Powerful clans are an achievable dream

Titles and professions aren't first names tho

Imma name my baby Lance Corporal

You think that's bad? I met a guy named Caveman Justis once.

I once knew a dude who changed his name...true story, I shit you not...to: Lord Sir Guy.

We liked to tease him that he was so unsure of his sexuality, he had to remind himself thrice.

fuck it I'm just gonna name my kid "Identitarian Activist"

Does anyone know why some european countries used professions for surnames while others used regions?

don't they generally use both?

then there's my last name, which doesn't mean anything

@Goose Bcause they just used to have one name, and they all knew each other by "William [the] Miller", or "Robert [the] Smith"

And any children they had, grew up into the same profession.

(sons). The daughters of course married men of other professions

Germanic or Latin originated names are the most evropean

That's why royalty titles were so important, because it separated the royal family members from the commoners

No mistake to be made between Sir Robert, and Robert [the] Miller

Tfw when every family name you have, Italian to German to English, is peasant tier

Tfw you come from peasants all across the board

The popular naming trends are pretty funny, because over time you can tell every American's thought was "I want to be unique" but they all ended up trying to be unique in very similar ways. 😑

@⚡Clark⚡ I actually never my other family names that's a good idea

@Goose there’s 3 types of european names; occupational, habitational, and son ofs

Unfortunately a grand-neice of a former boss was actually named "Khaleesi." That's not even the fucking character's name! Wypipo going full "Quantavarius"/"Ladanisha" tier

Or even worse

My 4 closest family names mean “mud cleaner / mud maker” , “hemp farmer” , “molter” and the highest tier being a “son of”

wew I thought this was bout to be the end of me

"sir you are wanted in connection with illegal opinions"

@Jacob We don't have President Harris quite yet

@Nemets descriptive names are how the Jews named themselves

"a topographic name for someone who lived on a weed-covered plot of land, or a nickname for a poor farmer or someone who was not highly"

yep my family were peasants

another one of my family names: "unflattering nickname for a moaner"

After much searching I cannot find a meaning for my last name. (not Anderson).

So probably were just farmers

Irish surnames are usually a little different because muh clans

If I told you where in Ireland mine was from you’d know what it was so can’t
