Episode description

This week we’re playing the name game! Following on from our recent episode on surnames and nominative determinism, we’re now casting our eye over first names. What do they mean? What are their origins? Do they reflect your personality or does your personality change to suit your name? So whether you’re a Gyles, Dexter, George, Charity, Faith, or a Harper, join us in finding out what’s in a name… As usual we’ll be answering questions you’ve sent in via Twitter and email and Susie will be serving up her trio of words for the week. A Somethin’ Else production Susie’s trio: Ultracrepidarian - somebody who gives opinions on matters way above their knowledge Quidnunc - an inquisitive and gossipy person Kiddlywink - an old Cornish word for a pub or ale house If you’d like to get in touch with a question for Susie and Gyles for a future episode, mail purple@somethinelse.com.
