"you're a big girl, you need a big name!"

[Soulstealer]

What exactly qualifies as a "big girl" name? Helga the skull smasher?

I'm taking that, I may only be 5' but I covet that name.

[chainedbarista]

hmm, i'm 5'3", and i also like the 'helga the skullsmasher' name; would have come in handy for those coffee slinging days.

Helga The Skull Smasher

How 'bout "Bertha The Castrator"?

Mentally or physically, it doesn't really matter.

[Voldine]

Elizabeth the Emasculator.

[NightWatch]

Or maybe just Bruce... Bruce the Brute (yeah, I know we're going with girl names, that's the point)

On a similar note, I also dislike it when people make assumptions about what nickname you may or may not use. Although my name isn't Elizabeth, I'll use it as an example. If my name tag says Elizabeth and even my fellow associates and managers call me Elizabeth, it's a good bet that it's both my given name and the name I go by. Do not assume that you, a complete stranger, may upon meeting me call me Beth or Lizzie. That is not my name, so stop it.

But...yeah. Regardless of whether this idiot realized his error or not, using a joking tone to veil an insult is pretty aggravating. Considering I'm pretty self-conscious about my weight, it's pretty offensive as well.

Him: You're a big girl, you need a big name...and a big man!"

You're a rude man, you need a rude name,... how about Mr Asshole?

[QASlave]

My wife is 5'10". She likes to put on the 3 inch heels so she is taller than I am. (I'm 6'0".)

[Automan Empire]

Good answer, Mister!

Sounds like the man is just a boor. Don't let him get you down.

And for more counter-boor measures, let me just say, if I came through your lane, I'd be silently admiring you, but too polite to open my mouth about it. However, if I overheard the guy, I would tell him off for you, then proceed to lay it on kinda thick. I a full size woman!
