Well maybe they should meet the couple from Kerala who had children by names:
Beemol, Ceemol. Jeemol and Deemon, the last one the son

I agree with you Vinita. I get very upset when people misspell my name. Ofcourse when we see names like "Lubjcic", "Wozdat" etc we cant blame a few mistakes, lol

Very interesting post! Frankly speaking when I saw the title I thought it was another post about the clash between pseudo-names & real names. I had just blogged about it myself :).

I really liked the way you revealed your name to your readers, LP. Vinita(let me scroll up to see if spelled it right)is a nice name. I love Lazy Pinapple too :). I know how irritated I get when someone mispronounces/ misspells my name. Deepti is many a times spelled as DeepTHi(the typical malayali way), or Deepi(the arabs here often call me that), Deepa...I can very well elate to your frustration!

Thanks to our celebrities we get so much fodder for our posts, dont we?? :)

You think YOU've got it bad? Try my name - the imaginative (and ludirous) "Rindo".

With imaginative nicknames like "Ringo", "Dingo", Bindu", "Rindo" and "Dildo" (yes, 'Dildo' indeed, aptly called out whenever I tried impressing the ladies, in my teen years), to say I had a traumatizing childhood would be an understatement.

I still haven't forgiven my parents. :P

Hi Vinita... it is nice to say that after awkwardly calling you LazyPineapple for sometime.

2010-06-19T16:35:24.882+01:00

Nice to know your real name, Vinita! (scrolling hard to check the spelling! he he)

that was an interesting (and weird) collection of names:D Whatever do parents think of when they give their kids such names?

LEB: Thanks :)

Sovina: Yeah, you have such a pretty name...weird huh...how people can screw up simple names..

Smitha: I am sure your name must be changed just like mine :)
I can understand...naming your child these days is quite an exercise..

2010-06-18T18:11:20.663+01:00

I have the same trouble with my name trying to make them spell it without the H... Sigh! Interestingly, it is such an easy name to spell and pronounce otherwise but no Westerner can do it!! The forms that my name takes is funny (and horrible!)!
But you are talking about celebrities and their idiosyncrasies? Hear this, a respected scientist(!) in the Institute where I am right now is called Shampoo, and her sister is Lipstick... I swear! And I had initially thought my seniors were bullying me! :D :D

2010-06-18T18:05:20.406+01:00

I kinda knew your actual name but then since I knew your first as Lazy Pineapple , I am more comfy calling you LP :)

and talking about name ... Am one caught in a lady's name :D and been confusing strangers the time I was named :P heehee

btw, I feel sorry for the celebrity kids . Holy cow! how would any sane person name his/her kids like that :S ... Oh I meant sane right ? that explains ;)

2010-06-18T14:04:48.513+01:00

Hi Vinita, nice to meet you!
My husband's name which is actually quite common in Bengali can be a tongue twister in other languages. My daughters learned to pronounce it only when they were 7 plus. Till that age, my elder daughter always said, "I don't know" every time somebody asked her who her father was!
Nice post:-)

2010-06-18T13:42:21.311+01:00

My General knowledge of useless information just increased many fold thanks to celebrity kid names :)
Well, my name Anjali is butchered as well. I have taken the simple route of not wasting my energy on explaining it to people. Except when it is at workplace.
Angel, Angelique, Angie, Angela, Anjaalee. I have heard it all. If it remotely resembles my name, I respond. :)
