Really, really hard." Spacecataz is delightful, even though I'm more of a Robot-Turkey-gal, myself. | | | 02-28-2005, 04:27 PM | #35 | | make a little birdhouse in yr soul Join Date: Dec 2001 Posts: 11,694 | She is undeserving of the accent aigu in her name, not that "Beyoncé" is a real name anyhow. | | | 02-28-2005, 04:44 PM | #36 | | Bachelor's of Accessories Join Date: Oct 2001 Posts: 13,730 | ^ I personally find "Beyonce" to be more redeeming than "Solange," in any case. | | | 02-28-2005, 07:24 PM | #37 | | Blue lips, blue veins . . .

They have a whole section devote to "afrocentric" names. Beyonce and Solange were both in there. As is LaShonte, and TyRonica.

When I was in France as an exhange student I knew a girl named Solange, and she certainly wasn't black. I'm not so sure about the name Beyoncé though. | | | 03-01-2005, 04:34 PM | #40 | | please don't scream in this dream Join Date: Aug 2004 Posts: 5,915 | oh wait you were talking about the Turkey in ATHF not the show, nevermind.

Of course, Beyonce sounds silly to me also. I'm curious now as to what the French name means, and whether it's very common. | | | 03-01-2005, 07:43 PM | #42 | | banned Join Date: Feb 2000 Posts: 12,874 | Quote: | Originally Posted by goat!

Interesting. I wonder if Beyonce is Latin for "innappropriately shaped and colored eyebrows." | | | 03-02-2005, 09:12 AM | #45 | | no dots magops Join Date: Oct 2002 Posts: 14,506 | Quote: | Originally Posted by goat!
