I didn't know my great uncles name until like a year ago because I only knew his nick name :mjlol:


Heard somebody call him eglond and I was like :gucci::scust::mjlol: all at the same time
i know the feeling. jamaicans and their "pet names". when my uncle died i didn't learn his real name until i saw it in the program. :gucci: i only knew that man by his pet name. that's what everyone called him from the day i was born and that's all i knew.

Jamaicans stay having Last Name sounding first names :russ:
That applies to pretty much every culture :what:

In America most last names are first names that are old English firsr name. Hell you still use Williams (as in William plural). Clinton is typically a first name in the UK. We all know about Joseph and James and Jordan and Brandon and Anderson and Wade bring first names. I can go on and on.
Oh... and Jackson is a first name :jawalrus:


In French it's the same. Bertrand, Elie, Rémy Sylvain, Frédéric, Joséphine, are all first names that are now used as last name even tho they still get used as first names.
