believe it or not, this is one of the most popular names in greece... tee hee But why is it that when the greeks move over to Scotland (or maybe the rest of the UK) they adopt 'common british' names like George. I knew three george the greek's at Uni, and their Greeks names weren't similar. Any Greek listees know why.
~darling ...who laughed laughed laughed at the list nonetheless...
ps: where exactly is that uni?
That Uni is approx. ten minutes from my family home, seven miles west of Edinburgh. It has a rubbish Students Union, who give out free beer-t-shirts, for a laugh. Ha ha. It's nice to see so much participation in the list these days after a reasonbly long quiet spell. Anybody know if I can get V-Twin's single in Ireland? One of the band lives in my friends old flat and he is lovely. ( sorry unnecessary 'well I know...' comment there, please excuse me). I also think that 'seeing other people' is great song. Not as good as 'The stars of track and field' my recent fave. As far as list crushes go, I'm not telling anyone, cause you never know we may meet up one day, somewhere unexpected and it would be shite if they knew I fancied them cause I would get all embarrassed and not be able to speak for hours. OK? Take care all. I hope you are having nice days all over the world. love Claire. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

probably cause they're embarrassed by their greek name and don't want people to mispronounce it....AND if they're truly getting acculturated into english/scottish culture they are probably really excited (cause they all adore the english so much...hehehe) and when they learn english in school they learn that giorgos=george and that's just how it works in english speaking countries...so...yeah :)ARE there any greek listees on here? i would LOVE to practice my greek...
