"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Tuxes for everyone!

He would totally run on that platform. And I'm sure he could get the endorsement of Marlene Dietrich and Fred Astaire and Sean Connery.

I like Dana, too. I think Dana Katherine Scully is my association (sigh...).

I associate "Adele" with Adele Astaire, Fred's sister and first dance partner.

My great-grandmother's name was Alida, which I think is beautiful and a name that should be brought back to popularity.

JZ's cousin just had a baby, and used "Emmett" as the middle name because she liked Emmett's name.

When my sister was 20, she was a bridesmaid at a high school friend's wedding. The ringbearer was named Kip, which happens to be my brother's name. When Kris pointed that out to the boy's mother, it turned out that her husband had been classmates with my brother and even though they weren't close, he still liked Kip's name well enough to use it for his son!

Ann, that's a ferret.

Unfortunately, I had an Emmett for a college roommate. He was kind of a jerk. No, he was a pretty complete jerk.

And I see Frederick continues to slide down the lists.

"Old-fashioned" sounding girls' names are very in right now, so a comeback for Susan wouldn't surprise me at all.

I'd lay odds against Virginia. Want unique? Give them my name.

I work with a Kip. Only one I have ever met.

Friends of mine are due in Feb and are having a boy. The guy said absolutely no biblical names, making naming the child difficult. They first settled on Lester (even after "the molester" was pointed out to them), and then switched to Harvey. So there is about to be a newborn Harvey. That just amuses the hell out of me. I know Harvey will be kick ass, though, so it won't matter.

Back in the late '50s/early '60s, there was a sportswriter for the Chicago Sun-Times whose first name was Kip, which is where my mom saw it and liked it enough to use it. There were issues (I think with my grandma, though I'm not sure about that) with the name being so short and seemingly informal, so Mom made his official name Kipley, shortened to Kip for everyday.

If he was a girl, the name was going to be Kimber Leigh, so she had a thing for unusual names. What can I say--she was only 21 when she had him!
