evildoom_bunny and I were talking about baby names (my friend Zoya rejected "Paul" out of hand - how dare she!)... The conversation went like this:
Maxcelcat: I've always thought Shania has a nice ring to it
Evildoom: Yes, or there's always Britney, or Madison.
Maxcelcat: Well, why stop there, if both names are nice, why not hyphenate them: Britney-Madison-Rainbow
Evildoom: Well, you're obviously limiting the capabilities, the endless possibilities of the child with a name like that. Why stop there? Why not Britney-Madison-Hope-Charity-Rainbow?
Maxcelcat: That's far too American, we need an Aussie version with all the Aussie female virtues: Sheila-Meat-Pie-Bring-Me-A-Beer-Bitch-Esky.
*sigh* I wish this wasn't a joke... I know of four children lumbered with the following names:
Elite (I WISH I was making this up!)
Christelle (One of my cousin's kids)
Eammon (Elite's brother, who was almost called Carlton after his parents favourite football team)
Zenith (We figure she'll end up dating Elite...)
Let this be a leason kids - be thankful for your common-or-garden names!!!!
