This guy needs a good nickname at least!

I believe the tradition (well, maybe not exactly a tradition) is to name the skull after whatever rock-n-roll song was playing on the radio when they found it. Hence, Lucy, the australopithecus baby, named after "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds."

I'm waiting for a Monkees fan to discover the fossil "Aunty Griselda".
