Alright, this is a total vanity. I didn't post it under "Breaking News" so relax.
My mother and aunts have been pestering my wife and I about when we are going to have children. Lately, we have taken to coming up with the worst possible names for babies and telling them we are considering names first. Well, they get real upset with some of them and even get angry with us for even considering them.
My mother in law is coming down for Christmas and it is inevitable that when she, my mother, and my aunts get together they will gang up on us about having kids. So, what I need from my fellow FReepers is a good list of really bad baby names to suggest to them as names we are considering. You help and creativity is greatly appreciated.
Oh, the last name is Terwilliger if that helps at all.
Anything Aztec
My Uncle Earl knows somebody in the pharmacy business [the corner junkey].
Any of these Aztec names would make great names....
Got a head ache? Take extra strength Maxixcatzin
Got a mosquito bite? Take Iztahuatzin
Need an alternative to Preparation H? Use Chimalpopoca
Want a cocoa flavored laxative? Try our new Xoxopehualoc
Also, I have a great great (?) grandmother whose name was Elzira Apsilla Jowell. Sometimes when all available usernames are taken, I use Elzira Apsilla and I'm in. No competition!!
ex-ACTLY!!!

Fukui-san?
Anyway, the commentator really cracks my wife up the way he's always saying "Fukui-san! Fukui-san!"
You don't happen to work at a Wal*Mart in Daytona do you. I was in Wal*Mart last week and heard the word passed for a Latrina Somebody-or-Other to come to the service desk. It makes you wonder if her mother had ever heard of a latrine.
Several years ago I was talking with a NJ middle school teacher who had a kid named "Shy-Theed", spelled Sh*thead, in his class. The first day he pronounced it like it was written and had the mother of the boy get mad at *him* for embarrassing her son. Go figure!

Let try Throatwobblermango Terwilliger (Monty Python). Or Otto von Terwillinger. Boleslaw Terwilliger. Shaun O'Terwillinger. McDonald McTerwillger.
If you just put a little effort into it you can drive them nuts.(GR)
Did anyone ever see the SNL skit with Nicolas Cage? He is very sensitive about what to name his son--every suggestion that his wife makes get turned into something derogatory. The skit is here. It turns out that he is so sensitive cuz his parents named him “Asswipe”, which should be pronounced “Os-wee-pay”.
My paternal great-grandfather owned a coal barge line. Whenever he had a son, he named him after the last name of men who worked his boats to acknowledge their contributions. I have great Uncles named (first names, mind you):
Brown
Norton
Cantrell
Tell them you intend to employ that method.
Sting.
Skitch.
Curious George.
And incase there are any old time radio show fans here, especially Fibber McGee & Molly, how about Fibber. or Latrivia.
