I am suspicious of some of those colours in the background
that’s racist
This is how you learn you’re colorblind.
a!
Damn fine color
Reminds me of Dr. Marijuana Pepsi Vandyck. She did her thesis on uncommon black names.
I went to school with her. Her maiden name was Jackson.
TBH her parents were (maybe still are) pathetic selfish people and she was kind of a holier-than-thou prude – but way better than her parents.

Fun fact I worked a diesel workers union job where everyone got company uniforms with our surname on the breast pocket.
There was a crazy smart Chinese dude who worked there. His name was Long Dong. His shirt said “Dong” on it. Our undereducated Indiana co workers found this endlessly worth joking about
I bet they would’ve joked even more if it also included name
Oh, they knew his first name and did not hesitate to use it for their mirth as well
If his middle name wasn’t Duk, I will be severely disappointed.
What’s the equivalent of /r/tragedeigh?
I know we have !boneappletea@lemmy.world It’s not about names, though
i used to read the idaho baby name roundup. the problem with tragedeigh is it never had enough Ys
how about myssgnohmehrs or something like that idk. I’m not entirely familiar with the history but using a real name (idk if tragdeigh is some poor child’s) is in poor taste
Why didn’t her parents just name her “fart” if she’s an air wrecka.
That’s her nickname.
Uncontrolled flatulence is a real problem people.
am I supposed to be able control it?
at least a little, at first. like one would control a river if they were at a lever, and pulling that lever would stop the river from killing five blind toothless orphans with no toes (the river was going to club them like baby seals. and not going to be kind about it either the river is a real dick about it so please dear sentient pull that lever)

I think “Arika” could work. Or maybe Awika.
But as someone who has a unique spelling of a common name myself, it sure makes things harder in life.
People say it wrong. Or write it wrong.
I have to spell it out all the time to others if I’m making appointments or something on the phone.
It’s a real pain. Don’t do that to your kids.
A A Ron?
J. Quellin?
I only have an extra letter. I think that’s why I’m not getting job interviews. they think I’m black.
This is what I call my fiancée when she lets a really nasty one rip
There do exist some parents who try to make their children’s names more unique, sometimes to the point of absurdity.
