Also this...
The reality TV star took to Twitter to continue her tirade attacking ginger babies, obese parents and kids with names like Rhiannan, Sky, Dwayne, Chesney and Tanya.
Her Twitter rant on kids names she deemed socially inferior to her own added insults to ginger babies for good measure.
She said: I stand by every word. Thank you to all teachers, parents, mums that are also tired of the lowest common denominator.

(4,558 posts)Around 5:56 she rails against geographical names, then it's pointed out that her own child is named India. She says there's no geographic association with the name. Staggering.

(12,882 posts)Courtesy Flush is what someone should do with her. Actually, I immediately had another Un-PC title come to mind for her. I can't say it here (or much anywhere else anymore!), but when I was in the service, we had a particular style of dress hat that was affectionately referred to as a **** cap. Courtesy Flush - yeah that would be great. No one deserves to have to put up with her stench.

God, she doesn't even like gingers.

(6,151 posts)Yeah, they'll holler "up the monarchy!" and hate Germans when the House of Windsor isn't exactly Anglo Saxon itself. But you'd go nuts waiting for them to make a lick of sense.
Here's the jingle we learned to skip rope to as kids:
Up the long ladder
Down the short rope
To hell with King Billy
And God save the pope
It was the only time well-reared youngsters were allowed to say to hell with anyone. But many of the Free Irish haven't forgotten the Irish holocaust that stretched over a century when GB regularly swept our island clean of youngsters from the age of 10 up and hauled them off to the British Indies for 'work opportunities'. Or a once-secret official document of more recent vintage proclaiming, "At last we shall be free of the scourge of the Irish in Ireland!" It was systematic, deliberate, long term genocide.

(2,560 posts)I wonder what she thinks about people called "Katie".
And "Piers" is Latin for "parasite"? I haven't done Latin for 45 years, but my first thought was that Piers was a form of Peter. Google translate tells me the L->E for Piers is Piers and E->L is Petrus. Who'd a thunk it?
And she's right about names coming up before magistrates. That's because there are probably millions more Davids and Marys than there are Indias and Poppys. I expect even Tyler is something of a rarity.

(4,558 posts)Listen to the whole thing. She actually criticizes names based on geography and on physical objects, yet won't concede that her own children fit into those categories.
EDIT: Just found this...

(15,189 posts)She's blaming the wrong persons. It's the dumb parents who name their kids stupid names sometimes, and that isn't good for the kid when they attend school. We have misspelling of names of how we used to spell them. I think it's ridiculous. Children pick up on the easiest way to make fun of someone, and your name is fair game to them.
I have a friend who's kid is in college. One mother got mad at the teacher because she pronounced her daughters name. The name was Le-a. The teacher called her Lea. The mother said her name was Le"dash"a. Stupid.
