    My wife works a job where low-income hospital patients have their insurance claims come across her desk often. As a result, she gets to see tons of names that make her laugh or simply shake her head. She likes to share these with me. Some of the more memorable ones include Juicy Waters (a girl destined to be a stripper), and my personal favorite, Sinister Badman, which would be an awesome comic book villain except nobody would accept it as a real name. People name their kids whatever they want now days. Some are cool, while others are groan-worthy

    "Like" would be a great name, for marketing reasons.

    "Like me on facebook". Brilliant.

    You couldn't have the name Twitter Gruber? It sounds quite Germanic.

    Keep your name, people will just fuck with you otherwise (unless they never knew the original ofc). Had a guy who always wanted us to call him Spike so we humoured him and did so right up until he got his name legally changed to Spike at which point we all started calling him by his original name until he actually cried about it. Good old times at the skatepark

    If you think that changing your name will improve your life in any aspect, I would go for it. Humans love to discriminate against each other over the dumbest shit.
