We were never allowed to call each other stupid or say shut up growing up. The reason was because my dad's father never called him by his name. He only called him stupid or shorty. Apparently my grandfather (that I never met) didn't like his name either, but my dad (his third son) got stuck with it.
It is a bad name, but I often thought if I ever had a daughter (which will NEVER happen) I might have named her after him.......sort of. His name is (oh, he'd kill me if he knew I was putting this out there on the internet) Arbrie. I think Aubrey is a pretty name for a girl. Or Audrey. But we don't have to worry about that happening.
