abysmal real names

that's a great name imo

i agree honestly, except think the 'oh' sounds are awkwardly situated. abysmal names to me are like hard white consonants and vowels mashed up together. parents who should have known better, somehow they missed that the full name was objectively ugly. mr. and mrs. gardner thinking that 'demarr' is fab just because grandpa was named that or w/e. when you say demarr gardner you sound like a yorkie barking at a passing car imo. that is probably way too much thought about what an abysmal real name is that no one asked for.

indigo is a lovely name but i'm a hippie so *shrugs*

It does sound like a refrain from an English folk song/ sea shanty

one of those 50/50 decisions that could have gone into 'great' but honestly i can't cope with this one

That cricket website is a goldmine for anybody writing a novel set in the late 1800s where the villain is a British imperialist. It's almost like a random name generator but with actual names. All you have to do is smush together a forename and some surnames. Obviously you can't use real names otherwise the people who owned those names would take legal action. As per e.g. Ernő Goldfinger, who tried to sue Ian Fleming for using his surname but decided against it, perhaps foreseeing what would come to be called the Streisand Effect.

William Conrad Francis Smeed is an evil-sounding name, and yet instead of dedicating his entire life to evil he decided to occupy some of his time with cricket, so he can't be entirely evil. He might not be evil at all! NB I'm writing this in case he googles his own name and finds this thread. He's a trained cricketer with access to body armour and a cricket bat. It's sad clicking on some of those names and seeing that they last played in 2020. Sometimes I forget that COVID ever happened, and then something comes along and reminds me.

Do you know how see the cuckoo cloths. Cookit cloths.
