Default 'chav' names!?

Speaking to a mate, and she thinks that 'Ronnie and Reggie', for twins is chavvy.... WTF is it with the word chav, I fucking hate it

I also know two chippys also called Ronnie and Reggie, Hardly a chav name when its an old name, when 'chav' wasn't about.

What is a chav name?!

New lass started at my work this week, her name is "Terri".

We ripped her a bit for having a "chav" name, or the way its spelt anyway, but she is far from "chav" to be honest, nice enough girl, just a laugh.

chav names are like normal names but spelt with z's instead of s's or i's instead of y's etc etc.

Oh, and there is another person at my work. He is a valet, die hard Celtic fan, tattoo's everywhere, proper Glasgow ned, his name is Dylan, he's about... 23/24 year old? and has a kid who is 6, the kid's name is Henrik. Named after Celtic and Sweden hero Henrik Larsson... 100% truth.

I think people often confuse "chav" with "pikey" or just simply "common".

Names like Ignatius, Julian and Tarquin are far more upper class and if I ever have children I shall be calling the little fuckers something like that so they get bullied at school and as a pre-emptive strike on the shit they are bound to cause when they get older.

What is a chav name?!
I think they are a chav names personally as the typical chav will probably think they are being "gangsta" calling their kids that. When in fact the closest they probably have been to a gangster is in the queue for family allowance.

Yeah, the names have been around a long time but so had burberry before it became a chav icon.

Would be pretty fucking sad if you called your twins Ronnie n Reggie I get what she means, the names may not be Chav, but you can be almost sure, considering the reasoning someone would call their kids that, the parent would be a right nobhead

Oh yeah! why's that then?? mobsters are heros to alot of people. The Kray twins were bad fuckers but at least they had some morals unlike alot of the vermin that roam the streets nowadays and kill people for no apparent reason

Something, im not sure what, made me think youd reply.

Most of the people whod want their kids to be named after famous gangsters are usually wannabee gangstas, and most of them would be what most people would call chavs. (not me, most overused term ever)

Not many normal folk would be so in to gangersters theyd want to name their kids after them for no reason barring they think its cool.

Exceptions to every rule, but its simple fact that thats gonna be the majority. Suprised Ginges kids arnt called it

mate my little one is a VERY important thing to me, we chose a name that we both agreed on and both thought was " pretty" with a bit of personal tounge in cheek attatched

im FAR from a wannabe gangster mate, i work at the moment 50 hours a week,,, no REAL crim would work half that !

best way i would discribe me is a gypsy with a house i guess

i DID think about names like that,,,,, but nikki wouldnt have it pmsl

Elise was the ONLY name we both agreed on though,,,,, she wanted names like jessica and chardonay type names,,,,,,, though i liked chardonay

its the only time me and the missus have agreed on anything straight away and felt right hence we never looked at another name,,,,,,, infact we was hoping for a boy as we had such a issue with choosing a girls name !!!!

Maybe you should have callen her Exige. A mate of mine that does lumpier stuff has just taken a 57 plate in p/ex and I have to admit it's pretty awesome! Plus they have a proper engine in now instead of the poxy K series.

And yes, getting in and out of Elises is better for smaller people or those that don't wish to crawl out on their hands and lose any shred of dignity.
