How about "Victimus Neglectus "?

these are the white, equally idiotic equivalents of black names like "treyshawn" etc.

Good Christ.  When will the Whiteys stop giving their kids dumb names that are better suited for D&D, or the family fuckin' dog?  I just want to barf every time I see a "Cody."  Or worse:  Occupation names, once just surnames, given to children as first names.  Usually, these are upper-middle-class families, and if they had any goddamn idea what the hell they were doing, they'd realize Grandma-ma would never have allowed a "Hunter" or a "Tanner" in the house, because they stink, don't you know, and the only time a "Tyler" would be allowed in would be to replace the fuckin' floor.  Gripes my ass.

Hmmm, how is this any different from the ethnic Celtic name I gave my son???  It's been passed down the family forever - does that make me presumptuous for giving him that name or does it make you a dickwad for blather on about subjects you lack the historical view of?

Since this is High-Street it's pretty clear that the Dickwaddiness trumps all.

This kid is named after everything her mom was on when the 9 dads broke her into the gang.

Like this is any different than me naming my kids Skywalker and Lando.

Welcome to TOPEKA!!!

Ummmm...I imagine your Celtic name is an actual Celtic name, not a mishmash of vaguely Celtic/Teutonic syllables common to the D&D/WoW set.  My girls have Russian names in homage to their heritage.  I thought it would also make it easy to fetch them in a crowd of kids, until they started ballet.

So they are sort of like the French?

[For the ole girl] very few cultures are the same as frogs.

Skywalker and Lando...I laughed out loud.  Thanks for that. Perfect Hollywood names for these parts. Fucking Malibu is out of control on the Codys and the Dakotas etc. The ironic thing is noone named Dakota would be caught dead anywhere near there.

I personally would love to see a kid named Fresno or Clovis.

Thanks.

I had considered Jack Horner (inserlastname) and Ron Jeramy (insertlastname) but the spouse wouldn't have it.

I wanted a girl so I could name her Barbarella but alas, tis not to be.

Well, of course, there's always Chico and Weed.

Weed. Love it. What about Temecula? ("Temecula! You stop that right now! You listen to Covina and put the chainsaw down!!")

Not your way.

I remember someone, upon hearing the name Temecula for the first time, replying "Sounds like an STD".

It is.  But it's unique enough that it's probably not a good idea to share it on the internets, him being only 12 and all.
