Wouldnt that make you think there are a million Kreders in the Netherlands, and half a million Dekkers?

Mike.
I mean, come on, look at his avatar
Well,i thought that's nickname.
No, it's just Mike 
And to be honest, my last name isn't Jensen anymore. I recently decided to save myself and the world some time when writing what used to be my full name - it was Mike Østergaard Kaltoft Jensen before, now it's just Mike Kaltoft |

How can you change your name, or drop it ?
I mean usually a girl can get married and use her hubby's surname (it also works the other way round, but rarely happens), or change it if it's something ridiculous and that you can argue it, but simply erase one part ? You can't do it here. At best you can probably choose to use a different one when you've got many (noble families, for example, they have countless first names, and dozens of family names).
Luckily life is more simple for randoms like me. |

My former teacher changed her name. Having "Führer" as family name it was understandable, though.

Since we're on the topic of names, the Top 10 of last names in Norway.
| 1 Hansen 54433 | | 2 Johansen 51136 | | 3 Olsen 50655 | | 4 Larsen 38510 | | 5 Andersen 37630 | | 6 Pedersen 35688 | | 7 Nilsen 35435 | | 8 Kristiansen 23910 | | 9 Jensen 23318 | | 10 Karlsen 21677 |
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

Sen? Does that mean son in English?
Can't find another explaination for every name ending on sen otherwise

Most common first name, 7th most common last name. Hooray I'm impossible to find on the internet (No, really, I am)

It is the equivalent to "-son names", but "sen" doesn't actually mean "son".
It's the same here in Sweden, but with "-sson". Luckily, I don't have a mainstream surname like that.

I have very strange name + more stranger surname.
Admir became from "Admire" (Latin) - which means same in english.
My family was acutally the one to first settle in this town,but we aren't even in Top1000 in Yuglosvenian surnames (since it is more Bosnian surname,but i live in Serbia). |

So I was siting in my living room, minding my own business when BAM, a pigeon crashes into my window. I see it outside and it looks really hurt, so I try to take it in, but it still has energy left to run away into the bushes. I decide to just put some food there, if it wants to recuperate a bit. Then I start calling around, because there is no organisation that helps wounded animals like they have in the Netherlands (found many sites but always sites from Netherlands).
Eventually I found a bird-care center. So I went for another try, spend half an hour trying to catch it, maneuvered in the bushes, put it safe in a box, rode 40 minutes to the care center, brought it in and rode back. What a long day, but the bird will live, so that's good news
Strangely enough, when I walked out of the bird care-center, there was a dead pigeon on the road. Looks like I attract it. |
