What are the best human-being first names in your opinion? - Lemmy.World

(Try to be objective and not just out your own first name at the top! You wouldn’t want to tell your name to strangers on the internet, would you?)

Liz, short for Lizard. “Liz? Is that short for Elizabeth?” “No….”

I love calling various Lizzies “Lizard.” And Sally is short for ‘Salamander.’ Bill is short for ‘Billiards,’ ¹ Leo is short for Leopard and maybe Lee is short for Leezard as well. Penny is short for Penguin.

That said, we do have a lot of funny animal first names.

  • Arthur, Bjarni, Ursula and Orson all mean 'bear.'
  • Robin and Robyn
  • Rudolph is a type of wolf
  • Rana means “beautiful” until you go to a spanish speaking country, where it means 'frog’

Billiards is not an animal admittedly. Sometimes it can be short for Shoebill
