    2 of my chinese friends adopted english names by choice as its easier on phone calls etc.


    Its not racist its practical

    Why does this woman care? Outrage after the fact....

    I know plenty of foreign people go by shortened or completely different names.

    This woman has the most painful whiny voice...what is the point of this call?!?

    I have a really awkward surname I don't care if people mispronounce it.

    Enough of this woke bullsh!t. Chinese business owners who come to Ireland give themselves fake names to avoid confusion

    Duffy can barely speak English

    She's offended on behalf of people who couldn't give a f.ck.

    The lad who's talking about pronunciation.



  • Registered Users Posts: 15,374 ✭✭✭✭McDermotX


    Know a few Indian lads called John and Mark (their choice BTW) and best of all, one lad who's nickname is Tonto.


    Don't ask 😂

    This is honestly akin to someone writing "Eva" instead of "Aoife" on a Starbucks order.



  • Registered Users Posts: 33,048 ✭✭✭✭gmisk


    This woman is a wreck the head.

    People can sometimes mispronounce names... revelatory.

    I would say the teachers hate the bloody site of her.

    I have an odd obsession of calling people with Oirish names the English version, sort of knowing I know the lingo so to speak. Muireann is Maureen, Seamus is James etc etc.

    A few years back very popular names like Jack and Chloe were resulting in 4 or 5 kids in the one class having the same first name, how in the jaysus did the teachers manage without causing offence in this PC wurdled.



  • Registered Users Posts: 15,374 ✭✭✭✭McDermotX


    You get yourself over to Japan and see how they butcher your name love
