"Are we even allowed to say "Christian Name" in todays backward society? "

Christians have Christian names, people who aren't Christian, such as myself, have first names or fore-names.

If anything is backward it's the assumption that non-Christians have a Christian name.

I was given four first names. I've used two of them over the years. Technically they are all Christian names because I was christened with them and they are all names of Christian saints albeit minor ones.

I have Christian name that I heartily dislike - I won’t even publish my real name here. I don’t know what my parents were thinking of. So I call myself Paul: that’s quite Christian I think.

Considering what I’m going through I think it’s safe to say that I don’t like my given name. Soon it will be my deadname

Okay it is one of the 4 names I got lumbered with though I have rarely used it other than on legal documents. I don't mind it though.

Really only my close family use my first name, my mates use my surname as a nickname.

I'm fine with mine, other than having to emphasise to spell it with a v and not pH!😏

Parents gave me unremarkable and boring Christian names, but they did fuck-all about the comedy surname, which I often thought about changing when I was at school. Children can be so cruel.

It's a dated phrase. Given name or first name are generally used now. Considering most people in the UK aren't even christian why would you use it

i was watching "Mutiny On The Bounty" the other night. (The Anthony Hopkins - Mel Gibson one.)

Fletcher Christian had "Christian" as his surname. Apparently, there are lots of Christians on Pitcairn Island now.

I wonder if many of them have "Christian" as their first names? Or middle names? And would the term "Christian" be used to distinguish one of them from an atheist?

eg: Christian Christian Christian Christian.

Bit like Major Major Major Major in Catch-22.
