User Comments about the name Gay


Comment left Apr 08, 2008: "Ew. Who in the hell would name their child after a sexual orientation?" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Apr 08, 2008: "This name has another meaning now so it's not a good name anymore. People I know can't deal with the word "gay" in schoolbooks as in meaning happy or joyful, so I think a child with that name wouldn't have the easiest life thanks to their name." (Report as inappropriate)
