I know a sesame who is a grown woman. She choose her English name as it sounded like her Chinese name without knowing what sesame meant. I have always taken it to be her name without laughing or finding it crazy. But there is meaning behind why she selected it rather than just choosing sesame!

Why would you call your son Turbo? FFS - particularly if your surname was charger! Re: Xenon... Its actually a polish name, so just unusual in Australia

QUOTE (wizzywig @ 13/12/2012, 07:20 PM) Yarrow - a boy I have a friend called Yarrow. It suits him and doesn't seem weird at all.
