That name...

[Buizel91]

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.

Funny you say the name Phil, theirs a drug addict Phil in Eastenders, or was till part of a Pub fell on him. (I don't watch it, it's just the last episode had a Pub on fire and it was the only thing on XD )

I know many Adams (That also being my name) and i have to say, they are the best people ever =D

And i know many Rebecca's, who are what we call "Off their rocker"

I know several Toms with the initails T.C

My uncle Phil-thy is awesome!

He's a largely successful businessman.

Also, my firend Phil is a butcher, never touched any drugs and his only vices are being head over heels in love with a dodgey girl and being uncomfortable with homosexuality (uncomfortable not a jerk though).

Also, never met a "cool" Andrew.

I only liked one of them, of about 7.

I remember that almost every person I know names Josh tends to be a huge dick, though I recently made a friend name Josh, so that sort of got disproven.

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.

That is scarily similar to anyone I know called Emma or Amy... and I do mean scarily. Maybe it's all some kind of conspiracy O.O

Every person I've met named Gordon is the greatest person on earth. Okay, so maybe I'M the only Gordon I've ever met, but still...

Well I know 4 Kevins but they're all pretty different.

If you're ever in my hometown and meet a Jenn you find attractive, go ahead and go for it - you might be surprised by how far you get. This is opposed to the local Jennifers, who you might just as well give up on, unless you're planning on a meaningful relationship or other such wuss-based activity.
Jenny? Could go either way. Flip a coin.

Phil Collins has done a lot of drugs. Not anymore but pack in the day, when he was primarily the drummer in Genesis, they were all on drugs.
And I'm not just talking about a little weed.

Y'know most of the guys I've met named Joe are real douche bags. Not all of them (it's a pretty common name) but most of them seem to be douches and psychos.

I've only ever met one George that wasn't a fat idiot.

Tiffany is a name I continually associate with dingbats. ... not the font for you typographers out there.

Funny, Ive known plenty of Emma's too, and they were all drunkards and cumbuckets. A good dozen of them too. There were two in particular who were actually friends with eachother and were actually called "The Emma's". They were the best examples of drunken cumbuckets ive ever seen in my life.

Haha, my Dad is named Phil and he went to Bible College and is now in sales . Kinda opposite yours huh?

OT, I know 2 girls named Cheyenne who are big into drugs, drinking, and sex.

 

[Z(ombie)fan]

I know AT LEAST thirty people (likely alot more than that) named Doug, one person named Bill but goes by the name Doug, and My name is Douglas. every "doug" including my self, has been tall and wears a hat.

Wait, what the fuck?

Also, people named Kaipo are always really nice for some reason.

 

[hyperhammy]

Every red headed girl I've met was called Elizabeth, and all of them were dumb bitches xD

Every guy I've known named Jeff ended up doing something awful he regretted. Except this one guy named Geoff who just is an intolerable snob.

I made the mistake of telling a girl I liked about this Jeff phenomenon during casual conversation. Turned out her brother's name was Jeff.
