  Think up your own name? No thanks. I like proper names, even if various famous people have the same name.

  Hardly anyone thinks up their own name, it's nearly always derived from somewhere.
  
  You think 100 years ago all the boys named Matthew, Mark, Luke and John was a coincidence?

  Quite right! I'm sure my kids Flopdegloop, Bamriddestrum, and Cheg will thank me later in their lives for coming up with my own original names.

  Parents or young parents can only up names from tv and film especially from kids or teens shows no shame
  
  think up names on your own rather than rely on tv and film to think for you

  
  Unless you choose a name no-one else has ever used then you are copying someone.

  How do these Islamic schools cope when all the boys are called Mohammed? Doesn't it get really confusing?

  Take a look at some usernames here. Would you want a kid with one of those?
  
  Although a kid named "A Zombie" would be a great name.

  Some people even go so far as to call themselves two different names, eh RickBarby...
  
  Did your old account get terminated or did you just get bored with it?

  You mean like a combination of their parents names? Like Sheldon and Amy = Shamy?

  Cuddly Romanian dictator and despot Nicolae Ceaucescu had a brother with the same name. He parents were so drunk when he was born, it was all they could think of.
  
  Now who else gives you information like that?

  People are still naming their boys Albert & Stanley?
  Both of the top 100 lists i.e. most kids being born, have quite normal names.

  The other day there was a thread saying about the name Mohammad becoming one of the most popular names in the UK which they used as proof to say that the Muslims were taking over. Can anyone tell me where in that list of names Mohammed comes now?

  Well, there's a fine line between creative and weird. My daughter has a unique name, but she's not named after anyone, although there was an inspiration for it. It's hard to come up with completely original names that don't sound like an exotic skin disease.

  What I find weird is when parents give their kids their own christian names. Apparently it`s not enough that male heirs carry the family name on but the parents are so arrogant and conceited that they want them to have the same first names as them as well!

  No - that's 'meshing'.
  
  Brian_higgy (correct me if I'm wrong Brian) is also DS member RickyBarby. I'm if not's him then I'm be mighty surprised but there can't be two people out with the same inability to write a coherent sentence, make countless pointless threads which amount to little more than a link to a current news story or article with a line or two on what they're about with no actual input or opinion, and when they do finally provide an opinion on a subject, it's usually so bizarre and illogical, you wish they hadn't!!

  That's one of the best things I've read all week. Take the internet, for you have won.

  Not to mention that those are still common names now (my name is Mark lol).
  
  The most unique names among people I know are a guy called Kalon, and a woman called Saint (although in that case it's not her birth name, but it is her legal name).

  It gets worse in the US when they add "the third" (or whatever) to their kid's name.

  Darn it! I was planning on calling my (as yet unconceived) daughter Bamriddlestrum. Ho hum, back to the drawing board.:(
