After which institution of higher learning would YOU name your baby?

I remember seeing some one with two boys with name to the effect of Neyland and Eli Knoxville.

I had to shake my head but then I remembered my dad would have done that. I'm glad I'm a girl or I might have ended up Neyland Bryant or something like that being the child of UA/TN mixed marriage.

I do know some Ole Miss alums who named their miniature dachshund "Archie Manning!"

If I was naming after alma maters I guess I'd have Mary and Dom. Pretty boring. I like the school mascot names but naming my son Testudo would just be cruel.

All of the Aggies that I know are short for Agnes. A rather "old" name.

However, in the case of Texas A&M, sadly these "Aggies" are likely not short for Agnes. Tragically, these parents probably are *actually* naming their child after the mascot.

Yep, some from that school are just that weird....
