As if to prove a celeb baby names point! For Chrizz sakes...

As if to prove my point about stupid names and celebs…well quasi famous athletes in this case but I am sure Hestrie is very well known in her dorp...

This is from news24 today – take a read - unbelievable!

Take the names Suzette and Christiaan. Combine them and you'll get the name of a baby daughter called Chrizette.
This is what the daughter of singer Jurie Els and South Africa's high jump queen, Hestrie Cloete, will be called.
An excited Cloete said: "Jurie's first name is Christiaan and my second name is Suzette. I combined the names and our daughter will be called Chrizette.
"We haven't heard this name before. We'll have to see if she's going to be the only one in South Africa with this name."

Now firstly when your name is already Hestrie you have to know something about been kicked before you have started to walk…so why oh why pass the mantle of shitdom down to your very own offspring – surely being born with original sin is enough!

Secondly and this gets my goat – her husband Jurie Els prefers to be called Jurie rather than his real name Christiaan…what is with that? Surely its an obvious choice??...I can understand if your first name is Pratt and your second is Billy you will choose the first but….????

And thirdly, Hestrie you are completely right – little Chrizette (I cringe writing that) will be the only one with that name...for a very long time to come FOR F-ING OBVIOUS REASONS!!!!!

CHRIZETE??...how do you shorten that?...I can only imagine the bed side manner in the nursery of the Cloete’s home:

“Ah little Crizzie (cringe again) “…tickle under chin, burp, burp….

“Ag nee – klein Crizzjie needs a nappy change…sis crizz…”

Please Jurie and Hestrie if not for your own sake then for little Crizzzzesessss (where the F do you put the apostrophe??) - please re think!

Just don’t reverse it and make it your first name and Juries second (assuming Jurie is it?)…because then it will be Hest-rie and you of all people have to know how that feels…
