Is Natalie a emo name?

Alrighty....First, to answer your question, yes, it can be an emo name. But being 'emo' isnt at ALLL depending on your name. And secondly, what does it matter? Being emo is a fashion choice, and if you were to make that fashion choice, i highly doubt anybody would pay attention to whether your name is Natalie or not.


Is it at all BAD to say emo is it a cuss word at all?

Emo is not a cuss word at all; a lot of people just don't like emo kids, because they think they are freaks, when they only hate them for being different.


Definition of emo?

Emo is a slang term for "emotional". Troubled teens with social, mental, and particularly emotional problems would be the true definition of 'emo'. However, in our modern culture, emo seems to have become a style. Example: "Look at that hot emo guy." Now, 'that guy' probably does not have emotional problems. He just has black hair, wears skinny jeans, and wears eyeliner. 'Scene' is a more appropriate term to describe the style, whereas "emo'' should probably be left to describe those with actual problems. "Goths" and "Punks" are other similar steriotypes. And no, not all emos are cutters. I personally belive steriotypes are pointless, and people should just be themselves; individuals. But the world insists on labeling those different than they are...I digress.


When does emo word stared?

I think your question is when did the word emo begin being used? In the book "Everybody Hurts: An Essential Guide To Emo Culture" The author says the first time the word was used was in 1997. Any answers about "emo" history or culture, etc. can be answered in this book, not to mention its HILARIOUS! Actually in an episode of MASH, BJ used the word emo to describe Hawkeye. He called him Captain Emo when Hawkeye was depressed over a letter he had received. So the word emo had been used much earlier then first thought.

Am I still EMO if I never kissed a boy and am not willing to do so?

Kissing a boy has nothing to do with being EMO or not. If you wish to be EMO, then you are EMO. If you wish to not be EMO, then you are not EMO. A fashion does not define who you are. Be who you wish to be. Kissing boys is not a requirement.
