Do you like your name?

I really like mine (Dex - full name Dexter) but I think my surname's boring (not saying what that is!) and I'll probably change it soon. Do you like yours?

It's okay, just wish I had a more unusual name rather than a really common one :tongue:

Not really, I want to be an actor and I think having a cooler surname would help a lot.
I like my name, but it's a bit boring and it does get really annoying after a while, as people always mishear it when I tell them what it is. I don't even bother correcting them any more a lot of the time :tongue:
I like my surname.
I love my middle name.
I'm not hugely fond of my first name because it's really common.
i am liking my name so much

Not gonna lie my name is awesome.
Yeah I love my name compared to my siblings'

My name is Joseph, but whenever I tell people this they just start calling me Joe for no reason!!!!! I HATE JOE :angry: MY NAME IS JOSEPH FFS

edit: and tbh changing your surname purely because you think it's boring is a bit of a slap in the face to your ancestry :tongue:

I love my first name, it's so amazing. Hate my surname, it's utterly ridiculous and meaningless.
Yes.
Aye. But most people can't guess my middle name without looking up a list of Irish names :tongue:

John? Is that you? :mmm:
I don't really like either my first or last names. Hopefully I'll change it to something worth being called someday... :moon:
I never used to like my first name but it's growing on me :tongue:
I like my first name, but not my surname and middle name.
My first name is alright but I prefer my nickname:h:
