_{WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK OF RELGIOUS NAMES?}

Em. . . could we type our responses in lower case, or all names in upper case??

Lol, just kidding ya. Anyhow, religious names are cool, I think. No offences meant; but na until I step outside naija before I begin hear names like Mr Cook, Mr Graves, Miss Rider, and Mr Bugg - all good names, though.

My traditional name has religious connotations as well. I don't use it often (unless when I wan start trouble for anybody wey no dey hear word!)

In all, names tell some important story behind them; and I'm one for religious names if they tell good stories.
