Didn't see it in earlier posts, so...

In the great tradition of Frank Zappa:

Moon Unit.

[Darth Reagan]

There's always Soleil Moon.

[Physicist]

For a girl: Zilpha. (It's a family name on my dad's side.)

[SerpentDove]

HILLARY.
How many parents named their daughter that around 1992, and seriously REGRET it today?!

[AUsome Joy]

Tell them you are having twin girls and naming them Vicki and Icki. A school teacher said she had two girls named that and later found out that "Ichi" was pronounced with a long i, I-kee.

Bono

[Timesink]

Horace or Gladys, particularly if you pronounce the last syllable "ass".

Reminds me of that A&W root beer TV ad from a few years back where the young moron is in a job interview with the president of some company, and keeps repeating what a great asset he'd be to the Dumbass Corporation. Then the guys leans over across the desk and says "It's Dumas."

[Phantom Lord]

Everybody knows Dick Trickle is a NASCAR Driver

[Doomonyou]

And stay away from:

Sunshine

Butterfly

Princess

and anything outside the atmosphere of the Earth.

Thomas Ignacious Terwilliger

Just hope he won't have to initialize any documents until he's big enough to defend himself...

[TNJimbob]

My aunt's name is Virginia Rexine, so you could go with Rexine (Rex for short -- for a GIRL!!!). For a boy, how about Theodore Peter Terwilliger -- Teddy for short. Alliteration in names has always been a pet peeve of mine. Sounds too much like a car salesman!

[Sharie]

Just not Hillary.....or Bubba....or Roger.....or William Jefferson.......or Bill....anything else will be fine

[Calvin Locke]

There's always Picabo, or Sioban. Gramp's name was Ignatius.

Saw a Russian reference to Nastya.

Got a cousin Stanley.

Knew a Fiona, Iris, Genevieve, Veronica, Yuval, Bernice, Lilly, Tamara, Emile, Artemus.

[-YYZ-]

My cousin named her (male) child (about 5 now) McKenzie. McKenzie? What the heck kind of first name is that? Might as well have named him Diefenbaker.

Everybody knows Dick Trickle is a NASCAR Driver

Well, I answered the phone a few times when he called. He never told me he was famous! :)

[Exeter]

If he's a published author, please tell me the title of his book. I gotta have a copy of it for the name on the spine alone...

[Constitution Day]

I have a cousin named "Vic Vickers"!

I hate that alliteration too, but always wanted to ask him how he felt about it.
