Let Me Help You Pick Your Son's Name

So last night as I was talking to Sylvia (SIEW WIAH), she inspired to me to do a very special post. That is to search through the World Cup name database and find names that are either unique or totally crap shit. She mentioned that Singaporeans have a tendency to mis-pronounce names especially hers, who's clearly French and therefore, let me make a guide for you as to which footballer's name you should use. Anyway since the garment (government) constantly ask us to do family planning etc. why not find a name for your future sons now!

• Friedrich (GER) - Shit defender. Very nice name.
• Schneider (GER) - I think some of you might know I have this name in mind for my...son already
• Schweinsteiger (GER) - It's a typical German name, and I reckon it's good, but your kid's primary school teacher might have some problem with that.
• Gerrard (ENG) - I think this name will be quite popular in the future, as Gerrard will go on to be a legendary player at Liverpool.
• Downing (ENG)
  
• Roque Santa Cruz (PAR) - A very exotic name which will get some attention from your kid's friend.
• Kenwyn Jones (T&T) - Kenwyn's a pretty English or Irish name and it sounds good.
• Wilhelmsson (SWE) - Siew-wiah's favourite!
• Saviola (ARG) - Most of you might know my old nickname that is Savio. Yea, got it from his name.
• Mathijson (HOL) - Hot name, I reckon. Pronounce 'Mer Tai Sen'
  
• Sneijder (HOL) - Same pronounciation as Schneider, but Singaporeans will have major problem pronouncing this. Shee-neej-der? 'J' in European languages are pronounced in an 'I' or a 'Y'.
• Oswaldo Sanchez (MEX) - Oswaldo is a fantastic name, really!
• Gerrardo Torrado (MEX)
• Nuno Valente (POR) - Portugese have brilliant names. Just look further.
• Paulo Ferreira (POR)
• Miguel (POR) - Not very exotic, but still sound nice.
  
• Caneira (POR)
• Hugo Viana (POR)
• Boa Morte (POR)
• Gianluca Zambrotta (ITA) - Ah, the Italians have good names as well.
• Cristian Zaccardo (ITA)
• Alessandro Del Piero (ITA) - Should be a popular name!
• Vincenzo Iaquinta (ITA) - I like the way it souds.
• DaMarcus Beasley (USA) - I always find this name very unique.
• P. Mastroeni (USA) - Sounds...Argentinian?
• M. Jankulovski (CZE)
• Marco Bresciano (AUS)
• Harry Kewell (AUS) - Brilliant name. Sounds abit soft, but man enough. HAHA
• Cicinho (BRA) - Chee Chee Neo?
• Florent Malouda (FRA)
• F. Ribery (FRA) - Fantastic name.
• D. Trezeguet (FRA) - Pronounced 'T-eh-ze-gay". Not Twezequack.
• P. Senderos (SUI)
• T. Barnetta (SUI)
• Andriy Shevchenko (UKR) - Nice.
• Any Spanish Player's Name - I'm serious. How about Casillas...or Torres...or even Salgado?

I'll cover some names you should never ever give your son, especially here in little sunny Singapore. Cheers!
