I had a co-worked from the Philippines whose name was Anastacio
His Philippino friends, who mostly spoke Tagalog, called him "Nasty" as for them it was just his nickname !
He was a really REALLY nice guy … we could not bring ourselves to call him that so the rest of us called him "Nat" !

Is Vivian a girls name anywhere? Wow. I never knew that. The manliest person I know with V shaped body and who struck terror in hearts of bowlers is named Sir Vivian Richards. The pride of Caribbean.

Aj_JuneIs Vivian a girls name anywhere? Vivian Vance with Lucille Ball  In the United States, Vivian is more likely to be a name for females than males.

I knew a quiet guy called Loquacious Jones who was actually shy and withdrawn.

Vivian Leigh (Gone With The Wind), Vivian Vance (I Love Lucy), Vivian Blaine (Guys and Dolls). In the U.S. anyway, Vivian is a given name only for girls. |

Though I would normally assume Viviana and Vivienne for girls. But a bit of googling and I found
So even some non-American women have it. Kenyan, Nigerians and Brits too.

Pep Streebeck I don't watch that show. So, it would be that it's a character named Keith you find lame rather than the name itself. JK then. Thanks.

Wow. Trollsalot must be, er, proud of that. I’d be terrified to see a Salzmank entry for that: “Salzmank (n.): a loser who actually wastes his time trying to find out who sang some old songs from a 1972 movie. Ex. ‘Jane, I know you can’t remember the title, but don’t be a Salzmank about it!’” |

Lang. As a first name. A friend and I laughed ourselves silly once over it.
