What would you NOT name your child?

[honeychile]

Let me see, I went to school with a Penny Kenny, a Kandy Kane, and Pete Moss - seriously! Wanna see my yearbook? My mama went to school with a Rose Bush.

I know a girl who was named Memory, and I'm just hoping that she doesn't become big on top, if you know what I mean.

I'm also anti-nickname, and anti-cute-spell. blech.

All that aside, I would probably take a list of the top 100 baby names, discard those, and go from there. There are some beautiful names that just fall out of use from time to time. At least, I'd do that for a daughter. I would keep our family tradition and go for John William for a boy - 9 known generations can't be all bad!
