The Name Game

My sister is going through baby names again because friends of hers are naming their daughter the name she had picked out. The sis is going around polling people about a new name, when she knows that her husband detests the name. And to top it off, they don't know if they're having a boy or a girl yet.

My brother in law thinks that the proposed name would lead to teasing, which has prompted all family members to drudge up names of names they used to make fun of. My brother in law graduated high school with a guy who was named (honest to God) Shithead. They spelled it that way but pronounced it Shathed (th sound). Kind of makes Dave Crocket sound appealing.
