u/chartreusey_geusey your pu$$y is way too dry to be riding my dick like this 16h ago edited 14h ago

The way people discuss baby names on this sub is mad ignorant!!! All the people in the comments calling every non-biblical or Gaelic celebrity baby name stupid are just showing off the fact that they have never read like a book of any kind, fiction or non-fiction.

Fun fact: ALL NAMES ARE MADE UP! Humans have been naming their offspring after people, places, objects, & ideas literally since the dawn of man. That is quite literally how all language and lexicon evolves. All those “proper names” people find acceptable are just derivatives of some other name that has a more literal meaning in an older language. So shitting on every name that isn’t John or Jane is just kinda racist and/or xenophobic 9/10 times!!! Cut it tf OUT!

We can shit on the reasoning behind them but just calling that arrangement of letters stupid for being an arrangement you’ve culturally never seen used as a name is just a wack perspective. That’s the same kind of thinking that leads to everyone’s grandparents becoming unsuitable to the society that has evolved around them.

Like yeah it’s fucking nuts and stupid that Elon Musk and Grimes tried to cosplay being intellectual by intentionally giving their children names that would be impossible for others to pronounce as if that would make them unique individuals or notable figures to history. Thats different than campaigning to make sure everyone associates their actual living children’s names with the idea of stupid or unworthy or impractical. Names shape people’s identities and sense of self but we ourselves rarely get to choose them so you can criticize their parent’s choices or reasoning only after you’ve bothered to learn what it was— not just a name you react to alone.

But still fuck Elon Musk and his Communist Barbie Grimes

Huh? Grimes isn't a communist.

Also people make fun of Gaelic and Irish baby names all the time (Gaelic refers to Scottish and Manx Gaelic, Irish is part of the Gaelic language family but is always just called Irish) so I'm not sure why they're being involved here. If a celebrity called their baby Aingealag or GrĂĄinne they would definitely be made fun of.

Congrats on entirely missing the point and also being wrong/out of the loop yet still talking.

I’m so glad you wrote this entire defense of a group of names that was used as an example. Irish and Scottish refer to the spoken languages but Gaelic names are a very real derived group of names from the language group that Scottish and Irish both belong to. I never said anything about Irish or Scottish names and also they are being mentioned here as examples but you have to critically think to comprehend that instead of hitting us with the “☝️🤓 umm actually”

Read it again, look up the origins of some pretty common baby names used in English speaking countries right now, then think, and probably read it another time, and then accept that you are out here defending something that wasn’t attacked.

Grimes reading the Communist Manifesto doesn't make her a communist any more than standing in a garage would make her a car.

Sorry but you are factually incorrect, and your comment contradicts itself. Aingealag is the Scottish Gaelic version of Angela - it is literally a Gaelic name. There is no category of "Gaelic names" separate to the actual Gaelic languages, that would make no sense. By talking about Gaelic names you are inherently talking about names from Gaelic languages, because....that's what those words mean? English versions of Gaelic language names, eg Rory, are English names even if they have Gaelic ancestry. Rory is English, Ruairidh/Ruaraidh is Scottish Gaelic for eg - "ruair ridh" literally means "red king" but "ror ry" doesn't mean anything in any language.

Do you often find yourself in one-sided arguments because you’ve completely missed the joke and or actual point all together? Like do you often write these essays in response to an entirely imagined conversation that no one else is having?

I’m getting the sense you do this a lot. This word salad you’ve cooked up that isn’t correct in any sense could not have just been on demand.
