Fuck it,
I'm gonna name all my offspring zebadiah... boy or girl
Ahhhh, the old "George Foreman" approach to naming offspring, eh?
I think Zebediah IS conventional. That is, conventional to the 18th century. Nowadays it would be a good way to ensure your boy gets the living crap beaten out of him at school. Have to say, I do like it somewhat for a GIRL though, I mean, "Zebby" is great nickname.
However I too have the fuck it/unconventional hat on.
If I ever have my own kiids (although I'm fairly certain that the universe will take steps to prevent me from procreating), I'd love to name them after different foods, specifically,
BREADS!
Sourdough.
Rye.
Pumpernickel (Hey Pumper! tee hee).
And my favorite, Cracked-Wheat! C'mere, Cracked-Wheat. Dinner-time, Cracked-Wheat. Hey Cracked-Wheat, wanna have a catch?
Note that the liquor has begun flowing, and I'm listening to some dynamite live blues. <hic>
