    - Anything that ends in "-ediah." Jebediah, Zebediah, Adiahdiah... It's just gonna get them beat up in school.

    - John Wayne. Yes, The Duke was awesome, but every other lunatic with the John Wayne handle has gone on to be one real piece of work John Wayne Gacey, for example, was a child molester and serial killer.

    There is someone I know that named their son "Leather", which took considerable acting skills on my part to keep from making a face when I heard it the first time.

    ...Well, we're sure to offend someone, sooooooo what? I'm expecting our first grandson in August, and as much as we should keep our mouths shut, we just had to try to sway the kids away from a couple of their choices. Kids in school can be very cruel, and will twist offbeat names into something else. Both sides of the family have very German last names. My son's pick was Dominic. No, no, no. He'd be "Dumb-inic" "Dumb-Pri-k", etc. Daughter in law's choice was "Aden". I see "Gayden" in his future.
    ...One of our shower gifts was a baby name book with 100,000 names. I think they are now considering the ramifications of what a name can saddle a kid with. They're considering "Lowell", pronounced "Lole". That was the name of my dad's brother, who augered a P-38 into the ground in 1944.
    ...It seems that everyone wants a totally unique (weird) name, or the overused name of the year that every third kid born is getting. Jason, Mathew, Brittany, Carly, Jennifer, etc. are all good names, but are being overused to the point where a teacher calls on Brandon, and four hands go up.

    NO! Just was thinking of names like "Ben Dover" at work. Names that would be absolutely cruel to a kid.

    And can't leave John Wayne Bobbit out of the list either.

    Had a buddy with the last name of Poole, he named his kid Seth.

    There is a guy that lives in my area named Maddog Zoomzoom Moonchild.

    A black guy named Charles Spears....don't call him Chuck.

    Another nice young lady that was named Eneeda Toyin.

    There WAS a Gynocologist in Falls Church Virginia named Harry Beaver.

    People only usually ridicule my middle name. First time for Doug Wilson. A name passed down to me from some fine Men on my Dad's side of the family, and one I have passed to my Son, Doug II. I fully expect to see a "Doug III" in the future and I hope everyone who bears this proud name, reflects the standards set by his forebears.

    I have found that the actions of Men seldom reflect the weirdness of their names.

    Does it seem strange that the folks that make fun of my name, scrupulously conceal their own??

    No pride, I guess.

    DOUG WILSON

    Doug,

    Who makes fun of your name? "Doug" is a fairly common name...

    I mean, unless your full name is Doug Sucksalottadick Wilson.

    Other than that. Doug Wilson is not anything comedy-worthy.

    You and my brother.

    He so hated the name that he refused to name his son George.

    Thus ending sixteen generations of tradition in our family.

    Pity.
