George FilesThe truth, one post at a time

It's a proper noun

Why yes it is, but that doesn't mean you can have your way with my damn name. It's not even a hard name, it's an easy name, a nice name, it has but two syllables, and four if you count the second name. And yes, that second name is mine too. No, you can't make the George a G., write my name "Roshan G." and then call the G an initial. That's not even fair to the damn G., you put it at the end of the name and you call it an initial. Call it a final if you wish.

Stop with this propa propaganda, a name's a name, it isn't just that set of letters there, it's a sound, and mine is like that unheard melody you've all been told about, except it's heard. Actually, you know what, I forgive you all. Really I do, because I don't really care how you pronounce it, so long as you do. Because I love you all, you know. Deep down inside, I do.

I sympathize with you, George. You know, some people go around with ridiculous names like Marc Z. It puts one to sleep.

Ha ha, funny. But it's a cool name, actually.

I don't get it.. Why won't you want a "ji" to be affixed to the end of your name? so some people write 'ji' as 'g'! You never hear me complain!!

Yes, but then it isn't an initial by any stretch of imagination, is it?
