So your surname is Lovibond.

You have a daughter and decide to call her Ophelia.

Clearly, you are a couple of cunts.

Could be worse. Ed Balls could've named one of his daughters Ophelia.

Some actress who calls herself Janeane Garofalo.

Now I imagine that's supposed to be Janine, but am I the only one who wants to say Jane Ann?

Whilst I will admit it is, without question, a very daft name. She's actually pretty good in The West Wing.

I admit a certain bias here as (though american) it's one of my favourite programmes ever and Jean-Anne, Janine whatever the fck her name is doesn't let it down.

Don't like the tats though.

All of the names in this video:

 

 

I'll translate for those who are unacquainted with this rich and sophisticated dialect.

 

Lydia. Probably the least offensive of the three. Rhymes with chlamydia. It will have 'weird old lady' connotations for years to come, but some rocket decided to name their daughter Lydia circa 2000.

 

Keris. A bastardisation of the lovely Welsh name Cerys. The K makes it so much clunkier.

 

Waz. This is clearly a nickname, but what does it stand for? Wasley? Wasminder? Having a waz? :scratchhead:

Isn't it an anglicisation of the Italian name Giannina?

I'd guess Warren (though clearly all Warrens should be nicknamed Bunny) - see also Daz.

Well, like I said, that would be Janine.  Which is fine. 

It's the silly spelling that gets to me.  I see the name, and I see Jane and then it stops making sense.

I have an "Einstein" in my class. He's there because he loves sleeping at his desk and so has failed the course twice.

Synch.

 

I'd an Einstein in my Chemistry Higher class.

 

Had a tache, clever as fuck and liked the company of boys in swimwear.

 

 

 

It was the teacher tho, so maybe not a good thing.

One of the names my mum wanted for me, along with Jolene and Meryl which makes me realise that ,however much I dislike my name,  it could have been worse.
