For the love of whatever gods you honor, please, no Jayden or Aiden or any sort of stupid home-made names (anything involving apostrophes or a Q without a U). Also no normal names with fucked up spellings (Jennphr). For a girl no Crystal, Heather, Tiffany, or Brittany.
I have noticed that two things tend to screw people up in subtle ways ... dumb names and birthdays too close to holidays. Friend of mine's kind is named Krysta, born on Christmas Eve. She's doomed.

Except that the husband of BD#1, for the longest time, wanted to name the prospective baby boy. . . wait for it . . .
Falion! I had to exercise my semi-veto power on that one. (Valium? Phallus? Prince Valiant?) Fortunately, he kept getting girls . . . and has grown out of it for this one. Phew!

My mum had to fight my dad over my bro's name :P He wanted to call him Zebediah. I have no idea why. Mum wanted Simon.
he ended up a Martin [eta] I hated my name as a kid. 'Danielle' just sounded too round and clumsy to me. The fact that I also have two middle names didn;t help matters. Also, it was a rare name when i was growing up; hadn't become as common as it now is. Any unusual name is the kiss of death if you're being bullied. Now I rather like it ... the name, not the being bullied:P

Apparently they were so sure I was going to be a girl that they never even picked out any boy-names.
<singing>I'm a boy, I'm a boy, but my Mom won't admit it</thewho>
