You know what? I really like the name 'Alice'.

Danny Himself · 05.17.2008, 07:42 PM

Not only does it conjure up a warm nostalgia for my early childhood, when my mother would read Alice In Wonderland to my sister and I in our slum home, but it reminds of me of the attractive french girl in my art college called Alice.

Also I'd like to bring back the name Jemima, because the mere mention of the name makes the pages of many a Beatrix Potter storybook come streaming back to me.

Any names got any particular personal significance to you? I'm not really arsed, but tell me anyway.

Alice makes me think of this song

I'm a bit concerned that if I'll marry someone who'll let me name my children something utterply preposterous like Tacitus.

My new cousin is about to be born any day now, and my uncle still retains that he's going to call the child Caractycus if it's a boy, and Bodicea if it's a girl.

In Liverpool? It'll last about a week.

Perish the thought!

He lives in a village in Cheshire.

Elizabeth has been the name of two longtime girlfriends and a one longtime friend.

All three of whom I rarely speak to anymore.

Tom is another one. The best friend I ever had is named Tom, another close friend named Tom, a kid named Tommy was a particularly vicious bully to me as a child, my stepfather's name is Tom and my uncle's name is Tom.

Jade is another one.

Jessica is all over the place for me, too.

we tried to be somewhat original. we named our kids aidan and ireland.

Alice makes me think of the word ass. Whenever a pretty girl tells me her name is Alice, I have to pretend I'm not thinking of her ass. She might find it objectionable.

That Alice does not have an ass I like to think about, however.

Alex's Trip · 05.17.2008, 10:32 PM

You're too picky.

Did you know at that gig, Lemmy was the Sisters' supplier of pure amphetamine sulphate? they must've been off their tits the whole gig. And for that I salute the Lemster

This is the song I think of when I hear that name:

One of my favorite songs by Tom Waits actually.

I don't know why, but I think "Io" would be really great as a girl's name

Gulasch Noir · 05.18.2008, 03:30 AM

My first girlfriend's name is Alice. Pronounced francophonically, of course.

Is that a first-time mention for Terrorvision? I really liked their first 3 albums back in the day.

Derek · 05.18.2008, 07:15 AM

Alice reminds me of the Tom Waits album.
