"Peter, you are the rock on which I shall build my church..."
A quote from Christ (read the Bible) that was a pretty good pun, but it has lost all of its humour in the English translation !

One could get into a whole religious debate about Christ said in Matthew 16:13-16, but suffice it to say. . .Pete. . .It's a good Name.
-
Yes, Pete. You could have been called Cuthbert. It might mean couth and bright, but that's pretty poor compensation...or Everard "hard (strong) as a wild boar"...big deal.

My first name is pretty self-explanatory, but my surname (Barkess) is Dutch or Norse I believe. The spelling has changed a lot over the centuries: Barcus, Barkas, Barkass are all evident somewhere on the family tree, but it is definitely distinct from "Barker", a well-known English name which is derived from either Middle English (tanner of leather), Old French (shepherd), High German (man who lived on a mountain) or modern English (man who sells fork handles).
It's fairly common in a small area in the north of England, Tyne and Wear, but almost unheard of elsewhere- I think there's less than 10 individuals with the name Barkess in my homeland Scotland and I'm pretty sure I'm the only one in Sweden. Having said that, I was told that it meant the skipper of a canal barge in Dutch and "barkass" means a longboat in modern Swedish so it's possible it was originally a Nordic name. Either way, I believe the name first appears in the North of England only about 400 years ago so there's no vikings on my father's side, but my mother's family was from the North of Scotland in Aberdeenshire where many vikings "settled" so you never know, maybe Sweden is my homeland after all.

Phillip is Ancient Greek and means "lover of horses".
So I shorten it to Phil.So does that mean you love ponies?
No, I shorten it to "Phil" because I don't love horses. "Phil" is greek for love... one of quite a few different words for love, actually.
If I had been able to choose I'd have been something like Phillip Prince De La MacO'senson and I'd have hailed from Fieldlandvilleburgtontownabad.

I had a friend who was born there. He was very indecisive.

You'd think there would be some kind of a law about this.
This is why kids end up in Therapy,on Medication on Jerry Springer.
Here in the Mountain West, we seem to have a lot of kids named after towns.. . .Cody, Waco, Dakota, Cheyenne, Brooklyn, Madison, etc etc.
I was thinking about my naming my Son Fort Lauderdale.

Why not call your kid 'Doctor"? that way even if he ends up flipping burgers at Mc donalds he is still a doctor.

We have a lot of Judges, Doctors, and Senators here in the Deep South

In Sweden and Germany there is- baby names have to be registered with a government authority before Christening, who have the power to refuse them (and frequently use it). I'm not sure exactly what Sweden's policy is on this, but I know the German authority takes it very seriously- the names must not have any negative connotations and must either be gender neutral or appropriate to the child's gender. No boys named Sue in Germany!
Weird children's names really wind me up- I can't say what they were as it would only make matters worse, but one-time neighbours of mine gave both their sons such effeminate names that they are pretty much guaranteed to be severely bullied for the first 20 years of their lives (and laughed at for the remainder)- that really pisses me off.

I agree with you Jackson.
Another one that gets me is hair style. I was at my brother's house for Independence day this past weekend as he had a number of families over. His wife's boss has a son named Eddie, or Ed, or something of the like. Very masculine right? But when I asked how old she was I got a hurtful look. The kid has hair at least 8 inches past his shoulders and he is still in diapers (don't get me started on that one too). He is 2 years old and has never had a haircut. Long curly blond hair! Have some respect for your child, and your gender for goodness sake.
