Do names give you a mental image,

[powerskipper]

when you hear someone on the phone,do you Imagen what they look like?

when you hear a name do you have a mental image of that person,

Rosy = pretty rosy cheeks etc

Ethel= in curlers and an apron.

what other names bring an image


and if so what do the names of those on the forum conjure up.


I am not meaning to insult or upset anyone but just curious.

Hey, I hadn't thought of that!

That's it then, who can tell me how to change it?

In fact I typed in name of boat (Miracle)
My name (Brian)
And the system suggested "Mirabriani"

So that's how it happened
Signed Mirabrainy (make something of that?)
