Sorry, don't know what to say.
I guess all kids hate their names. I know I did with mine too.

Tab 11. November 2009, 23:15

I know!
I just think the teenage mind works in wonderous ways!

Dacotah 11. November 2009, 23:38

Yes they do. :smile:

:lol: Of course she hates her name! Isn't that a normal kid thing? p:

Tab 12. November 2009, 02:16

Gotta love how she equates it though!

Karen 12. November 2009, 02:19

Tell her, "Fine! Since you get called Tab sometimes, let's legally change your name to Tab so you won't be AmandDUH." :D

I didn't hate my name as a kid, as a teen or now.

Tab 12. November 2009, 14:00

I did/still do

I never use my full name (Tabatha) and always politely correct those who do call me Tabatha.

I once heard a story about Ahmet Zappa. Seems he came home from school very sad one day, and his father said "What's the matter, boy?"

"The kids at school are making fun of my name," says Ahmet. "They're calling me 'Ahmet Vomit'."

Dad asks "What would you like to do about it?"

"I think I'll change my name to Rick," says Ahmet.

The next day, young Rick comes home from school with a sad look on his face.

"What's wrong?" asks has dad.

"I'm going to go back to being Ahmet." says Rick. "The kids called me 'Rick Dick'."

It doesn't matter what your name is. Assholes will figure out how to push your buttons if you let them.

So true..lol..I'm going to be passing your story on to Amanda..
Though in her case the ass holes are her brothers.. :lol:

Karen 12. November 2009, 18:11

Rick Dick...:lol:

Matthew 12. November 2009, 19:19

Surely she can think of some ugly things to call her brothers. :lol:

Tab 12. November 2009, 19:39

Probably Matt..but I think she prefers brute force.

My brothers name is Richard Karen, but oddly enough nobody has ever called him Dick. :lol:

My other brother changed his name from Eric to Indianna...like seriously dude..gimme a break!

Karen 12. November 2009, 20:49

My Uncle's name is Richard. I keep telling my Mom that I'm going to refer to him as "Uncle Dick" in an email...but she's threatened to light my mattress on fire while I sleep if I do. :D


:left: Wait. :right: He changed his name FROM Eric TO Indianna? :eyes: WTF?

Tab 12. November 2009, 21:43

YEP..

That he did!

Karen 12. November 2009, 23:06

Wow. Very, very interesting choice! :left:

Tab 12. November 2009, 23:36

Yup...and I can see you wiggling in your chair struggling to be polite :lol:

God forbid he ever have a son! I would refuse to call any nephew of mine JARJAR BINKS.

daxonmacs 13. November 2009, 00:46
