Bronx Mowgli and other dumb baby names

Today I have found out that Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz filed for divorce. Although I am sad for them, the news reminded me of their child's awful name. Bronx Mowgli Wentz.

While sharing this name with a Good Friend of mine, we decided that if love should bring Ashlee and Pete back together and they again reproduce, they need to choose from the following selections for their new baby's name... to keep tradition alive of course.

1. Brooklyn Zazu
2. Manhattan Jafar
3. Queens Flounder
4. Soho Captain John Smith

In relation to this post, Good Friend and Good Friend's Man are beginning to talk about what they might name their baby if they should have one someday. Good Friend and Good Friend's Man have very different opinions. (Good Friend's Man seems to have a reason behind nixing every name)

I decided to give my input, so I told Good Friend they should name their baby Jumanji.

This was the convo between Good Friend and Good Friend's Man.

Good Friend: “Hannah thinks we should name our child Jumanji. Thoughts?”

Good Friend's Man: “She’s joking, right?”

Good Friend: “No, she thinks it is a classic name with spunk that pays homage to a great film.”

Good Friend's Man “I don’t even like that movie. No.”

Even the talented Robin Willimas can't please Good Friend's Man. Maybe the baby could be named Hook? or Bicentennial Man?
