I'm partial to Helmut. It's a pretty badass name.
Juan is the 5th in the male total, but it has become less common than that amongst newborns
>Italy: Mario
It hasn't been used in like 50 years
The big popular name in Sweden is William actually
it's pretty pleb t bh
All Nigels are around 50 years old
I don't know any Svens. Most common is William, Johan and Filip
>Nigel
type of nigga to wear a waistcoat, never met one irl
Hey! My grandpa was named Pierre you nigger.
Hans is a dead name, Julian, Yannick, Mohammed and Leon are very common in Germany
Pierre feels a little bit old, buy i know of a few
Ivan's pretty common.
We don't have a dominant name, but a plethora of common, that's one of them, somewhere in top 10 I guess
Hans and Helmut are virtually extinct.
New German names are probably Noah, Jonas etc. or something other. I know a surprising number of Friedrichs however.
What about Australia and Bruce?
Hans is a name for old people. There are acutally a lot of people named Hans in their 50s/60s. Not very common among younger people. I only know one young guy named Hans and it feels kinda goofy.
>Mexico: Pablo
We have more Juan here
My first name is Hans. First generation immigrant, we wuz barons and shiet.
That's too bad. German names are great.
Only one Ivan of my age among my acquaintances, it seems kinda old-fashioned. Everyone is Alexander or Sergey these days
>tfw my name is Pablo
Still not a very popular name, though.
Mehmet is a pretty common name here but it's dying out because people are naming their children retarded shit like Can
Nobody has those names that people push on us here
Common names are Lucas, William, Filip, Jonathan, Marcus, etc
Not Muhammad but Mehmet. Which is basically Turkish version of Muhammad anyway so it's true
>Noah, Jonas
>Jewish names
YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SHIT UP
Retards. Sven was a very popular name to give boys born in the 20's-40's something.
Ite common among old men. The names you listed are common among the very young.
What's wrong with Can?
>Nigel
I know only one guy named that and he's black lmao
My name is Luigi. No kidding. Four people have already called me that on Sup Forums
we need a stereotypical american-canadian name
i propose 'kyle'
Mate your Prime Minister is named David you really think you can make that joke ?
>Turk
get fucked
What's the problem Daniel, you mad ?
>Korea
Kim
Those are biblical names retard
Brit BTFO
>>France: Pierre
Quite common, I know 5 or 6 Pierres
What about Jacque?
Jacques isn't very popular anymore, I've only seen old people with this name.
>'Kyle' as stereotypical USA
Seconded.
For NZ I put forth "Ben" seems like a super common name, plus you get to make fun of our accent at the same time. Doesn't have any stereotype connotations tho..
such a shame, Jacques sounds like such a badass name.
Pierre on the other hand, sounds like some fat and short nerds name with those bottlecap glasses and and suspenders.
Fuck pierre, what a fag
Keep in mind Jacques doesn't sound like Jack though.
t. luigi sarducci boipucci
bin
perfectly describes your country
dictionary.com
does it sound like this?
Or "Kevin"
Hell its 2016 lets go with "zayden"
jaw kwez
>dictionary.com
Yes, I just wanted to be sure that you didn't think the J sounded like "dj", as it does in Jack.
>zayden
holy shit yes
Confirmed then
t. Zayden
yes
correct me if I'm wrong, but that "j" sound in Jacques (like the ж/ž in Slavic languages) is also 'j' in Turkish is it not?
Nigel isn't that common. Something like Liam or Oliver would be more accurate.
yes it does.
the reason for that is that we got the letter ''j'' from the french, since most modern turkish has french words in it, it makes the transition easier
Literally not one person under the age of 40 named nigel in the whole country
Ireland should definitely be Patrick/paddy
it sounds anime (its pronounced chan)
>tfw your name is berke-chan
must feel bad
Turks got the "j" from the Persians long before they even met the French
literally never met a seamus. hear its popular in ulster though
shaun/séan is extrenely popular however.
Shitpostistan: Jim
im quite partial to hunter myself
oh sorry, i just heard it was from the french.
but thanks
>that pic
absolutely devilish
do people really name their children gun names like deagle over there or is it just a meme that hillbilly's use?
paddy is what you call an average irishman
seamus is the stereotypical name
its a meme afaik. but its a dank one nonetheless.
check em
How many fucking times: If you speak to a young German and try to use Hans as a common name you will fail. That name is ancient and you will only make yourself look silly. Use the following:
Andreas
Sven
Thorsten
Anna-Sophie
Finn
Julia
And all the other biblical names
It's Hank. Hank is the meme American name.
Never known anyone called Bruce. Or Jim.
My father often has an Italian over at work, where I work too in the summers, from a client company. His name is Mario and he even talks like the video game character.
>Hello, I'm-a di Mario, I 'av-e come to-e evalua-te di qualiti of di paper
And then everyone has to hold their laughs. Which is sad because he seems like an actual nice guy
Kevin is a low class name here. It goes hand in hand with David (pronounced the English way) and Chantal. We even have Justin here.
>Portugal: Joaquim
>Brasil: João
for spain is more like manolo, paco or aitor
>Shitpostistan
I read it as Sebastian and almost shit my pants
This desu
Always thought it was funny how American first names are seen as lower class. I suppose it was a knee-jerk reaction of Protest by former commies (Eastern Germans) towards Russia.
So what's used now puglio?
I do not know a single Nigel in real life.
I've never personally known a Mario who had less than 50 years. The most common name is probably Andrea or Alessandro
>Finn
>Israel: Schlomo
Super old name and is used mostly as a joke.
I've heard of a person called Schlomo Schlomo though. But from many many years ago.
>Germany: Hans
>not Muhammad
wtf?
