Are they all named after porn stars?? Or is it because they have very little history as a country and infact America is made up of immigrants from a wide selcetion of countries over years and years and years?
I prefer to think they are all named after porn stars!

Wow! People are soooo touchy! It was just a silly little question for a bit of fun! Lighten up folks! Chill out! and of course America has a history but what I mean is it was dicovered hundreds of years after most countries.... for example we can track the history of China, Britain, France etc back for thousands of years.
Silly question..... I was hoping for some funny silly answers..... of course it isn't a serious topic.... but anyone who takes this site seriously needs to get a life.

I find it interesting that you answered your question with your own answer. Actually, I am named after someone from England. Names are a very cultural phenomenon. What sounds good to someone in China may sound horrible to someone in Germany and the other way around. Also, many names translate across the languages. So, much of what you are complaining about is really subjective. You will either get people who really agree or those who don't. Personally, I don't.

One thing we do not lack is history. Before you say things like that, you need to do your research first so that you do not come off as an idiot thinking you know so much, but in reality you know nothing about it. We do have a lot of immigrants, you are right on that, but that is not what America is made up of. You may think that our names are stupid, but to us, people in foreign countries have stupid names as well. It is the difference in culture. If you check, all names that we have have meanings and originated out of history.

Well as you say we are made up of immigrants from all over the world, so all the stupid names come from all the stupid places. I really don't know why people have to make such a big deal about something so trivial, but then when you have nothing better in your life, I guess you have to worry about our names.

Thats Odd when there are names like Jonsie, Ringo (Yes I know He's a Beatle), Herbert and other odd random names like that. So some names sound a bit weird, but who cares, its a name that someone liked and wanted us to have!
Besides whats up with Juicy?

I'm sure the Americans would find your name really stupid, i do not think it is right that you should attack a group of people in this way, it is nothing short of racism and really offencive to all the Americans out there, if you are from Britain then i am ashamed to be British. you should accept people for who they are no matter what nationality.

I think most countries have a whole plethra of names that are amusing.
In the UK how many people take the mick out of:
kevin etc. (Not that i think theres anything wrong with it myself!)
Stop being so hateful and think of something productive to ask.

I do not agree that Americans do have stupid names. I know many names with significant meanings and they are beautiful.
Even other country peeps have "sounded" crazy names so do not blame on American names!

you answered your own question...america is founded by immigrants from many other countries...so if you feel we have stupid names, it's because our forefathers came from another country and didn't know any better...once we got established, the stupid names stopped...we all have great names these days!!!
