PS. This was a family effort, with several contributors. Blame the really bad ones on Dean. We'll waive the creative consulting fees on the rest.
There's a book my 7.5-year old is reading, Captain Underpants meets Professor Poopypants, something like that. Anyway, the story revolves around Prof. Poopypants becoming a bad guy because everyone makes fun of him and his name. He goes on to force the whole world to change their names using three charts - take the first letter of your first name and it corresponds to a word on the first chart, then the first and last letters of your last name correspond to words on the other two charts. Mine came out as Poopsy Monkeypants...
C'mon man! Can't be that hard. If you're like my family, the name usually evolves (microevolves, no such thing as macroevolving. Just for your Bear.) into something altogether different.
For example: We had one cat we named Biff. Which evolved into Biffer. Which evolved into Beefer. Which evolved into Beefy Man. Which evolved into Beefer Zookie Man. (no clue how Zookie got in there though. Random mutation I think.) Which evolved (devolved? Lost information?) into Zookie Man. Which ultimately resulted in Zookie, or Zook.
So the name you choose is really just the starting block.
