'Ugly but well hung' has a nice ring to it.Trouble is, if it was my name i'd have great
difficulty faking the well hung part....no problem with the ugly,though.

This is an odd thread seeing how, as part of the integration of natives in Canada children were denied their language and their name. Popular names on a local reserve (Mohawk) are McGregor and McComber.

Indeed. And I'm sorry, but the first nations people of North America tend to have a bit of a sense of humour failure at people laughing at native names and dressing up like 'Indians' etc.

Had the title of the thread been "give yourself a silly name based on some aspect of your personality like Kevin Costner does in Dancing with wolves" I would laugh along but it is the "Native American" part that I find fault in.

I heard that Tony Blair was giving a lecture to Native Americans and was pleased at the end when they gave him the name Walking Eagle. When Tony left the gathered press asked the native why they had given Tony such a name. They said he is so full of sh@t he can't fly! Allegedly.

Is the term Native American offensive ?
