wolf5370 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Nickname to avoid like the plague IMO: 'Cos there's too many of them: - Noi - Dang - SomChai (just about every murderer, drugdealer and gangster is called Somchai) - Tip (Also English jokes about rubbish tips in school if in West) Don't work in English: - Moo (means Pig which uis hard to explain and sound like a cow in English) - Mee (Spunds troo much like 'Me' - confusing in English) - Ngoo (or Anything beginning Ng...) - Yoo/Yu (sounds like 'You' - confusing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf5370 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 I quite like Peechit too. It means 'Great King/Leader' or something like that, which could be translated to 'Richard' in English (same meaning). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edward B Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Why not wait till you know what sex it is going to be. That will narrow the choices down alot, and save you time messing around with half of the names that aren't going to get a show anyway. Are there any Thai names that are bi-sexual? I mean, can be used by a boy or girl, such as Chris, Viv, Kim etc. How about Emily เอมมิลี Does that look right? Nickname can be M ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
