2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

My full first & middle names are Simon Andrew James. My brother's have more point, as one is a traditional family name passed down

7:35AM Fri, April 23 2010

3770517476f65adaa3de54618c7f5e1a_normal @nathromeu

you don't want to know my first name. And for the record Nathalina is my second name.

7:35AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

Oh go on you little cunt.

7:37AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

Yeah I get that but mine wasn't passed from anyone.

7:38AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

I do want to know your first name!

7:38AM Fri, April 23 2010

B1c6a49e21e32987f5de5bc7e702de9a_normal @rjakesuk

it's just a poshness thing, or it allows parents to give crap first names to kids but a sensible middle name.

7:40AM Fri, April 23 2010

B1c6a49e21e32987f5de5bc7e702de9a_normal @rjakesuk

I believe the Beckhams have given their kids normal middle names so they can use those in later life

7:40AM Fri, April 23 2010

342829290_normal @NansVagina

it begins with a d... Lol

7:41AM Fri, April 23 2010

3770517476f65adaa3de54618c7f5e1a_normal @nathromeu

it's a secret. Only my parents use it.

7:42AM Fri, April 23 2010

Fc34f3a04aed11adc14f68e248916708_normal @superlative

Sometimes I think people just do it because it's what's done, or because they had another first name they also liked.

7:50AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

My middle name is worse than my first!

7:50AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

:-(

7:51AM Fri, April 23 2010

Fc34f3a04aed11adc14f68e248916708_normal @superlative

Is it Constance?

7:51AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

It's Kenneth. Feel free to laugh now.

7:53AM Fri, April 23 2010

B1c6a49e21e32987f5de5bc7e702de9a_normal @rjakesuk

mine is John ... not very exciting, just the name of my grandfather

7:55AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

That would the English version of my Scottish first name.

7:57AM Fri, April 23 2010

Fc34f3a04aed11adc14f68e248916708_normal @superlative

Oh dear. Yes that is quite unfortunate. IKS looks quite good as initials though.

7:59AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

Really? You think so? Fucking shocker of a name though, eh?

8:00AM Fri, April 23 2010

B1c6a49e21e32987f5de5bc7e702de9a_normal @rjakesuk

Ian is the Scottish version of John ??

8:00AM Fri, April 23 2010

Fc34f3a04aed11adc14f68e248916708_normal @superlative

Yes I think so! K is a cool letter, in my opinion. It's just a shame yours is followed by enneth.

8:01AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

It most certainly is.

8:03AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

Cunt.

8:05AM Fri, April 23 2010

Fc34f3a04aed11adc14f68e248916708_normal @superlative

Maybe you should change your middle name to Cunt, as you're so fond of the word.Or Kunt, so you can keep your monogrammed pyjamas.

8:59AM Fri, April 23 2010

2db677239caaf43078b717a79f687703_normal @Squibby_

I can't change my middle name to Kunt as already has it in the bag!
