My name is Ari. I hate it. everyone assumes I'm Jewish when they hear my name, I'm not. I have no problem with Judaism, I just hate religion in general, so it pisses me off when people think I have one. Also, the name just sounds stupid, and not normal like Tom or Daniel or Fred or something.
Good name. I love that picture under your name. The Big Lebowski kicked ass.Ruzzian Roulette said:
A good way to put it, I feel the same way about Eric. That being my name.searanox said:
My proper name is of obvious Teutonic extraction and sticks out like a sore thumb in Anglophone company. People tend to mistakenly assume I'm the son of immigrants, or that I'm a native German speaker. (This causes some odd looks when traveling in Europe, meine Deutshe ist scheisse.) The rest of my upbringing was unique enough on its own, my sibling has a perfectly ordinary and popular name, and there is no family tradition of using that or any other deeply Germanic names.
In short, my name is unwieldy, embarrassing, and inexplicable.

My name's Eric, that's alright and stuff. My last name is Fortney (Fort-nee) so my designated nickname up until about 4th grade though was Fartney.
I love my name for it's complete and utter uniqueness.

my real name is tom, and i cant say i like it but most people dont like their own names. i always thought ike would be a cool first name, but im not cool enough for it. im not gonna tell you my last name. problem though is that its an italian last name, and not a particularly common one at that (google searched it and got either my grandpa or some artist guy, nobody else). it has the zz that you sometimes see in italian words. but just because its pronounced as a ts in words like pizza or mozzarella doesnt mean its always pronounced that way, but people do pronounce it that way sometimes cuz i live in the U.S. and most people dont know this stuff. also has a u in it but people often say uh rather then oo. and then theres my stoner art teacher who doesnt even get the right amount of syllables. dont think ive ever seen someone say it right the first time.
my escapist name is forever saturday, which comes from my email name. its alright, but a few days ago i thought of a better name. oh well.

Mine is Shane and im okay with it. It just seems to be the perfect compliment to my middle and last name. I also never caught any flak from any of my names. Which was probably because of my generic middle name and a last name so odd it actually couldn't be changed up at all! This thread has made me realize that i've had the perfect life.
