    I would have preferred a unique name of my own also.

    Given a chance what would that name be?

    dunno...
    it would be a little more special, but not to much.
    I know a guy who gave his daughter the name 'Vlinder' (which means Butterfly), and I think that is a bit over the top.

    any ideas ?

    No offense but it Sounds like blender.

    If I'd choose a name of my own, I would like it
    to be special, unique and one that does not sound like
    other things.

    I'm still pondering on it though.

    I'd like a name that would make me feel special in its own way, not really bordering on values or anything.

    But I guess I'm asking for too much. What do you say?

    I think we could find ourselfs a new name now, which we like, but if we were born with it, we would probably 'hate' it just as much...

    Mendhak had

    'Return' to sender on his box they gave him the name return because they thought it was an omen from god not a fault in sorting

    See mine has a story to it so it must be right

    By far the most unique name I have ever known. I don't know of one that has a name in the keyboard. What is it then, BREAK?

    That would be nice, since you'll never ever forget to take a break.

    Or as "uncreative" as George Foreman and his sons George, George, George, George, and George.

    It only goes two inches in each direction. And never stops. The driver must be inside getting 'pickled'
