Pans Jambo Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Aye whats in a name? So the most popular boys name for the umpteenth year (AGAIN) is “Jack”. So my question is: if parents know this is THE most popular boys name for many a year, why choose it for their own child? Surely they would think that the kid will be one of 37 “Jacks” when he goes to school. Are most parents just neds that get pregnant these days?

Marvin Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Just don't call your kid Adolf. https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/12/18/neo-nazi-couple-named-son-adolf-hitler-jailed-membership-far/amp/&ved=2ahUKEwiDrq2yu6vfAhXsSxUIHTMwCUgQqUMwC3oECAQQBg&usg=AOvVaw3CFjPSEwx8jQuYvMYSIMxU&ampcf=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Claudia apparently has roots in the Latin for Lame. Even more appropriate to be called Lame Potatoes.
