I am my first name and I live up to my last name when it comes to basketball.

    Thanks for stroking my ego mason. Michael means "he who is like god". :D

    Lucifer is pretty much my arch nemesis since I'm God, according to mason.

    "He who is like God" not "is God"

    Basically, you should be a really really really good person. But Lucifer is still you enemy either way. :)

    Yeahhhhh.. Stephen is definitely Steven. Sorry.. Poor kid (for having to explain that to everyone). You must battle many words in the English language then, because so many aren't pronounced phonetically.


    My name apparently means "pure". Ha, yeah right. :rolleyes:

    The funniest name I ever came across was a guy named Neptune Pringle. Nice guy, but a strange name.

    Also, I work in the NJ mental health system and a while back we came across these two neo-nazi parents who named their kids Adolf Hitler Campbell (boy), Joycelynn Aryan Nation Campbell (girl), Honszlynn Hinler Campbell (girl), Hons Campbell (boy). Here is a link to the article....http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/0...n_1561046.html

    I have no problem with parents naming their kids whatever the hell they want....as long as it isn't obviously going to negatively impact their lives.

    While I get SUPER tired of Rocky references and nobody can ever spell my name right, I really like what my name means. In German, Adrienne means "dark woman of the sea".

    My mom chose Adrienne because she didn't want me to have "any of those stupid-sounding nicknames". :rofl: My older brother wasn't as fortunate; he has to carry the 4th generation of "William", so I used to call him "Free Willy" all the time as a kid.

    I went to school with a guy named Marco Polo, and one of the janitors was named Harold Hyde (and nobody every called him Harry) The principle was Robert Towne (R Towne)

    My name (Mark) means 'Warrior' or 'dedicated to Mars' (the God of war) If that's so then I make a pretty soft and flabby warrior :D
