Ever Met Someone With A Name That "Didn't Fit"?

Have you ever met someone with a name that seemed unusual for their age? [name_u]Ever[/name_u] met someone with a name that didn’t match their personality? [name_u]Ever[/name_u] met someone with a name that just seemed odd for that person?

For example there’s an elderly woman in my couple in my town named [name_u]Tony[/name_u] and [name_u]Cam[/name_u], which are quite modern for older folks in my opinion. I also know a young mother named [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] (under 35 years old) who looks like a teenager and has definitely associated the name with a strong, spunky personality for me. I also know a young father named [name_m]Carmello[/name_m]. Which is just a freaking awesome name that I wouldn’t expect to see on an adult.

I know a 7 year old boy named [name_m]Dougie[/name_m]! I didn’t expect [name_u]Douglas[/name_u] on a boy these days, but it fits him pretty well.

I know an 18 year old Gordon, and he actually fits his name surprisingly well.

I met one of my son’s play-school teachers. She’s a fat, smiley, wholesome and humorous woman who can’t be any older than her early 30s. Her name? [name_f]Karen[/name_f]! - I actually like the name now that I can relate it to her.

I know a five-year old Ursul@ “Lul@” – Her name definitely surprised me at first, but I think it really suits her now.

[name_f]Amanda[/name_f] is a very cute name for a little girl!

Oh my goodness, I LOVE the idea of [name_m]Dougie[/name_m] on a little boy! How precious!

It’s a common name here in [name_f]Canada[/name_f], it’s got no real “age” here. Still lovely!

[name_m]Mark[/name_m] is a very handsome name!

I have a cousin named [name_f]Karen[/name_f]! It’s a very cute name (though I prefer Katherine). Shame it was ruined by the memes.

I work with a K@r@ who is in her 70s!

[name_f]Ursula[/name_f] is such a gorgeous name! I always think of the 4th century saint or the badass villain from The [name_m]Little[/name_m] Mermaid. You don’t often see “U” names, making [name_f]Ursula[/name_f] a rare treat!

[name_u]Brayden[/name_u] on a woman? How strange! And [name_m]Gerald[/name_m] on a 10 year old is certainly interesting too! I just hope poor [name_f]Karen[/name_f] doesn’t get bullied at school because of the [name_f]Karen[/name_f] memes. Still, nice to see 80s names like [name_f]Brittany[/name_f] get more attention. The 80s and 90s are a very underrated time period for names!

Bonus: [name_f]Annette[/name_f] is my grandmother’s name! It’s so cool!
