I wonder if people are always intimidated?

I just had to send a somewhat nasty email to a "michael Myers"


Yeah, I'm watching my back today.

    Don't worry, he won't come after you for a few months yet.

    It could be worse... I was named after the female lead in the "Apple Dumplin Gang". Although I was told until my twenties that I was named after the donkey on that show..... My family.... hilarious....

    I named my daughter Regan :)

    I love horror movies! I tried to find a good one for my son but I didn't want to go the traditional route of Michael or Freddy...LOL
    Although I do like Malachi but I was too afraid he might actualy be a red head...haha

    Without any thought or reference to horror movies, I named my children Jason and Cari. I definitely got what I deserved! :o)

    Don't know about horror movie characters but my surname is Bowser. I've heard every Super Mario joke possible.

    My parents were going to name me after the place I was conceived but they felt that "back of a buick" was too awkward of a name for a child.

    Being named after horror movie characters makes me think of people who are named after famous people....

    From Office Space:

    Samir: No one in this country can ever pronounce my name right. It's not that hard: Na-ghee-na-na-jar. Nagheenanajar.

    Michael Bolton: Yeah, well, at least your name isn't Michael Bolton.

    Samir: You know, there's nothing wrong with that name.

    Michael Bolton: There *was* nothing wrong with it... until I was about twelve years old and that no-talent *kitten* clown became famous and started winning Grammys.

    Samir: Hmm... well, why don't you just go by Mike instead of Michael?

    Michael Bolton: No way! Why should I change? He's the one who sucks.

    I dated a Michael Meyer. He's the one that just won't let go... Even when I tell him I'm not interested in him anymore, he still sends me inappropriate messages.

    Hopefully he doesn't come after me... eek!:noway:

    I wasnt named after a movie character, but I was named after Ronnie James Dio. :noway:

    I am thankful that my parents introduced me to such great musicians/artists, but seriously?!?

    Im a girl. They named me Veronica just so they can call me Ronnie.

    I love Black Sabbath and Ronnie James Dio is awesome, but I can't stand being called Ronnie or RJ.

    & Veronica James sounds like a Pr0nstar name. :grumble:

    My name is Regan - take your pick: possessed child in Exorcist or crazy daughter in King Lear. Depending on the day, they both apply...
