Westie Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I have recently moved, and moved in with my Girlfriend in East Dulwich. Already we have already begun to argue. This is not good! Normally we get along fine, but this issue is driving a wedge between our happy relationship. I need your help!What do you call a person from East Dulwich?Is it an East Dulwichian, an East Dulwichite, an East Dulwichonian, or even something else?

Ant Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 A Londoner. No need to get overly parochial after all.Though if you insisted, probably East Dulwicher.

damzel Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Pregnant (within 6 months of moving in usually). If that's not your plan Westie then be careful how you make up those arguments!

LuvPeckham Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 "Too poor for Clapham" maybe ?Only jokingI think honestly (and welcome to the neighbour hood) I would call anyone in ED "Lucky" to be in such a nice place.

Mick Mac Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 How about an "EDonian" or if you have moved on, an "Old EDonian". You might be able to refer to this on your cv and if you make an appropriate typo, could find yourself in line for a top job.PS: I'm new to this but why do people reply to Brendan as Brenda, I've seen that on a couple of posts, is it a nickname/in joke/typo?

Moos Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I did it as a genuine typo (while simultaneously thinking hey, I could put Brenda, no that's childish) - but I've never seen that thread before. What spite. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/4607-what-do-you-call-someone-from-east-dulwich/#findComment-148960 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendan Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Either way it?s a cheap laugh at my expense and every time I read it a little part of me dies. Do you ever wonder where I am on those days I don?t post? Crying in the stationary cupboard that?s where.

Moos Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Oh poppet, I'm so sorry. I feel awful after having read your post. Careful getting out of that cupboard now, one of the moving ones might knock you over.

Brendan Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Moos Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> Careful getting out of that cupboard now, one of> the moving ones might knock you over.I?m still a bit confused about why people refer to it as such to be honest. Granted it is always in the same place you left it but in my experience so are most cupboards. However when I started working here everyone else referred to it as stationary so who am I to argue?
