Romelu Lukaku - A Portmanteau

[blotsfan]

Scnopl.

That kinda sucks.

 

[Gruebeard]

hold on, I just remembered father does have three names. Eh, we don't use them much. I wouldn't be Repa, I'd be Relojo. Better, I guess?

I'm confused. In remembering his middle name, you seem to have changed his last name.

 

[Bumble the Boy Wonder]

...I would be MaMaMa.

First name and two middle names, so I cut his last name.[DOUBLEPOST=1464179958,1464179803][/DOUBLEPOST]

My name would be Arhole.

ARHOLE.

Makes me wish my last name really WAS Pomona.

This explains so much.

The problem with this naming convention, though, is that for the male line, the first two and last two letters of the name will never change.

If Romelu does the same thing for his son, his name would also be Romelu (his middle name is also Menama). If Romelu gives his son a different middle name, however (for instance, I don't know, Howard), his grandson would be named Roholu. And then it just continues down the line.

I was thinking about how it wouldn't work if you had more than one child of each gender. Take @stienman's kids for example. All of his boys would be named after him.

He could go the George Foreman route and make them "[stienman] 1,2,3" etc.

 

[Gared]

Dafrdo. I dunno, I don't see that working for me.

 

[GasBandit]

I wrote my dad an e-mail thanking him for not naming me Arhole. My stepmother apparently found it extremely amusing.

I'd have to involve barrel shifting for the first three:

Maadda <- Original
Addama <- Shift
Damaad <- Shift

Then I'd have to mix it up:

Daadma <- Last middle first
Admada <- Shift
Madaad <- Shift

But I'd still be short two names (as of this post).

Wivata. My son would be Jopota. His son could be Sejata.

 

[bhamv3]

Does this sound like a Pokemon evolutionary chain to anyone else?

 

[Yoshimickster]

Micoro...yes! I sound like a Dragonball character!

 

[grub]

Brdasc, my son would be Mabrsc. My dad would be Arabsc.

 

[PatrThom]

So many of these sound like license plates.

--Patrick

 

[Squidleybits]

CaElCa would be my name. Yikes!

Our daughter would be HeElCa. Also yikes.

 

[Null]

DaCloc. I apparently would be a rapper.

 

[Sparhawk]

Hmmm...

Jofrbr, yep, nope.

Our daughter (using wife's maiden name) would be Kireto, or married Kirebr.

 

[phil]

I'd be...Mafrri? Feel like I should fantasy it up with M'afr'ri or something.

 

[CrimsonSoul]

Rawawa

 

[Yoshimickster]

Jofrbr, yep, nope.

Our daughter (using wife's maiden name) would be Kireto, or married Kirebr.

So I assume she'd get trapped in a VR game that would have 14 really good episodes, and a bunch of needless crap interlaced with a FEW good moments afterwards.

 

[ScytheRexx]

My name would be Frwiri

My wife would be Dimara

My son would be Chwrri

My daughter would be Anmari

This is the type of stuff that builds a fantasy universe, lol.

 

[Simfers]

My name would be Jogéfra (Joseph Gérard François, although we never use the first two).

I however only have the one name, so my son would be... Si? I guess?

Aye. Supongo
