      Seriously, why choose a Greek name for a government institution?? We were still joking about some posh French names for the JC months ago. The leaders might have taken a leaf from those suggestions. :faint:

        Omg, why choose this name? Most of the people alr started to laugh and make fun with the name . Is it possible to rename the sch again by giving a few names for these three sch students to vote? I feel that we should trust and respecting them to choose the name for themselves.


        Ya lor, why not just give it a simple name that makes the kids sound smart too. Like Raffles or Hwa Chong, so easy to pronounce, also very 威风 you know

        :rotflmao:

        I checked your profile - student.

        Just curious, how old are you?

            GreenBird:


            The name sounds girly, do not see how Catholic High boys are involved
            Besides, if u break up the 3 sound syllabus, the last 2 sound syllabus ... Sound like nonya food, or nonya ladies.
            Whether food related or nonya Persnakan girls involved (perhaps more apt for SCGS girls), the name of this JC sounds ... Feminine

            When you say aloud this name Eunonia : do you feel associated or related to St Nick or Catholic High strong missionary heritage background ?
            Zero !

            If can't compromise with scgs girls, the sng and chs pupils can tell them : you nonya, we aren't.\"

            Wasn't pleased with the name too. It sounds too nonya or like in a street road in Eunos.
            Given both SNG and CH are SAP schs except for SCGS, wouldn't it be simple to name as ''SAP JC\" instead.

              Could have been worse. Like SingaporeChineseCatholicNicholas JC. Or BeautifulAndSoundMind JC.


              Think positive. 😉

                  The more obscure the name/language, the more atas it is mah :rofl:
                  Now that French speakers so 俗, maybe MOE thought Greek will raise the atas quotient.
