Their choice,who cares really.

its going to take me a while before I can remember them, pronounce them and spell them thats for sure

We have three variations of the same name in a Safia, Sophia and a Sophie.

There's a lot of S's this year.

Americans have a very bad habit of making names up i have to say.

But then Hey, why not.....but some of em are stoopid names , maury being a classic example of daft names for guests

I was on a baby naming forum recently and someone was seriously asking whether the name L'Aquarius was more suitable for a baby boy or girl.

And that Pierce Brosnan.

Ciaron doesn't pronounce his like "Kieron" (or the other spellings of the same name) so I think his is a different name altogether?

Nearly all Irish names outdate their english form, in X-Factor the subject of Eoghan name was a major taking point and more-so it's spelling, however Eoghan is the original spelling of the name.

neve!

Oh!

I pronounced it that many different ways I ended up just sort of going nom nom nom nom nom nom nom......

Not Kneeaham!

Well, I did have a bit of a nyam nyam nyam phase before I got to nom nom.

I always used to pronounce Roisin like Raisin in an Irish Accent!

Narrowminded. I think. These Irish names you know...

What is a stupid name? One that is outside your culture and comfort zone?

By the end of this series, I'm sure the housemates will have shown a lot more to despise about them other than their name.
