[Opinions] Re: British celebrity BAs
in reply to a message by Sofia
Anytime a British person sneers at the US for having presidents that chose to go by Jimmy or Bill, I would like to point out that there are not many names as ridiculous and childish as Alfie.Harvey and Archie sound about 92 years old.
Spike is not a name. The poor child deserves an actual name, not some dumb gangster-ish nickname.I guess they think Rex is manly, but Rex Wood? Really? Does he break boards with his bare hands? Anyway, Rex is a dog's name.

I agree that Alfie sounds way too childish - it's my cousin's name and his brother is called Harvey!
Harvey and Archie are so common on little kids nowadays that they don't seem old to me, but I guess they're less popular in America.
