In 2nd and 3rd, there are 7 to 8 girls with the same name as mine. :evil: I hate it, i don't want to have the name that everybody wants to name their child too. I want a name that identifies who am i and what kinda person i am instead of going for a popular name.


So there are 8 girls at your school named Duck? Wicked! I knew it was a popular name, but that popular! :lol:

I actually have a friend called Marcus and he's British. He's also incredibly intelligent, but that's another story... :)

Well, I never really thought my name (Mary) was totally unpopular, but today at my first day of senior classes I had my psychology teacher look at me funny & exclaim (after I said "present" after he called out Mary .... during role call) that in his 8 years of teaching I was his first "Mary" he had ever taught...weird huh...I am pretty sure I am the only one in my school...isn't that odd because it seems to be rather popular with the elder generation I suppose...

My name's João! It sooooo popular amongst Portugal. :( I'd like to have a more original name :D . BUT, I do like the name...

It's rather hard to say when portuguese is not your mother tongue cause of the "ã" (like "un" in french) I know some foreign people and I don't know one that can say correctly my name... HaHaHa :lol: :razz:

Hmmm I have no worry of people having the same name as me...cos that never happens...
usually chinese name is made up of 2 different words excluding surname/family name...plus my family name is very rare...apart my family, I haven't met anyone with my family name.
My name simply mean hardworking and diligent...*hmmm*
