Real Names

Well this topic has probably been done before...But I just wondered if you ever look at the kind of stuff people post up...and try to think what that persons real name is?...I like to try and guess peoples real names from screen names and stuff.......All I will say bout mine is it aint Bernard

 

Jack Force?

 

I don't tend to think what a forum posters real name is, my mind likes to imagine what they might look like. I'm guessing MrChuffy your real name could be Mr Huffy and you have a beard or glasses or both.

 

Mike Hawke

 

Well I do have a goatee thing...but as yet no glasses ...which is amazing cos I do masturbate a lot ....But na you're wrong with Mr Huffy.

 

Interesting you have a goatee thing, and that masturbating thing I would never have guessed.

 

Is that you Elvis? :guitarist:

 

Well as much as I love the guy ...I think one might get the micky taken a bit with that one....but sayin that I am gonna change my middle name to Presley....so you are half right heat

 

Well yes I am a big fan of masturbation....sadly its all one gets these days.....I think theres a picture of me on here somewhere....not of me masturbating i mean of my goatee

 

i knew it! you're actually ms chuffy, aren't you?

 

every name is really a name, so what is a name that isn't real?
most of us use names that aren't what we have to use to sign a check with, or a legal document, but how does that make them not real?
i would be more interested in a culture, who's naming conventions are not the ones most of us are familiar with.
even completely u.f.o./e.t. alien ones.
the whole point of having names is to uniquely identify one person from another (or is it? apparently there is a majority of people who seem to think otherwise. i wonder what they DO think names are for?)
which is why i see 'common' names, and the all too common practice of naming any person, place or thing 'after' someone or something else, as kind of rather self defeating.
(when i was little, i thought everyone's name was unique, rather then a shortened or altered form of some otherwise common one)

 

Slightly of topic I know, but at least you get a good choice of different girls doing that, kind of makes up for lack of the real thing.

sorry my mundane name is so mundane its not worth mentioning, other then the patrilinial part being spelled with an ea AND two l's.
that's why i never use unless when i have to sign a check or something. but i really don't like the patralinial naming convention either,
and much prefer locatives. thus if there's even another themnax, i'm themnax of lananara where further distinction is required.

i'm sorry again, but this whole idea, of your birth or legal name, being somehow more "real" then your self naming, is just plain wrong.

 

I had this horse....but he didn't have a name.
