Grammar lesson for the day:

Lets = permits, allows (among other definitions, like rents, etc.)
Let's = a contraction of "let us"

So in this case, you would use "let's".

As an homage to Seinfeld, name him "Seven". Though this time it'd be for his birth order, not Mickey Mantle's number .

so like whats with the name "christian"? I know a guy who named his kid that too. This is a guy in Northern Virginia who has prints of fox hunts and such like in his living room (in a McMansion), so I presume its some kinda episcopalian anglophile pseudo-aristocrat kinda thing.

I mean if i had a boy, i wouldnt have named him "jew", ya know?

many english words come from french. In french there is the name "christian" who does not mean christian since in french christian is "cretien" (sp?). So i don't think it's anglophile or anything. Just one of the many loans english took from french culture.

Now thats not bad.

I once threatened to name a son David Hume, David is a nice Jewish name, and Hume is ok as a middle name, and he combo is cool. But my bro named his boy David, and we didnt have a boy anyway.

Well, "Christian" (just like "Christophe") is a derivation from the Christ's name. But indeed, in France, "Christian" is firmly in first-name territory, and cannot be confused with the name of the religion (that would be "Chrétien")

We have more ambiguous names, like France.

...


France! Now that's the right name (Never mind that it's supposed to be feminine )

No wonder you're running out of names, not only do you breed like a rabbit, it seems one name isn't enough for your kids.


How about 'Poly'.

Finn? (my wife wants to call a kid that - ugh!)

Damon (cool Greek name).
Graham (official sounding).

Or you could use the When Harry Met Sally test. You have to imagine a women screaming "Ooooohhh [the name]!! Ride me big, [the name]!!!

If it doesn't sound right, then dump the name.

It's a bit like the Scoutmaster test for political leaders.
