Tchooptip Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Coconut. She's only half Thai ... brown on the outside, but white inside. It's a camouflage trick. BTW ... my stockbroker is named Miss Supaluk ! One of gf's best friends is named Miss Poo ... it's actually pronounced with a soft 'B' to start with Bpoo ... means 'crab' in Thai ... but I digress ... Miss Supaluk, you heard it or saw it in writing :-) for SUDARUK is a Thai name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunPer Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I had a GF in Vietnam named Tak, my next GF was named Toe. I tried and tried but could not make the trifacta by finding a girl named Tik. Is Tik a Thai female name? I can't say I recall any ladies named Tik in Thailand. I hope female – having met more than one Tik I know a girl named Fanta – and of course girls with all the common nick- or short names Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HerbalEd Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I've know: A, B, C, D, E, K, O, & P (although not spelled that way) My all time favorite is Cartoon ... and, indeed, she was a real Loony Tunes. And then there was Om, with whom I tried to reach enlightenment during climax by chanting her name. And finally ... although a bit off subject: Most of us have seen many clubs throughout S.E. Asia, HK, PI, etc. named "Susie Wong" after the famous American movie about a HK prostitute. Well I came up with what I think is a great name for a katoy bar: Susie Slong.

Dap Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Boom. That is a real name. A ladies name? Just curious as the only time I have encountered it is as the nickname of a friend's son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arthurwait Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) Boom. That is a real name. A ladies name? Just curious as the only time I have encountered it is as the nickname of a friend's son. Yep a friend of my wife is called it although she writes in incorrectly in English as Bum. These are all nicknames that their parents give them as well as the real name. The nicknames aren't male or female. Edit: I'd better put most incase some actually are.
