i feel bad for these kids whose parents name them after a fuckin movie/tv show and in like 20 years nobodys gonna remember it
tbh that's probably preferable to people knowing your parents named you off a video game/loving movie/tv show.

I will never understand this, anytime someone needs your name in even a remotely official capacity you're going to have to spell it out. Having one spelling for one sound simplifies things for everyone but now even the most basic of names need clarification.

I remember one of the old PYF lovely name threads used to probate people who posted "-" names claiming it was just a racist joke.
Snopes says it's false, like the orangejello and chlamydia ones.
