We were just chatting about our real names, and some people didn't feel happy with theirs. This thread is intended as more cheap therapy, as people put up their impression of what image certain names convey. JULIAN: 1980s City Trader

Okay, so we have the negative side of things down people. Now we should try and find some positive role models with these names. May be difficult for me, as the only Julian most people knew when I was growing up was Clary... Hmmm okay I give up. But if people want a laugh, check out my fit namesake: "julian escott" on google images. He's some kinda model...

Well there's the Jules in my avatar, but he's just a character. and Jools Holland, he's *sorta* cool! Exactly, for a cool Barry you don't have to go any further than:

;D I was trying to see the verb "to molest" in a positive light... but I suppose it's just not possible really! Who would Grant Fabao be? Stanley? Eoin? Cav?!

Hang on, I think at this point I need to check the dictionary... harass or assault sexually; make indecent advances toWell okay, obviously not the first two ... but in the context of "indecent advances" I would have thought... meh, I'm going to go quiet and blush now!
