David, I'm totally calling you Sparky Franjo from now on.
Was Franjo pronounced Fran-ho, or did it rhyme with Banjo?
I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I think it's Apple Martin.
And all I can say is that clearly neither Gwyneth nor Nic Cage uses the Oath of Office test.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I dunno... I, Kal-El, promise to uphold the constitution blah blah truth justice and the American Way? It has a certain resonance. (not to mention a neato pair of spandex pajamas).

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

In *my* world, it's pronounced to rhyme with "banjo." Oh, yes.

My naming theory is that you should pick a name that would work if your child grows up to be the president or a major leaguer. This theory pretty much knocks out names like Apple, Bambi, Barbie, Kal-El and Moon Unit.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
For a lot of people it'd knock out ita too. But I'm okay with that. I'm more about a name I love, and if the putative kid doesn't love it, they're more than welcome to change it.

I could see a president ita. It's unusual without having unfortunate connotations. I think of Ginger as more problematic. I like my name, but most people associate it with Gilligan's Island or cocker spaniels.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I could see a president ita.
They'd probably have to pass a bill to get it capitalized correctly.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Or snaps! IJS.
As a Lisa, I understand dealing with a MILLION freakin' people sharing your name and someone not being able to find you by yelling out your name in public.
This problem is solved by my DH calling me by my maiden name pretty much mostly.
And yet, it's not swaying me from choosing a very popular girls' name for the new baby, either. I'm so contrary.
