My cousin had her baby boy a few days ago. I just found out that they named him Attila. Am I the only one that thinks that's a terrible name? It's like naming him Adolph! (One possible reason - his dad is Hungarian, but they are planning on living most of their lives here.)

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Poor child. A lifetime as "the Hun."

One of Malcolm X's daughters was named Attilah.
That's all I got.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
A former coworker just announced the birth of his first child, Baughn Issei Lastname (his wife is Japanese). No one here is sure about the gender of the child.

Wow. I think not QUITE as bad as Adolph, because most people probably don't have any idea what Attila the Hun DID, whether he was a good or bad guy or whatever. But he's still gonna hear "....like the Hun?" ALL HIS LIFE.

Yeah, I knew Attila was a bad guy, but when I checked him out on Wikipedia, he was listed as "Scourge of God." Nice - hopefully his friends won't use Wikipedia much.

I just asked CJ what he thinks of the name Attila and he said "death". I didn't explain why I was asking.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
most people probably don't have any idea what Attila the Hun DID
Didn't Attila die while having sex?
Yeah, I know he did all sorts of Hun stuff, but that's the thing that sticks out in my memory....

There's very little evidence that the Huns of the waning days of the Roman Empire have any connection to the modern Hungarians, other than invaders from the East being generically called "Huns".

I don't know if they chose that name because is dad is Hungarian - it was just the only possibility I could see for naming him that name - like maybe Attila doesn't have such negative associations there or something.
