Is "Thirteens" a good boy's name?

[sigesige00]

My friend is a RL mad and his wife is pregnant (a boy).  He wants to name his son "Thirteens", because he loves RL.  Do you think that "Thirteens" is a good name?

  I'll move it to AOB, far more of an AOB subject.

To be fair, surely it's better than some of the names I've seen kids called these days

[scrape_goose]

Perhaps it sounds better in your native tongue, but not in English no it's awful. How about Hooker, or Xiii.

And Steele, the best ever. Even Mr and Mrs Retchless must have had a giggle over that.

Tracey Lazenby toughened up at school I bet. Great name though for a RL forward.

 

BTW, sigesige what is your nationality, if you don't mind me asking?

I am a Japanese national, while having ethnically Korean origin.

[WearyRhino]

I think 'playtheball' should be considered as an alternative!

[gazza77]

Thirteen, no. "Gerremonside" maybe?

Not as much as Mr and Mrs Kerr did when they named their son Wayne.

gosh!  transported me back in time nearly 50 years!

I knew Tracey Lazenby quite well when I was a bit younger, ok, a fair bit younger. He certainly had a fearsome reputation.

 

He scored a belting try for KR on Scrumdown once, maybe summat for the other thread.

 

His folks named his elder brother Colin.

 

Not sure who got the rawest deal, tbh.

And your friend is Japanese too?

[sigesige00]

And your friend is Japanese too?

No, he is English, and his wife is a Lebanese.

[sigesige00]

Interestingly, in Japan, there is a town called "十三" (13).

In Japanese, "13" is read "Zyûsan", but this town is called "Zyûsô".

I met a Japanese whose given name is "十三" (Zyûsô), because he was born there.

[Bob8]

The surname '8' comes from my ancestor being a prop.

 

When is sigesige00 going to be blocked?

[Old Frightful]

No, he is English, and his wife is a Lebanese.

How did she become pregnant then?
