including me) in one of my elementary classes one year alone when I was growing up.

    That's funny. I've known people with both of those names. Actually, probably more than one of each.

    My given first name is absolutely unremarkable. Call it out in a public place and several people will look up. I never know whether or not to answer to it.

    Then I'm guessing your first name isn't Isabel.;)
