That name...

[mattttherman3]

Well I just had this thought, I have known 4 people named Phil in my life, and they are either drug addicts or cannot function socially. The 2 who cannot function socially I don't know very well but they didn't have any friends but were otherwise good people. Then there are the other 2, one is basicly a war hating hippy(white guy with dred locks, smokes 3 joints daily). And then there is the other, a drug addicted, drunk driving, statutory raping Phil.

So, I have never met a Phil that is, I guess the best word is normal.

Anyone have any similar experiences?

Also I have never been able to maintain a friendship with someone with the same name as me, Matt.

For a roughly five-year long period in my early 20s, it seemed like every second girl I hooked up with was called "Emma" and they always had a friend called "Amy" - almost every single one of them!

It was surreal. The Emmas were usually skinny and the Amys generally chubby, too. Bonkers crazy.

I haven't had a name come up alot, but...

Every girl I've ever dated/been interested in has had an L and an A in either their first or second name.

 

[Tartarga]

My bus drivers name is Phil and he is awesome.
OT: Every person I have met named Garret has been a douchebag. I'm not saying all people with that name are douches, just the ones i've met.

 

[Jack_Uzi]

My stepsister seemed to have a bit of a name fetish I guess. She dated a few guys that also had my name that I could compare to being a creepy, smeagol like person to a mindless deadbeat who didn't understand the meaning of "No."... you can call me Jack from now on

 

[Frequen-Z]

Everyone I've ever known called John has been ginger.

That only equates to around 3 or 4 people, but still.

 

[DeadlyYellow]

The three Bretts I knew were all redheaded and egotistical computer nerds.

 

[Mr. Omega]

HEY! MY name is Phil! I'm not a drug addict! And I CAN function socially...I just don't WANT to .

That being said, I have yet to meet a person named Andrew who is not either immature, completly full of themselves, or both.

 

[xmbts]

I have never met a Paul that I feel comfortable around.

 

[icyneesan]

Everyone I've ever met named 'Tom' is some sort of young and up and coming writer

 

[rokkolpo]

The name Chantal seems to be hogged by bitches. i know about 8 including my sister, which is a ***** by default because i am forced to spend so much time with her.

 

[teutonicman]

I'm friends with 4 or 5 Mike's. However I usually just address everyone by their last name so it's not a problem for the most part.

 

[Tim_Buoy]

it seems like every child molestor or rapist reported on the news is named timothy witch bugs me because its my name

I have one friend called Phil and he's a weed addict like that one of yours...intriguing.

I've also noticed that most girls called Amy are quite hot.

 

[Shockolate]

Five of my closest friends have had names that start with the Letter D.

Derek, Dan, Dean, and two David's.

Slightly related: Of my long-time four man ensemble (including two of those listed above) I was the only right hander.

 

[clipse15]

I have known 5 asian stephanies 2 of which I dated and the third one i slept with. I'm trying to make it all the way up to 10 stephanies.

 

[Erja_Perttu]

I know three Daves, who are similar only in the fact that they are male.

I also know many Laura's again, with no direct correlation.

All the Jack's I've met are pretty awesome though, and they drink a lot.

 

[Geekosaurus]

Heather always seems to be a fat girl name to me.

 

[Vilcus]

Everyone I know named Murray (my father's name) has a great sense of humor, and I always meet through my father (he knows roughly four Murrays that I know of).

 

[SuperCombustion]

I know 12 adams and they're all complete jerks...
