Adrian sent me and Sarah an email Christmas Card.....in October last year..... ;D Aww bless... total fruitloop! Dunno why but I've only met a couple of Adrians, and they're nearly always mad! ;D To be honest, I share the same experience regarding persons of that nomenclature.... Do parents of male babies stare in wonder at their newborn as it chews its own ear and think, "Adrian. I shall call you Adrian."?

Was that his real name? I feel I've missed a lot of discussions, can't even remember when I found out you were Si (along with Stan, and Laura's husband!) As I understood, he got upset, he did seem to have paranoid tendencies... Your version is funnier though... i realised he was si, when everyone kept calling him si...... i'm quick, me! That's quite correct D. ;D

That's quite correct D. ;D Well yeah, okay, but it was much more recently that I realised Stan was also a Simon... it's confusing I tell thee! People should have unique names!

As much as I'd love to stay and chat people, I have to dodge the current shower of Sparrow feathers and collect miniest gfj from school.

i think david is a hebrew name... That it is fella. Strange where things originate. Simon is of course Greek... and more socially acceptable in the UK than calling your son "Achilles"...!

Actually, it is from the Greek meaning "snub-nosed" and apparently, he is quietly confident; people find him easy to talk to and are naturally drawn to him. A true and loyal friend. *according to my key-fob*

The boy's name David \d(a)-vid\ is pronounced DAY-vid. It is of Hebrew origin, and its meaning is "beloved". Biblical: one of the most remarkable personalities in the Scriptures. David was a shepherd, musician, poet, soldier, statesman, prophet, and king. He wrote about half of the Psalms and very likely composed music for them as well. He is the only David mentioned in the Bible; his name occurs there more than a thousand times. Today there are variants of the name in almost every language group. Saint David (sixth century) is the patron saint of Wales. In Scotland, David was a royal name.

That's the other weird thing, a lot of names aren't that complimentary?! ;D Yeah my point was though that you'd get funny looks if you called your son "Megacles" for example - sounds like a Transformer!

Your parents clearly hoped for great things ........ and have been constantly disappointed!! ;D
