Names

From www.talkingcock.com:

Parents: thinking of what to call your baby, but sick of the usual Johnsons and Jaslyns? Want something more creative or current? You need to consult the TalkingCock Guide to Cutting Edge Ah Beng Names for Chewren:

NAME YOUR CHILD AFTER MOVIES
Note: Names of actual movie stars, e.g. "Brad" or "Jennifer", are out. Names of movie characters are in.:
SHREK, e.g. Shrek Chin Ah Chee
NEMO, e.g. Nemo Loh Han Hee
FRODO, e.g. Frodo Chin Kah Teck
LEGOLAS, e.g. Legolas Ng Tau Mor
ARWEN (recommended; already sounds like a local name), e.g. Arwen Tan Ah Wen )

NAME YOUR CHILD AFTER THE PLACE THEY WERE CONCEIVED
PHUKET, e.g. Phuket Kee Chiak Hong
CARPARK, e.g. Carpark Phang Koo Poon
BEDROOM, e.g. Bedroom Lai Kee Koon
GEYLANG, e.g. Geylang Loh Rong Wan

NAME YOUR CHILD AFTER YOUR FAVOURITE CONSUMER GOODS
ARMANI, e.g. Armani Chin Ah Kwee
ERICSSON, e.g. Ericsson Kah Thian Wei
SONY, e.g. Sony Boey Wei Gah
BEARDPAPA, e.g. Beardpapa Chia Kao Song
BUBBLE TEA, e.g. Bubble Lim Say Goh

NAME YOUR CHILD AFTER POPULAR BUSINESSES
BIOTECH, e.g. Biotech Liah Boh Kiew
ECOMMERCE, e.g. Ecommerce Goh Sim Lim
BREADTALK, e.g. Breadtalk Kong Loh Tee
MLM, e.g. Network Mah Ker Ting

NAME YOUR CHILD AFTER PLACES YOU WANT TO EMIGRATE TO
PERTH, e.g. Perth Khee Aw Chiu
CALIFORNIA, e.g. California Chee Jin Shan
CHINA, e.g. China Chin Chee Nah
BANGKOK, e.g. Bangkok Goh Beng Kok

NAME YOUR CHILDREN AFTER POPULAR PASTIMES
TOTO, e.g. Toto Teo Bay Pio
SHOPPING, e.g. Taka Goh Shor Peng
KARAOKE, e.g. Karaoke Goh Sing Song (Kara Oh Kay Eng also can)
SNOOKER, e.g. Snooker Phua Bee Liat
WATCHING TV, e.g. Teevie Quah Kow Hsien

I think that's quite a good laugh. I remember seeing one for names like Monica Chng (touch your buttocks), Nelson Tan (bird lay egg). I myself have a few friends who names were quite weird; they have meaning like dirty clothes, smelly mattress. In fact, I know one Nelson Tan!

To Reader: Sorry if your name coincide with any of the above mentioned names! No harm intended!
