Thai celeb's lucky name change goes viral

[JoeThePoster]

Of course, the evil spirits that live in the 4th dimension with super powers like passing through walls, etc. are totally flummoxed and think she's a completely different person now.

Name changes used to be quite common in the UK where I used to work........in the Psychiatric Hospital.

Well it's either this or one of the several threads running about Dennis Rodman or the many threads worrying about what Thai people think of all farang. I'm not sure which is worse, the mind-numbing content of some of these threads or the fact that I actually feel the need to click the links to check them out.

There may be something in this name changing lark.

My neighbour changed his name from plain old Somchai to Police Lieutenant Somchai and now at every restaurant and bar he goes to they ply him with free food and drink.

How lucky is that!

What next? Water into gold because spirits told me? I think they are dumber than dumb

Wifey's sister has also changed her name twice for good luck.

We have a few Chinese friends who have done the name change thing with a view to better fortune etc.

Also Englebert Humperdinck from Gerry Dorsey seemed to work!

nothing to do with the fact he could sing????

I thought they were "hand job, hand job, I said hand job!".

[LuckyLew]

I would do her ....

[Torrens54]

"is now known as Khakkingrak Khikkhiksaranang."

Love this name although can't pronounce it unless I got hiccups.

Also good for people with a stutter!

Sounds "Greek" to me! 555.

Don't think you or I could get away with that. Someone might think the "Farangs" are trying a scam.

Divine intervention... she went to Lourdes, France?

[noitom]

Who gives a <deleted>, if an airhead wants to be called this or that?

Seriously?

News?

Celebrity culture. Very bad all over the world.

[Old Croc]

The luckiest thing to happen to this person was the blend of genes which gave her the face and figure to become a minor celebrity in a silly land.

Playing around with her name has attracted some publicity, but it isn't going to change anything long term

Genes....?? More like surgeon's knife I'd imagine. Nose/t*ts/teeth look distinctly un-Thai to me..... Just one more from a long line of talentless attention whores...

It's Khao Sod news. This is what they do.

[tomyummer]

Such a typical thing to do in Thailand. Big headaches. Must really make parents around the kingdom proud knowing you carelessly misnamed your kid and therefore must change the name. Also sucks for future generations when trying to track your lineage.

[tomyummer]

I'm just wondering if this can apply to marriages? Bad luck, time for a new one honey? My lucky number is '8' so I need that many wives for good luck?

I reckon what actually happened is she wanted to change her name to Kat but the typewriter key got stuck are the local amphur office

Yes I was thinking something similar. Kat King for example. . . news?

Anything can be news. How about current affairs?

Makes a change from the politicians who are about as sensible as actors anyway.

[Somtamnication]

I asked my wife to change her name to Titiporn and she refused.

[Chao Lao Beach]

Chiti-Chiti-Bang-Bang would be a lucky name too

[SantiSuk]

Beautiful girls are always lucky - until the point they become self-obsessed. This one has already gone way over the edge

Frequently taking off jeans may have also played some part, I suspect.

[GentlemanJim]

It works. I changed my name by deed poll and was able to have a car registration that fitted my name exactly, something that would normally costs tens of thousands. Don't knock it.

your sincerely

My new girlfriend said she wanted to change her name and I was surprised at how easy it is to do here. Great for criminals eh?

I suggested Liptonicetealollypop
