Good luck in life Gali ;)

These people??? Can't they make up their own names? I had a friend once whose dad made up his name and it was "Gernott" pronounced "Gaire Not" rhyming "Dare Not". Although he was German so maybe its a common German name and I was scammed with that story!

You aslo had a megablock who didn't like his name and placed an auction on ebay: win the auction and choose a name for him *wacko*

Could he sinck lower than that, I wonder >-|

[Mister Phes]

He could be auctioning a French Baguette that looks like Yoda...

The only difference is that he DID auction his name ;)

[Mister Phes]

WHAT??? Are you implying you're not really auctioning that baguette?

[xwingyoda]

WHAT??? Are you implying you're not really auctioning that baguette?

Imagine, I had a Fidel Castro in my school *wacko*

[Mister Phes]

Well I had a Connie and Samuel Castro at my school... That's not quite the same is it?

I read this this morning, and I'm shocked!

[Sarg_Kulo]

They could have at least called it a star wars name :D

[Mister Phes]

Yeah its pretty hard to take isn't it?

Morons...that's just simply gay. I bet it's an American family with low income and no brains because they have no imagination at all to name their kid. It's sad and pathetic.

[xwingyoda]

Any one for Jar Jar :-D

[Sarg_Kulo]

I'd rather be called Sebulba myself :P

[Mister Phes]

I'd rather invent my own name. Oh wait! I have...

Well, the other kid's name is Fernando Martinez Corona, so I don't know about 'American'. ;)

As usual we are once again off topic.

Back on topic:

I get the impression that the majority of people registered to this forum are from Western or European societies. However, these Bionicle names may be common in various parts of the world, such as the more tribal/indigenous races, like islanders of the South Pacific for example. Since we're not accustomed to these names they sound exotic.

In the article she was called Gali. I have a friend from Israel called Gali.

The "problem" in this case is not the name per se but the reason to give it.

[Mister Phes]

I think I'll name my kids Captain Roger and King Kahuka...

No, I think its a family of low income that imigrated to an insignificant FAR north american country from some former communist eastern block country.....wait....oh yeah, my mistake, that was SOMEONE ELSE ;)

Going way off topic is bad enough, so please no insults to other countries, that's really offensive.

I really don't see the big deal, many people name their children after these types of things. Just look at people named Yoshi, many are named after the Mario character, just like how this person will be named after a BIONICLE character. I don't see the difference.
