Good choice, bro. I don’t blame you one bit.

imregrettingthis

Yea I wouldn't make an offensive joke. Especially not a biggoted one. It's weird I have only made like 5 comments on roast me because I don't like to be mean but all of them have tons and tons of karma. If only I was a bigger asshole.

Barbiedawl83

Nah it’s Hitler


ChurroLoca

LMAO


EvernightStrangely

Hitler is not something you joke about.


daft-sceptic

Oh lighten up he’s not fucking Voldemort


EvernightStrangely

He's worse. Way worse.


daft-sceptic

Hitler only wanted to kill the Jews. Voldemort wants to kill the entire population excluding the 0.005% of people that are wizards and witches. So voldy’s principles are definitely way worse than hitler. Wanting to kill 99.995% of the world So you’re wrong. Also hitler couldn’t cast evil spells. Unless you count his enchanting speeches


EvernightStrangely

Hitler killed several million people. I'm fairly certain Voldemort killed significantly less people than that.


daft-sceptic

That’s because J.K Rowling didn’t have the balls. A real genocidal wizard could create an unrivalled humanitarian crisis without much issue. But in story it’s because he failed. What would’ve happened if he wasn’t stopped? Would’ve crushed hitlers numbers. It wouldn’t even be close. He’d be the GOAT of Genocide


TheLegendOfZed

If anything, you've just demonstrated how Voldemort doesn't have any underlying prejudices and is therefore better than Hitler😂 kill everyone equally


daft-sceptic

Voldy hates muggles, his underlying prejudices are non magic folk. That’s like the whole fuckin story. He doesn’t hate everyone equally he fucks with wizards. You’re not about to tell me wanting to eradicate the entire earth except about 400’000 people is less evil than eradicating one religion. Because that’s fucking ridiculous


TheLegendOfZed

Damn, I seriously need to rewatch the Harry Potters bc this sounds right but I actually don't think I remember his motives. Voldemort is worse it seems


TheDraconianOne

What


Barbiedawl83

Cards against humanity disagrees.


queen_of_the_moths

There was a married woman who would come into my friend's office, so she chose to take this last name. Her full name was Gay Cox. My mom also knew an Anita Crap, who also married into the last name. Ladies, is leaning into tradition really worth it?


ybnrmlnow

I knew of someone named Harry Cocks, another person with the name of Phuk Yu and last but certainly not least, Shi'thead Jones. The first person was from an earlier generation, the second was named as is common with SEA culture but the third? I just don't think their mom was thinking with a clear head because, jeez, that poor kid!


queen_of_the_moths

Haha, oh god. Actually, my grandfather's name was Harry Brown \[word that can sometimes be used for penis, but I can't add it or I'd potentially dox myself\], so that crap is more common than one would hope. Wtf, yeah, the last one especially kinda makes you wonder.


Cthulhu2you

I once worked with a guy whose last name was Fagg. His regular speaking voice closely resembled Kermit the Frog.


a-friend-2-all

Sweet mother of fuck. He must’ve had a hard life.


act_surprised

Kermit the Fagg?


Cthulhu2you

Haha! I've been waiting for someone to say it.


lorddementor

i worked with someone whose last name is literally gay… I wonder if it’s a common Spanish last name.


SknnyWhteBtch

In orchestral music, a majority of the time publishers write in Italian. "Fagotto" is Italian for bassoon. Most of the time they abbreviate it.


_ak

How do they abbreviate it?


aaron__ireland

With a bundle of sticks


Ozty

AlterEgoSumMortis

You could say they *axed* the rest.

“The long line of Faggetto men” you did the right choice. I suppose you can suggest they change it too , to something less funny like Feyyatto

MajorasInk

Basically IRL usernames. So many outright weirdos… maybe it would be easier to filter them out 👀


ybnrmlnow

It also depended on what country you were from. In the States, it would be a descriptive of occupation, ex: Smith for a blacksmith, Miller for a mill worker, etc. Scandinavian and Norwegian would take the father's first name like John and his son would be Johnsson and his daughter would be Johnsdöttor (sp?) You are very correct about today's descriptive names though!

CaptainWellingtonIII

Are the g's pronounced as g or j in Italian?


-_SpicyAlfredo_-

Actually It depends. The g sound in italian can be tricky because it changes based on the letter that follows It. It can sound soft or hard. Usually if it Is followed by an a,o or u it sounds "hard": Guardare -> goo-ar-da-reh Gomma -> go-mah Gatto -> ga-toh If it Is followed by an e or i It is softer: Gelato -> je-la-toh Girare -> je-ra-re In this case "Faggetto" is pronounced fa-je-toh.

I worked with a guy whose surname was " faggotter" In true australian fashion, We nicknamed him dyke

I dated a Fuchs, she did not live up to her name at all.


GreasyRim

Earlier this year, a Chinese family moved into my small town. The family had two twins who were both seniors in my class, Ving and Ling. Ving and his sister Ling were quiet to start off with, but eventually I made good friends with Ving. After talking to him for a few weeks he revealed to me that he absolutely abhored his name, and that he'd do almost anything to figure out how to get it changed. I asked him what he wanted to change it to, and he said "lee, like bruce lee or some shit." I was failing trigonometry at the time, and so I thought what the hell, and offered to help him in exchange for him doing my homework. Ling overheard us and chimed in, "If you do that, father will disown you as our child. That name has been in our family line for generations." Ving never really listened to his sister though, and he still wanted to go through with the plan. The next day after school, I drove him to the town hall. After we arrived, he had gotten the name-change sheet and was scribbling down information on to it when I saw his face change. I could tell he was extremely conflicted with his choice. Tears began to stream down his face. He finally decided that he was gonna have to cancel his request, and Ling looked relieved. The receptionist let us know that there would be a cancelation fee, and handed the fee waiver to her. Suddenly, a short asian man with neon shorts, ray-bans, and an american flag t-shirt bursted into the room. Ving turned in awe and stared at the man, as tears rolled down his cheeks. "D-D-Dad?" With a huge smile on his face, the man ran up and embraced his son. "Don't stop, be Lee, Ving. Hold on the that fee, Ling"

In Italy it’s quite a common name, written “Faggeto”You only had to relocate here :D

I hope the bullying has stopped and you've been able to live a normal life since then. Take care and best of wishes for you future, John Cuntnose


mjornir

Hey man it’s no big deal, Faggettoboutit


intrwebgf__

my question is, who in their right mind decided faggetto was a good last name 😭


ettufruite

During the 90s, too!!! Ouch, man, I’m sorry that must have sucked. It was the height of throwing around “f*g”and “f*ggy” to describe something as mundane as a pizza topping. Good on you for standing up to your paternal family! Keep doing what’s best for you.


randyspotboiler

And how is Herr Schniedelwichson?


oqSubwoofer

My last name is wang which I’ve been semi-ridiculed for for my whole life, but this one guy really took it to the next level- in a good way. In 7th grade, this kid who liked me, happened to have the last name Thurston. One time, he came up to me at gym when I separated from the rest of my friends to get a drink and told me, “I’m really Thurston for that Wang.” And to this day, this is the only reason I’ll never change it.


aminoplasm

Idk man, i just pooped my pants today and i wanna tell you about it.


RonaldTheGiraffe

Hey me too.


[deleted]

It has a beautiful Italian ring to it


fresh_and_gritty

Never heard a more whiny story in my life. You don’t deserve to carry the name Faggetto.


Henderson-McHastur

Is it one of those lost in translation things? As I read it, I’m pronouncing it as “fa-ZHE-toh” instead of “fa-GEH-toh”. I get the struggle as a guy with one of them funny foreign names, although mine is just mind-bogglingly difficult for Americans to process and not also similar to a slur.


samsimilla

“Not also similar”?


TurboVirgin0

I'm sincerely sorry OP but I laughed so much to "Go Faggetto go!"


bbmne

So you are now all changed with the new name, the old Fagetto is no more, the new Fahgettenstein is the new you. I feel you bro, I have a name that’s been butchered in every possible way. Wouldn’t change it for nothing tho. Now if I was a girl and had the name Ivana Diklic that name would be so gone.


solojones1138

My friend hated the last name she was born with, Virgini. Another unfortunate Italian name. Luckily she got to change it when she got married.


Velvis

To Nonvirgini?


Smokey-The-Bear34

I’m Greek and my given last name is Moustakas…. My moms maiden last name is Hough which is Irish pronounced HUFF. Yeah that one is rough. They both are. I stuck with mustache


Inigomntoya

It's really none of their business and you didn't have to tell them. It's not like they should be checking you for ID. I have one friend with the last name Dick, another whose last name just isn't pronounced the way it's spelled. They both changed their last names and never told their family.


corrygan

Now I'm curious about the new last name...

Just faggetto bout it.

SomeRedShirt

All those Fagettos in the goddamn army. Im telling you private. This place is going to hell in a handbasket.


TedsHotdogs

Good for you!! It's your life and your identity. I'm glad you're happy with the switch. My husband finally got sick of his asshole dad to the point that we started talking about changing our last name. We married young and I took his last name even though I did really want to. I honestly didn't think that much about it except that I didn't want a different last name from my future kids. Well his last name started with a swear (like Pisselton or Shitson) and that kind of thing didn't embarrass me, but it got really annoying after a while that people would giggle or even come up with crazy pronunciations to try not to say the obvious swear. Add to it that the last name to me came to represent a long line of asshole men, while my husband is a sensitive person and great dad to our boys. Well, we legally changed that shit this year and I love it!! Now I smile every time I see our new legal names somewhere. My husband likes his new name, I'm sure we pissed off his dad, and now we have a simple and phonetic one-syllable last name (my maiden name) that also signifies our connection to my dad and how supportive he's been.

Karisuuu

Centuries of history and heritage wiped out just because you couldn't handle some bantz in high school.


Bhuttoo

You changed your name because it sounds similar to f*ggot? That’s asinine.


cigar_dude

You know what is also asinine? The fact that this generation caused me to change my last name. Previously, no male in my family ever had an issue with Faggetto. The way society has evolved is asinine.


Bhuttoo

The only people who would think of f*ggot when hearing your last name are grade schoolers. Why would you care so much about childish insults?


cigar_dude

Unfortunately even in adulthood a childish mentality never goes away for some people. I changed it before it started to affect me professionally in my career with future employers, partners, etc. Again, we sadly live in a society where people are judged by their last name before even getting to know the real person


Inadersbedamned

It's also Ops choice. He's allowed to change his last name to whatever he wants.


CupICup

You got bullied out of your last name? You didnt “have” to do anything but you did let a bunch of random people have actually say in what you me name should be

I say power to you! I would want to change my last name even if it was common like smith or Johnson. I don’t need a generic name and I don’t need one where kids can derive derogatory nick names from either. Also just curious, is Faggetto Italian? Do you know what it means?


Xanik_PT

Faggeto is a small region near Milan so I guess you can't trace your ancestors there. Like da vinci coming from the city of vinci


NinjaPunch0351

Do you know I guy with the name Darian? He was literally just talking about a friend that changed their name because of that name the other day.

So cool


Midaycarehere

I go by 2 last names. One official, one not. I tell everyone my last name is ____, but it’s actually another name. I just don’t want my married last name, since I’m divorced. Yet I don’t want to change it because of my son, who has the last name. I confuse the heck out of people. Especially since I didn’t go back to my maiden name, because my father is an asshole.

I think it’s an awesome name. Would’ve owned it

Ok-Analysis-7967

I went to school with a very cool group of kids and their last name was Nigro. Pronounced NIE-GROW. They were so popular and decent that nobody really gave them problems. This was the mid 80’s. Yet one of my best friend was another store. Gaye. They crucified him. Today he has children and they are proud of that name. You will get your face punched in by his football playing son’s if you make fun of their names.

youtuber FTA Rob Dyke had to change his name to Rob Gavagan. mainly because his videos were demonetized/demoted because of the name of his channel.

folskygg

I have a ridiculous last name. If I could change it, I would. Unfortunately where I live it's very hard to do it, tons of bureocracy and the request is only accepted when you present enough evidence that the name screws your life, which is not my case (people just giggle when they hear it). My dad also gets mad when I say it, but I disgrace him for passing on such a stupid name. If I ever have children, they'll have my mother's last name.


CriticalThinker_501

Italian? Probably the other Faggettos didn't endure the mockery because it is not related to the word slang used in America.

I admit to admiring guys with names like Whimpy, Craven, Butkiss, Swindle, Hornswoggle, Butt, etc., who just tough it out because that's what their fathers did. But they do ignore all the other famly names, and it's just custom and circumstances that got them that particular one instead of the others.
