Not if you are a Sikh... [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I can imagine a son of mine at the first day of school. As the teacher asks the kids to identify themselves, you get chipper, typical stuff like "My name is Suzie Parker!", and "I'm Johnny Johnson!", or "We're twins, Melissa and Melinda Williams!". Then the teacher turns to a solemn young man sitting in the corner, his air one of supreme confidence and indifference.
"And who are you, young man?" she asks. "Khan is my name", he barks. "Well that's an interesting name, but what's the rest of it?" "Khan!" he says, turning away. Wouldn't THAT make an impression on everyone? Of course, to really pull off the whole thing, the kid would need a posse of genetically engineered playmates to do his bidding--but that's another story! <g123curious wrote:> Keith: Or you could go for something in between both extremes, such as: Boys: Hikaru Sulu Johnson Pavel Johnson Khan Noonien Johnson Geordi Johnson Garak Johnson Girls: Uhura Johnson Saavik Johnson Kira Nerys Johnson Tasha Yar Johnson Think of it this way: when your son is out playing in the neighborhood playground down the street and you yell for him to come home for dinner, a smile will come to your face everytime you yell, "Khhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaannn!" Me thinks that your wife will kill you either way. Hahaha! Enjoy the naming process for your kids.

My wife and I have discussed potential names for kids, and I was all stuck on African monikers. Now this has me thinking. Why saddle my kids with some boring human names when I have a galaxy of selections to choose: > Boys: Namor Johnson Norrin Radd Johnson Galan T'Challa Johnson Vril Dox Mon-El Johnson Brainiac Girls: Namorita Hippolata Johnson Katma Tu Johnson Zatanna LeFey Johnson The Destroyer <snip> [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] --------------------------------- YAHOO!
