Re Caitlyn. That is the name of my female child.
Yesterday, I asked them to send me the paperwork to change her name.

Please tell me you're calling her "Bruce" now.

Susan (remember that lesbian, feminazi, America-hating, Christ-hating woman Susan B. Anthony) -- you could change it to Sarah, in honor of the lovely GOP, right wing Sarah Palin!

Joan (she is a Cathylick saint for dressing up like a man. )

Caitlyn

I know this is off topic, but do you think he throws like a girl now?

A secular girl, perhaps. But a girl who fears the Lord, he is weaker than even a feeble-minded Christian woman. After all, the Lord decreed "Strength and honour [are] her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come". Proverbs 31:25 I hope this may help answer your question, Mrs. Etheldreda.

Maybe, in which case I wonder if "Caitlin" will enter the women's heptathlon at the 2016 Olympic Games, which I think are being held in southern Messico. I know he will be 66 years old, but I assume he still has his manly muscles which should enable him to beat any woman. Plus there are only 6 events (or is it 8? I never learned Latin) in the heptathlon and he is used to doing 10, so it should be easy for him.

To get back on topic, the name Sepp is now forever blighted for me.

Barak- too close to the name of our current President. Such a shame, seeing as I've always wanted to give that name to a future son.

Presidential names always become popular.

I might be stepping out on a limb, here, but I suspect this must be sarcasm.

It's not sarcasm, but a fine example of why I shouldn't be posting and dusting at the same time. I meant to say that I've always thought that Barak would be a good middle name for a son if (emphasis on "if") I could find a Biblical first name to go with it. So far, I haven't had any luck.

I've liked the name (again, as a middle name), but I feel that it's been ruined by the Anti-Christ-in-Chief and one of Samuel's cousins who named a son after him, but forgot the "c" when she spelled it out to be put on the birth certificate. The spelling is Biblical, but the intent behind it has completely ruined the name for me.

Edit: Samuel just looked over my shoulder and would like me to add that if he and I get married, I will not, under any circumstances, be allowed to use Barak as a middle name.

I found this statistic online:

They have a poll in case you feel like voting on the name caitlyn.

We'll see how these stats stand up over time!
