[cite]Posted By: Essex_Al[/cite]My son and his pregnant girlfriend have just been to lunch with us. He has just said that if it's a boy they want to call him Wentworth - WTF!!!!!!!!!!
And no he's not into golf!
Wentworth means village of the white people , I liked it for our first but the missus vetoed it
My mate's kid has a boy called Ben, my mate goes out with a bloke called Ben and my neighbour is a Ben and they are all very white - what the feck that has to do with it.
Tho Adam - you've learnt your lesson here. Tell no one what you are considering calling your next child - its between you two a private and personal thing. None of my mates tell me, it just gets announced when the baby is born happy and healthy.
'Big Ben' is white.
'Little Ben' (just outside Victoria train station) is black
;o)
Benjamin is a biblical name from thousands of years ago .......and obviously religious people latched on to it and other common biblical names - David, Samuel, Daniel, Adam, Joshua, Stephen, James, John, Peter, Rebecca, Rachel, Mary, Sarah, Ruth and so on..........
So Ben is no more a black person's name than a white person's - and it's generally people who live in 'Christian' countries who use these names. Not many Muslims or Chinese call their kids Ben or Mary, though.
At the primary school in Wandsworth where my wife used to teach they had some "choice" names. My favourite was the twins who were called Blake and Crystal... you can't buy class like that!

I don'tt mind Blake BUT ALL CRYSTAL ANYTHINGS SHOULD BE DESTROYED!

I gave some work to a painter and decorator that I found from an advert in the local paper only to find out that his daughter was called Crystal Alice. Makes me come out in a cold sweat just thinking about it.

You'd have been alright if you wanted red & blue stripes! :-p
Stick to your guns, had my little Girl been born a boy we would have called him Noah. Both sets of parents hated it, but we both loved it. Who cares what others think providing you don't call it crime fighter or something you'll be fine.
