What's With The Name?
People ask me how I came up with the name Hottnikz. It's my on-line name, and have been posting comments under this name for years. They often ask am I really "hot" as far as looks goes. The name may sound like I think I'm the shit, but the reason I chose the name has nothing to do with vanity at all. It's actually a handle I stole from Method Man of the Wu-Tang Clan. Since my name is Nik, and Meth was one of my former play husbands, I thought the name was more befitting of me. It sounds better on a female anyway. I'll admit the name does grab attention, which is the point. Besides, the man has so many names he calls himself, I figured he could share one of them with his boo! Check him and Wu-Tang in the Flintstone inspired "Gravel Pit".
Yes music inspires people. It inspired my on-line personality, Hottnikz. With that being said, I bothers me to see people take things too far. Naming your child is serious business, not a game or something to do to get back at your ex. Don't be so selfish when naming your child, think about the years of ridicule that your child may have to deal with. Or think name profiling when it comes time for a job. There is a big difference between a ethnic name and something just plain ridiculous. Just peep the video below.
Namraun? Of all people, you name your son after Cam'ron! Funny shit! I feel sorry for the father and son.
I'm sure we all know some people who have jacked up names for their kids. Hell, my own name would have been jacked up had it not been for auntie bringing my mother her glasses. My mother cannot see without her glasses, and was looking in a name book for a name for yours truly and was looking under the boy names to name her first born girl. Thanks Auntie Neicey, for looking out for the cookout! Real talk, for a minute there my name was Nigel. I know my mom would never do that on purpose, but some people do. For example, I know someone who named her daughter Romeo. *blank stare* If you know some crazy names, please share them in the comments.
