What's In A Name?

Choosing your child's name can be something difficult. Of course you want something that has good meaning or reflects the level of your child cuteness. Giving pretty names in hope that she will grow pretty perhaps? 

 I for one prefer something short, sweet and meaningful. There's no point giving such a long, complicated names when you are only going to call your child with one name. No one is going to call their full name and you are only making their school life miserable. Some kids can't even spell their name because their parents are too creative in name-giving. Nanti sudah besar, mau isi borang pun susah sebab tidak cukup ruang. 

 Kids can be really mean. One of their favourite game is name-calling. When i was in primary school, some boys called me Cynthia Setan instead of Jetan. Anyway, moral of the story is, find a name that'll not be a joke.

 While i was doing data collection in villages in Bau, i came across A LOT of looonnnnggg creative names i wonder where these sub-urban parents got the idea to name their child like that. Clayviea Ivy, Oddillia, Anelficia, Allvyena Grexel, Michael Slassly, Ferterchrista, Fisrisco, Gouffry, Gebydefny, Berthphilltiora.  Creative huh? Mau sebut pun susah. Nama canggih-manggih nanti nenek2, datuk2 di kampung tidak pandai sebut. Nama macam orang putih, canggih-manggih, nanti last2 kena panggil cimut la, dodok la, ehek la, kadut la, cemek la. Ada yang sudah besar panjang pun masih kena panggil baby. 



These are google pictures of funny names.
Flavour Balls? Hahaha


Nice....

Kadang2 cara sebutan orang di kampung memang lari alignment. Satu nama yang agak bahaya di kalangan orang Bidayuh ialah "Sophia". nanti datuk nenek sumbuk babai sebut "Shopiak".....yang membawa maksud....anu perempuan...

 Ok byeee

This is my favourite story of Jesus One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.  Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.  In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.  Sometimes there were two sets of footprints.  Other times there were one set of footprints.  This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life  When I was suffering from anguish, sorrow, or defeat,  I could see only one set of footprints.  So I said to the Lord, "You promised me, Lord,  That if I followed you, you would walk with me always.  But I noticed that during the most trying periods of my life  There have only been one set of prints in the sand.  Why, When I have needed you most, you have not been there for me?" The Lord replied,  "The times when you have seen only one set of footprints  Is when I carried you." When times are tough, when you feel so lonely and ho...
