    @River well, your one for the mix, River, is a good one. If I could name myself anything, it would be either Reggie, Tommy, or Paddy. I'm just thankful my mum never went with my dad's idea of Nathanial. Like, please, Nathan sucks enough without the additional ial at the end. And my middle names are just awful :'( Why my mum decided to name my middle name after the last british soldier to die on the somme i will never know

    @DonnerKebab haha I chose the name river on here because I have a fascination towards rivers but I actually think Iโ€™d suit it in real life ๐Ÿ˜‚

    Iโ€™m named after Winnie the Poohโ€™s favourite food ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ all my siblings got normal names and I was given that and I asked why I was given that name and she said it was because she wasnโ€™t gonna name me and a nurse called me my name in the hospital so she stuck with it ๐Ÿ˜‚ all my siblings had planned names and I was gonna be nameless ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

    @River that ain't so bad. The nameless part is and how she wasn't going to name you sucks, but the name itself ain't too bad. River is awesome too.

    My first name is Nathan, second name, the first name of the last british soldier to perish in the battle of the somme in the great war for some reason, the third is my grandma's family name which is also a gypsy traveller one :'( , and my last name is a colour. I swear my family have all the naming capacity of a cat jumping on a keyboard.

    Still, could be worse for us. Could be called "x ae a-12" like elon musks son ๐Ÿ˜‚

    @DonnerKebab being named after a soldier isnโ€™t the best but you have a double barrel name? Ooo you have 2 middle names like me :O

    Edit I thought of a colour and matched it to your first name and it actually sounds nice ๐Ÿ˜‚ I went for my favourite colour hahaha

    @River Yep. Double barrel. So the first 2 names for me are Nathan Henry, and I'll leave you to guess the last 2. ๐Ÿ˜‚

    And yeah, according to my mum the soldier was taken out by a sharpshooter, so that's lovely to be named after. Some poor chap 100 years ago getting taken out. A real vote of confidence from her ๐Ÿ˜‚. And you've got two middle names too? That's honestly crazy. I have not yet encountered anybody with 2 middle names so far. Maybe one or two actually but still. Rare.

    @River What did you guess I'm generally curious now if you can actually guess it?
  • RiverRiver Community Connector Posts: 4,859 The Mix Elder
    @DonnerKebab i had the wrong second name ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

    Haha yeah I have 2, one of them is the same name as someone who was in the royal family and the other is my birth stone although I only use my birthstone name. My last name is named after a food ๐Ÿ˜‚ however my very fist last name was named after a metal ๐Ÿ˜‚

    My favourite colour is periwinkle so when you said a colour I went โ€œNathan periwinkleโ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ I want to change my last name to periwinkle now

  • DonnerKebabDonnerKebab Posts: 1,757 Extreme Poster
    @River I kind of want to get a name change now too cause Periwinkle genuinely sounds like a cool last name to have, even though i don't even know what colour that is ๐Ÿ˜‚. Sadly wrong though.

    Oh, i am 100% guessing when you said someone who USED to be in the royal family, i'm guessing it's either an exile or a former monarch? Oh god, it's not prince Andrew is it ๐Ÿ˜‚ That would be a nightmare.

    @River Elizabeth. Of course it's the one i never guessed. Every one but the main one ๐Ÿ˜ญ. That's an awesome first middle name to have you know.

    @River beat them to it ๐Ÿ˜‚

    And thank you. I didn't mention my last name due to anonymity, although with three names out of four there, i'm guessing there's not many people with that combo. I think they draw the line at 2 names. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

    @River a little bit. They are usually meant to support you not ask things that might be triggering. I imagine they might just want to check the severity of your eating situation, to check your not dangerously underweight i guess, but it's still out of order for them to do that.

    And the spam block. Is that by the helpline or something? Speaking of spam...
