Our dear friends are expecting a baby, and they think it's going to be a boy. When they were in town a couple weeks ago, we chatted a bit about possible names for the kid. And that made me wonder: What are some boy names that parents should avoid? Here are a few that I came up with after almost no reflection on the matter:
- Adolf
- Lucifer
- Goliath
- Genghis
- Onan
Did I miss any obvious ones? Let me know in the comments. Who knows? If we get enough of a list going, it could be a real public service.
In other news, I finally updated the rickety old blog software that runs this site. It was a painstaking process, and I'm not sure it was completely successful, so if you run into any problems, please let me know. For now the site is using a barely modified canned theme for its design. It feels a bit too "corporate" for my taste, but I wanted to make sure things worked before I started trying to dress it up again.
