fun thread -- names

[vinesqueen 2]

The morning radio show I listen to in the mornings had an interesting topic yesterday. They were talking about last names, and if anyone does what their name says. You know, if anyone named Baker was a baker or things like that.

I thought that would make a fun topic here, so here goes.

My last name is Webb, and I spin as one of my many hobbies. Spin as in spinning wool, not the bike thing. Also, I work with the internet and networks, so that cracks me up too.

My younger sister changed her name when she got married, so she went from being a Webb to an Earl (some people pronounce URL as Earl)...

The CO of my ex-H's Navy Squadron was named Cosmos. Yup, Captian Cosmos. that is one of my all time favorite name.s

My last name is Peter.

Uh... I don't think I better add to that!!

OH! Besides the "gutter" thoughts, I will say I tend to "peter out" on projects... I start out gung ho, and then my enthusiasm just sort of... well... peters out..

ha ha you are all so funny! My last name is Hailer. It is German. I traced its meaning back as far a I could. Going backwards meaning doctor, to heal,and before that to castrate. HA HA the funny part is I just stopped working in a pediatriac office where I would assist physicans with circumcisons. Try getting a date when your last name means "to castrate"!

Okay, I had it REAL bad. My maiden name was Mountjoy. Not only that, my cousins last name is Lusby. We got it from every angle. Heather is a joy to mount or a mountain of joy or almond joy and on and on and on. LOL. Now it's Joyner. Hey atleast we kept the Joy in our marriage. LOL.

This is fun!

ok, my maiden name is French - Soileau. Pronounced "Swallow" .

A N D - since this board has already had troubles related to "swallowing" - Im not going to get into the problems I had with my last name.

Donali - good thing we didnt hook up in the military... "Hey 'Swallow' and 'Peters', Get over here!

[fireman20 3]

I have been in the military, that would have amused soldiers for years. lol:D

This isn't last name related but a fun twist of names. I had a boyfriend from long ago who made up names constantly. I worked at a little sandwich shop called "Schlotzsky's" and he called it "Shitzsky's" and there was one fella that I used to work with in a grocery store. His name was Joe Supulski? or Supinsky? or something like that and this boyfriend always referred to him as "Joe Suppository" I'm guessing he got that alot, anyway!

HAHAHA My last name is Staples... everyone asks me or my husband if we are owners of the store.... I say "if I did, i wouldnt be shopping here" where ever here is... (where ever im shopping at the time) LOL
