Maybe she wanted him to have his daddy's name.

It's quite sad that whites are not able to express pride in their roots. It is socially acceptable for minorities to exclaim their pride publicly without repercussions. I say no longer! White Pride! To the mods, I am in no way advocating white supremacy, but showing pride in my roots just as others have the right to do so.

59 could be right. my mom wanted to name me mike but my dad said no I will not be named after her dad.

Bees_fml 0

I'm with #59. Plus, it's possible her memories of her ex are painful and she doesn't want that name to always conjure up that pain. Taking intentional steps to redeem the memories can be very salubrious.

maybe she's so obsessed with him that's she might wait for the kid to grow up and have sex with him!

Yeesh....Do you just go around TRYING to piss people off? It's just a typo. OP.....Maybe you should start calling your son "Pre-nup." lol

haha I love reading your comments, Ignorance.

ohthebloodygore 16

22, she doesn't try. She does. You're an idiot. Also, yeesh? Seriously?

Draminicaus 0

Yes, yeesh. It's an onomatopoeia. I wasn't aware that there were correct ways to spell a sound.

ohthebloodygore 16

37, who said it was spelt incorrectly?

Draminicaus 0

....Very good point. lol I said "yeesh" because it's more polite than the alternative. I don't try to be a complete asshole when I'm being an asshole. I guess I kinda failed at that, huh? lol

ohthebloodygore 16

43, we all fail at times. :)

Gore, Some more than others tho. :)

Mr. Backmuscles is talking about me, isn't he? :P lol

Draminicaus 0

I had better clarify before I get the virtual beat-down again, shouldn't I? lol I'm not trying to insult you, Marinus. lol I'm just being an idiot for the sake of humor.

#68 is sexyyy (: just sayin

Iskaria 0

#77 - #68 is waaaay down the comments, and is Captain Morgan if the display pic is anything to go by o.o you have a thing for pirates? Don't we all. OP if it's a nice name and if she hasn't cheated do you care? Unless you knew the guy well, and he was an ass, any negative feelings to a name just because they were together once are immature. Besides you only need to worry if she starts calling him (Name) Junior. ;)

what does OP mean? >_>

so sorry for making a typo... I'll work on that, ok?

So have a daughter and name her after an ex-girlfriend. Wait three years. Reveal. Or you can divorce her. Either way.

loski87 4

Divorce seems somewhat drastic

FYL. I'd get out while you still can if I were you. Nothing good can come of that.

BizzaroG 0

the ex is the one who got away so she settled for you and named your son after him to remind herself of the mistake she made. therefore, fyl indeed. ;(

Maybe she wanted him to have his daddy's name.

this makes sense too

This is random, but I forgot >.< is DNA Deoxyribose nucliec acid? or did I get it wrong?

Draminicaus 0

DNA is Deoxyribonucleic acid. I'm about 80% sure of it. lol

suppressed08 2

57's right, you just mixed up the e and i in nucleic. I love Biology, I do. :)

I love how my comment helped everyone learn

I never understand comments that ask such simple questions. DNA stands for Do Not Ask. As in a question that should be googled rather than asked in public forum. I mean normally I jump at the chance to answer any question even slightly medically related, but seriously bro, that's like a 2 second search on google. you don't even have to read much. it actually takes more time and effort to post the question and check for answers than it does to google such a simple and straightforward question.

I don't understand why you would take ur time and freakout about stupid shit
