If you name your children after:

1. Wine or any other type of beverage (ie Chardonay, Alize, Cry'stal)
or
2. After a vehicle (Chrysler - I do know someone that name their son this!!! !!!!)
LOL I agree. I work for a program that services elementary students and you wouldn't believe the ghetto names I have come across! Can you imagine a teacher their first day of school! Our people certaintly have TOO much creativity in giving names. What ever happened to the signifigance of a name? For example, my name means "she who is like the Lord." If your name is Alize you certaintly won't find that in a baby book! What would a liquior related name say about a child? Names are to give character and meaning for their life! For example, our line names identify charaterists about us. "rhapsody = elated bliss!" That's me!
