That's it. I'm officially changing my name to Stormageddon, Dark Lord of all the breathes. That'll surely rake the ladies in.

A side note to all of this, your personal experiences with people of certain namesakes will also color your preconceived notions of how a person will be. For instance, I haven't known a single woman or girl named Sabrina that wasn't a pompous, arrogant and impossibly selfish human being... While still somehow being very pretty or attractive to a lot of people.

This probably fits under the "exception to every rule" rule... Because James is a "strong male name" and is also extremely popular in European and American society... Because of it's intense popularity, you will find more exceptions... My name is Matthew, which is Hebrew for "Gift of God" which I thought was rather hilarious. I think it's a failure in translation, as it should probably be "Possesses the gift of God" which would make more sense, as the name is contributed in it's popularity and derives its meaning from the Apostle by the same name...

I digress... I don't much like my name, and I don't know what image (or reference you already have) for a "Matthew" you have, but I likely can't say I match most, if any of them... And since Matthew has been one of the most popular names (at least in the States) for the last century or more, it wouldn't surprise me at all if there are far more Matthews that don't quite fit the "standard".


Can you tell I'm a writer.... Bah, I drone on far too much.

xD Love it!

@Monzta: Jethro's a good name for an older guy. Makes me think of Gibbs....I'd get rid of the "Osman" though.


....Keith I'll agree isn't a great name, but of the two Keiths I know of, one is a total jerk and not attractive anyway and the other is a totally cute and talented person. *shrugs*

@Pubbles: and Sabrina--aside from the teenage witch, I don't know of any good ones. So I agree, experience can shape opinion.

After looking through them, the name lists do have really good (though common-ish) names. I really like the names Ian, Thomas, James, and William on there for guys.
My name in its spelling is only shared by about 3000 other women in the U.S. it seems, so of course it's not on the list, but I still find it pretty and wouldn't consider changing it.

Sure, you've been claiming so many different names since you were on PU...

That's not even the rest of my full name, and many people call me different names.. I can't really decide which name to use as my internet alias, so I put them all out.
