Re: Naming a unique name???

Dear Jula,

A lot of people think your name is really funny. And it is. But I am sure you like it. When no one else has that name in the whole dog park, aren’t you proud then? It’s not like, “Tommy…” and three dogs show up. Yes, having a unique name is a great thing. Except when you are calling your dog/loved one/hated one and they have a “unique” name; people have no idea of the word you are screaming out loud and they conclude that you are under the influence of some mental disability attack.

But it’s a really cool thing to have a unique name. Who has never had three Josh’s in their class? When you have this other person in your grade with the same name, your names get prefixed with prefixes that are decided by the rest of the school considering several factors. These factors include you height, weight, nationality, intelligence, gender, etc. Tall Alex? Skinny Anita? Asian Baffey?  Dumb Albertina? Boy Kristina? So if you have a name that no one else does, you can save your name from getting prefixed. If you name originates in a language that does not sound like English, you may not encounter the prefix effect but confront the “So, how do I say you name again?”

I have some tips for you, if you want to grant your next generation some uniqueness.

  • Just adding some vowels DO NOT make a name unique. It’s NOT creative to spell “Alexander” as “Aleyksaiandere.”
  • DO NOT insert random consonants as silent. “Chantel” CANNOT be “Chaxntelgg.”
  • Extracting a name from random object IS NOT a considerable choice. For example, “Bookline,” “TVsha,” etc. Some objects are awesome though. Have a look at “iPhonia,” “Cell-ina,” “JayRod,” etc.
  • Last tip; think over when combining yours and your partner’s name. Katherine and William does not go for Kathilliam but Wi-kat is just satisfactory. Wite is above standards considering William and Kate.

With this criterion, Jula is not a bad name.

See, now after reading this people won’t make fun of you.  You are welcome Jula.

 

Always yours,

Emmula.
