Think about it though. In like 100 years, the irony will wear off, and you'll have Millers, Carpenters, Smiths, and fucking Gigachads. It'd work, it just might take awhile.
If you’re still using some old and insecure encryption, you’re basically inviting the kids to practice their skills with your WLAN. If you notice that they’ve figured out how to crack WEP, it’s time to move on to WPA and see how long it takes them to find a way in.
My kid would genuinely love it, it's right up his alley in terms of humor. My sense of humor is generally quite a bit darker, but I thought of it and it made me chuckle so I used it.
I just asked him what he thought of the username pooptart and he started giggling and went on an ADHD fueled set of concepts that ended with "what if you pooped a car?" But by then my own ADHD was only barely listening.
"No, that was not Zathras, that was Zathras. There are 10 of us, all of family Zathras, each one named Zathras. Slight differences in how you pronounce. Zathràs, Zathrás, Zathrâs.. You are seeing now?"
I don't have kids, but I imagine they'd be pissed to have to write out such a long name: Jennifer Grasshopper_Mouse? That shit would go aaaaall the way across the page.
The prophecy will come true and they'll die in the next Great Depression, aka, the "Big Sad", so yes they'll hate me. Or maybe if they like dark humor / are nihilist, they'll quite enjoy the username because at least the death would be a "username checks out" moment.
This is basically what happened in the Netherlands in the past.
I once met a woman whose family name was Boschpijper. Bosch means bush and pijper means dicksucker.
Those nicknames were kind of a joke, but then they followed in official records, but nobody cared. Then, after some generations of them having been written down, they were suddenly something important. And now the family of Boschpijpers have carried their name with pride for several centuries.
Up until the end of elementary school- they'll love it! From there on out they'll probably cringe so hard. After watching and enjoying Monty Python as grown-ups I think they'll like it again.
I've used this name in public as a new identity. I think once my kids know i used it as a form of self identity, they'd either partially adopt it or choose their own name as well.
I think they would mainly hate it because it would infringe on their own self-identity. No one I know in real life knows my user name, and no one who knows my user name knows my irl identity. That would be the biggest problem.
Eh, it's pretty descriptive of me but I wonder if my kids would be the same. They'll be monotheistic, most likely at least, but yappy/argumentative is not a given. 🤷
Id say you have it backwards. Being argumentative is a genetic trait mostly, although outside influence can override that. While theism isn't genetic in any way, and growing up in a religion is often the catalyst that turns them away.
well, I'm snipped so that's not a problem, but if we decided to for some reason adopt, they probably wouldn't love it. I wonder if tabbed browsing would ever go away and it would be a surname based on something that everyone forgets (there are more obscure examples but for example Cooper, Cobbler, Fletcher, Bowyer, Tyler, Taylor, Brewster, etc.)
Hopefully they inherit the psychopomp job too and it is a career resilient to AI and self-driving cars. If Waymo works in the Underworld, they will be looking for new career options like every other Z and younger.
If they want the job, of course. I'm not one of those old school escorts of the dead that insists the kids follow in parents' footsteps.
lol idk
I don’t think they’d care.
I wish I could be so lucky.

Assuming you're American, based on your username and instance. Hope that helps.
I'd imagine that mine would end up like royal names, I'm the weirdest cunt, my child would be the 2nd weirdest cunt and so on
There was a king called “Cnut” - English/Danish name.
Well, they don't hate me, but they do get tired of French people sounding out our shared username and then making jokes about it.
Dude, you misspelled your name it should be: "Qu'est-ce que c'est?" 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🫡 * in a very arrogant French accent*
Le plus drôle c'est que je parle français. Très amusant, n'est-ce pas?
Hon hon hon
Oh, and Talking Heads fans calling them "psycho killer."
They'd better Run run run run run run awaayyyyyyy
Oh you beat me to it !
Right under your own comment
That's far better!
Less than I hate the urologist who was supposed to prevent this.
One of your progeny is destined to be a key advisor to President Camacho, head of 'The Department of Agriculture; Brought to you by KFC/PizzaHut'
They would probably find it pretty cringe
Think about it though. In like 100 years, the irony will wear off, and you'll have Millers, Carpenters, Smiths, and fucking Gigachads. It'd work, it just might take awhile.
My cats will be fine with it.
Did you try asking them? Ask them and please report back with their response
Good idea. I just asked, one ignored me and the other begged for food. Verdict unclear.
That sounds like an overwhelmingly positive response. Alright, I can move this product.
How have I never seen that sketch??
Hey you kids, get off my WLAN!
If you’re still using some old and insecure encryption, you’re basically inviting the kids to practice their skills with your WLAN. If you notice that they’ve figured out how to crack WEP, it’s time to move on to WPA and see how long it takes them to find a way in.
You changed your name to latrine?
It used to be shithouse.
Good change!
Moderately irritated by having to explain "it's literally j j j all js like the word all J's but not this part" all the time
geeawljus
It's reasonably acceptable I guess, what people would hate me for is making jokes about getting a gnu name...
My kid would genuinely love it, it's right up his alley in terms of humor. My sense of humor is generally quite a bit darker, but I thought of it and it made me chuckle so I used it.
I just asked him what he thought of the username pooptart and he started giggling and went on an ADHD fueled set of concepts that ended with "what if you pooped a car?" But by then my own ADHD was only barely listening.
The name's P00ptart...
JAMES P00ptart.
Shaken, not stirred
With normal letters or forever with the goofy ones? 🤔
Definitely goofy.
They'll have to type out the unicode galaxy on every form.
It's literally "TheSloth", so I think we'll all be OK.
It rings different in German though, since Faultier can also be translated as lazy animal.
I love German animal names so much. My favorites are "stink animal" and "sting pig"
"No, that was not Zathras, that was Zathras. There are 10 of us, all of family Zathras, each one named Zathras. Slight differences in how you pronounce. Zathràs, Zathrás, Zathrâs.. You are seeing now?"
Babylon 5
It is the word for little bat in my language, so I'm good.
I get lots of compliments on my username. Came up with it in the 90s and I feel like it aged well.
Could go either way: Good sense of humor but it could still be a problem when it comes to being professional.
Imagine getting terrible medical news from a Dr. Fartswithanaccent.
literally using my surname as my username RN
Found you!
Yeah that joke's not going away any time soon, is it?
If you prefer, we can make jokes about how you don't have a username(or a surname for that matter).
I do prefer that joke, yes, it's a classic.
Eh? Eh?
Captain 🫡
I don't have kids, but I imagine they'd be pissed to have to write out such a long name: Jennifer Grasshopper_Mouse? That shit would go aaaaall the way across the page.
Heh
My surname has 14 characters. My full name has 23. Forms suck.
Well, I'm gonna have to brush up on my Metroid lore.
She would love it
They wonder whether I shagged a devil or one of my ancestors did
The prophecy will come true and they'll die in the next Great Depression, aka, the "Big Sad", so yes they'll hate me. Or maybe if they like dark humor / are nihilist, they'll quite enjoy the username because at least the death would be a "username checks out" moment.
Mediocre audio sound quality compared to better codecs out there, but works on almost anything and the patents are expired.
hopefully they like dead things
Ahhhhhhh, they won't know any difference.
Having the name "to melt" in their native language is not the worst
They're going to be elated, hysterical, I'd even say!
Haskill: Praying to yourself, my Lord? That's not a good sign. Or perhaps it is. Prince of Madness, and all that.
who cares
Well, definitely your son and his ballsack lol!

My surname is basically the state of being drunk. Coming from a family full of alcoholics, that’s fitting.
Could be worse I guess, right /u/SatansMaggotyCumFart
They're cool with it.
Up until the end of elementary school- they'll love it! From there on out they'll probably cringe so hard. After watching and enjoying Monty Python as grown-ups I think they'll like it again.
Probably a bit weird, but it could have been much worse
they're the ones who have killed me.
I've used this name in public as a new identity. I think once my kids know i used it as a form of self identity, they'd either partially adopt it or choose their own name as well.
They're cool with it
Hope mine like shitty candy!
What kids?
My kid would likely say I crushed it.
Everyone can finally choose "dr." option when filling out flight ticket forms guilt free and probably fly free on Canadia Airlines at least once.
Quite a bit, but it could be worse.
'Triple B' could be a decent, non horrible nickname, I agree, could ... be ... a lot worse.
Kids are probably going to make fun of the foot part. Teenage girls are going to ask my sons if the size matches other parts.
I think they would mainly hate it because it would infringe on their own self-identity. No one I know in real life knows my user name, and no one who knows my user name knows my irl identity. That would be the biggest problem.
Checked with my 15 year old daughter: 98% hate.
I think they could have worse
So they’re hemi-semi-hemi-demigods?
I’m not sure mine would understand.
That really depends on their gender and orientation. I assume straight daughters would not be happy.
During early life, they'd like it. As teenagers they'd hate it. In their adult years they'd come back around to liking it again.
If they are at all aware of the world in which we live they would have fallen down the same path anyway.
My kids call me Boursin Cheese because they couldn't pronounce my name (or chose not to)
They get what they give.
They wouldn't hate me at all.
Eh, it's pretty descriptive of me but I wonder if my kids would be the same. They'll be monotheistic, most likely at least, but yappy/argumentative is not a given. 🤷
God, I hope they're not monotheistic.
😆
Id say you have it backwards. Being argumentative is a genetic trait mostly, although outside influence can override that. While theism isn't genetic in any way, and growing up in a religion is often the catalyst that turns them away.
Hey, maybe they can be both, then. 😅
Eh, unless they don't like cute stuff I don't think they'd care lol
They would be wondering whyiI haven't embraced the lifestyle, only adopted the name.
Honestly i would join you in the lifestyle
And they'd be mad about inheriting my poor vision.
Probably slightly less than they already do.
My username is a variety of my name. So less annoyed than the kids of Ladiesman217.
It's alright, I guess, except that nobody in the family (myself included) like singing.
As long as they find their own pocket rocks, I think we're peachy.
As long as I don't name them Steve then we're all good
Just make their middle name not.
The. It's Steve Not Notsteve!
That's perfect!
well, I'm snipped so that's not a problem, but if we decided to for some reason adopt, they probably wouldn't love it. I wonder if tabbed browsing would ever go away and it would be a surname based on something that everyone forgets (there are more obscure examples but for example Cooper, Cobbler, Fletcher, Bowyer, Tyler, Taylor, Brewster, etc.)
They better like pineapple
Nice
Meh. It's no biggie.
🐸
Do they get all my usernames, or just the one on Lemmy?
On the upside, I think this username wouldn't be hard to spell out for people. There's no downside, mine is a perfect username.
I suppose it's not so bad spawning a few minor Riots.
I got mine from my grandfather anyway. Although I won't be having any kids to pass it on.
Not at all
Hopefully they inherit the psychopomp job too and it is a career resilient to AI and self-driving cars. If Waymo works in the Underworld, they will be looking for new career options like every other Z and younger.
If they want the job, of course. I'm not one of those old school escorts of the dead that insists the kids follow in parents' footsteps.
They will dread everything free
I'd be in the center of an uproar.
They would get tired of explaining to everyone that it's not a Runescape reference.
I imagine they would have a multitude of differing perspectives on it.
They probably couldn’t be happier, with a deep sigh of relief, seeing as how most of the others would look.
As long as they don't become Swedish and take a culinary career they should be fine.
Probably not too much
It's... ok?
I was born too early. I reckon my name will fit right in down the line
I don't get it
Your username is now your sirname, how much will your kids hate you
Sir Goldholz
Yeah. Is not that bad
I'm just joking about you mistyping "surname"
If my kids are weebs with poor eyesight, it can serve as their nickname, I guess. Otherwise, they can pretend it's just an uncommon surname.
They will carry the greatest name one could carry. Do you know who I am.
They cannot draw then, rip
If my children are all psychopaths, they might actually appreciate a name like this.
If I were rich enough, my kids wouldn’t care. Money brings all the boys to the yard.
That’s Mr. Porksnort to you, peasant.
Since I am not rich enough to leave an inheritance, my kids will just hate me the usual amount.
Probably kinda normal tbh
meh not that bad compared to most other names
That will entirely depend on people remembering JarJar Binks so I don't know
Just say "only the 90s kids remember Jar Jar Bings!" and everyone else will forget. Well the 4th movie at least they will still remember 5 and 6.
Hate-on for musical Mermaid Deadpool?
