Coming across as a real dinosaur on this one
Ha ha, you could be right. We're all allowed a little grumpiness about aspects of modern life though. This is one of mine.
Was only a random irritation tho 🤷â€â™‚ï¸

What is a “baby doll†name ?!
And we get lots of CV’s and not once have we judged or put someone in a “no†pile based on their name and doubt any respectable company would do as well because it’s just someone’s name.
Tbf I wouldn’t judge someone on their name,I might judge their parents tho.
My son use to go to nursery with a girl called Beyoncé.
Her mum use to still be in her Pj’s when dropping her off 🙈😂
True story
We couldn't be that lucky surely...Please tell me her surname was Castle 🤣😂

Do your kids go to school in Swanley as this is a regular occurrence at one of my kids schools 😂 however it tends to be wearing a onsie, with its hair up in a pineapple and wearing fluffy slippers, her kids name is Duke and every time I hear her call her kid I expect Boyces dog from Only fools and horse to come running along 😂Tbf I wouldn’t judge someone on their name,I might judge their parents tho.

If there were other candidates with the same qualifications then it comes down to little details. You are dead right, if a candidate is a mile ahead of another then of course it doesn't matter but that rarely happens. There are usually similar candidates at a similar level. How do you then start to pick apart? Obviously you interview but you have to get to the interview stage first. Why hamstring someone?I bet if they had a Master's degree, Phd and the right experience you wouldn't put them in a no pile.

The little details does not include the person’s name - not one agency I have worked with has ever judged based on someone’s name and poor to even think it that way.If there were other candidates with the same qualifications then it comes down to little details.

This exactly. The kids didn't choose them.I think this is the key with this irritation, I wouldn't judge the person as I've worked with some people with some random names. But hugely judge the parents who thought those ridiculous names were a good idea to name a child like that.
Exactly the child suffers.. 2 of my favourites I've worked with over the years were 2 guys one called Blessing and the other Napoleon, you can only imagine the ribbing they took from people. Top blokes and good workers though.This exactly. The kids didn't choose them.
Anyway, this is a random irritation, nothing more.
That's an absolute banger Fragger 😂We were talking about dodgy kids names at work today.
My daughter used to go to school with Jenna Taylor. And my boss has a son with a friend called Robert Tickle, that’s fine but he has a sister called Tess.
I’ve heard of “character building†but ....
That's an absolute banger Fragger 😂
That's even better than a lad I played football at school with called Mike Hunt.
Did Mike have a twin cos the lad I knew did it'd be amazing if it was same fella..I worked with a mike hunt and a James Bond
They're was a Richard [ Dick ] Puller drank in or local pupI worked with a mike hunt and a James Bond
