I just found out that my boyfriend's boss, Jes, is actually named Jester. He's a forty-something bloke. I think it's completely ridiculous, WDYT?

That's the assumption I'm making, yeah. Maybe they were high and though it was hilarious at the time?

That's the name of my friend's one-eyed cat!

Haha, yeah, I've known cats and horses named Jester before, but never a person!

Who looks at their baby and wants to name him, basically, joker or fool?

[rubytitania.livejournal.com]

Exactly! Maybe they thought he'd grow up with a great sense of humour...eh.

[arbus.livejournal.com]

ridiculous indeed.

[rubytitania.livejournal.com]

I just fail to see how they thought it was a good idea for a name!

I was thinking... maybe Chester?... lol
it is pretty funny though

[rubytitania.livejournal.com]

Heh, that would be a bit more sensible...

As far as noun names go, Jester isn't that bad-sounding. If it weren't for the meaning, I think I'd kinda dig it. At least he's not Clown or Goofball!

[metalmikey666.livejournal.com]

Hehe, that's a fair point...unfortunately the meaning is too silly for me to get past!

Oops, that was me signed in as my bf!

Yeah, and I mean at least his parents were intelligent enough to know what a jester was.

[rubytitania.livejournal.com]

As far as I know it's his given name, but I'm not sure.

You know I kind of like it. But I would never actually put it on a human being. I would name a cat Jester though.
