While some netizens do not seem impressed by the 'name game', others say they couldn’t find their name on the website.
A peculiar new viral trend has emerged recently courtesy of the notorious Urban Dictionary website in which social media users apparently use the street slang bible to discover new definitions of their names.
A number of netizens recently posted what they discovered after typing their names into the Urban Dictionary search box.
Some names have more than one definition, as 'Andrew', for example, was described on the website as “that guy in class that will make you laugh until you cry” and who “tries to impress everyone, and usually succeeds”, or simply as a “big boi”.

There were also those, however, who did not seem to be particularly impressed by the new fad.
