Nucky Thompson Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Why do Schemies always call their kids daft names after 'stars' they hear on the TV. It really gets on my tits when you see Junkies shouting on their kids. The amount of Britnays, Jamie lees, Chantelles, Juniors, TJs, Brooklyns is unreal:cool:I even heard a schemie calling her kid Bacardi the other day:eek:

blondejamtart Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 There's one I know of who has daughters called (I kid you not) Demi and Madonna. I also know of a Scarlet and a Lavender Lee. There's another woman near us who called her youngest son Darius - yes, after the singer (I use that term loosely, by the way....)
Adi Dassler Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 I went to a seminar in Glasgow recently and the opening gambit was about registered kids names in Glasgow over the last year. Including Ibroxia and twins Dolce & Gabanna.
neave Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 There was a kid in my primary school called Blu. I also know of a Kazara and a Destiny Charmed Lavender (after the TV show and the smell/colour). There's a rumour going about that there's a kid in primary in Edinburgh just now called Bam-Bam.

There's another woman near us who called her youngest son Darius - yes, after the singer (I use that term loosely, by the way....) Wouldn't say Scarlet is that bad at all, pretty common compared to other names mentioned. I can't wait for the day I can name my kids - Eduardis and Kurskis.
Craig_ Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Sure this was in the old Kickback, but here's a list of all the names registered in Scotland in 2006. http://www.gro-scotland.gov.uk/files1/stats/pop-names-06-t4.pdf Some crackers in there, especially the misspelt ones and the double-barrelled ones (pure posh like, ken?). And there's a Christ! Poor bugger...
hughesie27 Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Look forward to meeting 'Storm' ''Gladiator are you ready?!'' Another few favourite are 'Wiktoria' 'Zuzanna' 'Weronika' 'Tsz' 'Tamarina' 'Zico' 'T' (There are 2 of them!) 'Poojaa' 38 'Rhianna'! 'Ronaldo' Twins 'Riordan' and 'Riordhan' 'MacKenzi' 'Ricardo' and 'Lucio' 'J-Jay' 'Jet-Li':D 'G' 'Emmalee'' 'Ho' 'Harsimranpaul' 31 'Chantelle' and a 'Chantalle' 'asmaa'(Mum was a smoker) My favourite though is wee baby '*****' Edit. That should read baby 'G ypsy' Brilliant sweary filter. Imagine being named a curse!

And there's a Christ! Poor bugger... The girls' Ps are the most worrying; a wee glace and I've seen: Princess, Porscha, Po, Pyper, Poppy-Ann, Paris, Parris and, my personal favourite, Prezli-Leigh. There's also a Riordan, a Zico, a Ruby-Erin, a Shardanny, a Shantelle (with a Sh), a Serendipity, a Serene, 2 Serenities and a Thistle.

Zuzanna could easily be Polish or German and 'Tsz' Chinese or Russian. The rest are either Hindi (or other similar) or just plain awful I really hope the girl 'Ho' is Chinse or something. Really I do.

Eckauskas Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Charlene is by far the neddiest girls name around. I vaguely remember this discussion on the train to Aberdeen.
blondejamtart Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 There is a woman who recently sold one of the most expensive houses in Scotland (and is a millionaire, so hardly a schemie) but has daughters called Velvet, Porsche and Mercedes.....
ArmiyaRomanova Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Ethnic not schemie, but.... A good friend of mine's wife is called Wan Kei. Not saying what my wife's name is, but it occupies similar territory. If we're all out together, making introductions to strangers is amusing - there's quite a few really struggle to keep a straight face.

Say What Again Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 There's also the New Zealand couple last year who wanted to call their baby 4Real but couldn't as names can't start with a number. They called him Superman instead. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/6937327.stm
Say What Again Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Almost forgot about a girl i knew years back. She called her baby Pepper Peanut. Pepper Peanut must be about 20 by now.
neave Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 In the list above I've just found a Henryck, a Hendrix and a Henri-Jay-Karl-Alexander. I think with regards to the last one that wee boy's mum wanted to name him after his dad, but wasn't quite sure who it was......
Dirk Diggler Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Bollox to your 'Britneys' and 'Chantelles'. I know of a H*bs w&nker who named his daughter 'Leith'. Poor wee lassie. She doesn't stand a chance.

neave Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 Without being racist, is he coloured? ?? Asking if someone's black or not isn't racist, mate.
speedbump Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 ?? Asking if someone's black or not isn't racist, mate. You never know how some people might take it;)
neave Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 You never know how some people might take it;) If they're mentally unstable enough to take offence to someone saying the word 'black' then they have bigger issues than they think
