My parents told me that if I were a guy I would have been named Cessar (thank gawd I wasn't!) Sounds like an old man's name. If I had a sister, they would have named her Caress. Poor hypothetical sister. Heh, we'll all have the same letters in our first name.

If I were to rename myself as a guy (supposing I became a female to male transvestite), I would take Marco. All Marcos I've met are cute.

For Kiwi, my boys came up with:

"Kiwi the peewee" and "hey Kiwi, can I eat you?"

(That second one...depending on the age & intention of the person saying it... >_> )

Hey, I'm just pointing out the hazards! 🤣

My name would fit right in, in Japan...too bad it doesn't in the US. 😔

lol, what name? tofuqueen?

lemme see, its kinda out of this thread, more like the other name thread, but:
my chinese name has two interpretations:

1. sky and earth(like mother earth), a balance of forces, based on yin yang thoughts

2. the heavenly principal of women XD, or the heavenly "runner" of women (cough pimp)

She's going to get mad at you for that when she reads it, Israfel. 🙂

Now I'm curious about TofuQueen's name... wonder what it could be? Celery? Spinach? Carrot? Penguin?

LOL, no, nothing that bad, my parents weren't cruel! 🤣

I'm not going to tell my name, but I will say that it's a universal (or pretty darn close) nature word. I do hear of others with the same name, but only rarely (and they're always younger than I am).

Even though I like my name, I didn't want my kids to have to put up with the stupid comments, so they both have more "normal" names.

Noooo! You're Mushu! Bob-Mushu!

😮 Is it just me or you sounded like a hypocrite just now for making fun of someone else's name?

@TofuQueen: It can't be Forest (it's pretty common for a guy right?). Is it Gaea? Earth? 🤣

Gaea seems like a pretty name, I think I'll name my kid that.

erm...who's name did i make fun of?

I don't find the 2nd one bad 🤣 I can't imagine it bad... =s though I think I know what you're saying................. but it doesn't really pop up in my head 🤣

anyway... I also hate my last name. Chinese last names = 🤢

Well, I love my name because my parents gave it to me.. with my first middle name I was given my grandda's (mom's dad) name .. and for my second middle name I was given my older brother's (who passed away) name so those are one's I definitely wouldn't change. I just hate how most people assume I'm a boy by my names 😢 And well.. if I HAD been a boy (which I assumed I was until I was actually born) I wouldn't have to worry bout another one.

If it weren't for the gutter, my mind would be homeless.

erm...there's a very very very bad meaning behind "eat"
