Dating someone with the same name as your pet

Which one should change her name?

Robyn (human):
older
could get pissed off
harder to change a person’s name

Robin (bird):
known her longer
actually is a robin

Maybe I could call my bird by her robot name (Robinitron)?

Interestingly, they kind of look and act the same.

Show them both a BB gun and whom/whichever “flies” away the fastest get to keep their name.

i vote this as “most retarded thread of the year”. it’s right up there with how to make flat coke.

no offense, of course…i’ve had some qualifiers myself.

:slight_smile:

At least “make flat coke?” was funny.

Hell, I thought a funny name like “Mr. Bigglesworth” or “Fluffy” or “Wiskers” would be involved.

Robin and Robyn? Puuuuhhhhlllease.

You’ve got it all backwards! You’re supposed to date someone, break up with them, and then name your pet after THEM.

I think it’s funny that you named your robin, Robin. Why don’t you just call your girlfriend, Girlfriend.

Does anyone remember the movie Bounce with Gwyenth Paltrow and Ben Affleck? His name was Buddy and so was her dog’s name. Her kids wanted Ben’s character to change his name to Darth.

I had a girlfriend named Robin once.

Keep the bird.

Move to Australia and call your girlfriend Sheila.

My daughter’s father brought 2 cats (mother and daughter) into the relationship- Katie and LK (Little Katie). Katie had a really skinny rat-like tail and LK, despite the name, was a bit chunky. I started calling them ratty and fatty. It stuck.

my guess is the bird will be around longer than the girl - just not right to make the bird change its mane - I vote the GF must change her name
