“And yet do you want a name like John or Joe that millions of others have? How about being open minded for a change?”++++There is a broad middle ground between common names and dumb, weird names like “Moon Unit” or “Unique”—how about Javan, Mel, Amandus, Balthazar, Celestine?
I changed my fantasy Medieval name to Beatrice. In my day (and my children’s) we were usually given some name passed down in the family and my first choices for a boy or girl also took into consideration a monogram which would be symetrical. This toon is funnier than James’ “Ninja worms” on today’s strip but that was good because Celene deserves whatever they give her!
