Alpha is a name?

[Bocaj Claw]

Interesting concept. What is your name again?

I heard that Michael (including its nicknames) is the most common male name in the U.S., followed by David. I actually know many more of the latter, and also more Williams and Christophers. Must be my area.

That would explain why it's the most common in my school. Coincidentally, one of the girls in "Podunk U" is named Jennifer, which just happens to be the most common female name. <!--emo&:blink:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /blink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='blink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I think I'll name my first child Ishmael.

I was thinking about naming my first child Jason. And encouraging him to play hockey.... Oh yes. <!--emo&:evil:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... s/Evil.png' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='Evil.png' /><!--endemo-->

I hate to interrupt all this frivolity, but there's a Tropical Storm Beta right now heading for Nicaragua.

[DesertFoxCat]

Beta Sampson sounds better

[Richard K Niner]

You mean "Hurricane Beta" <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->
