The naming of kids is a difficult matter; it isn't just one of your holiday games...

[sanura]

you may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter/
but I tell you a cat must have three different names. /
First of all, there's the name that the family use daily...

Lucifer (Luc, as in Jean-Luc, in polite company)
Peter
Daniel
Julian
Isaiah
Seth

There are fancier names, if you think they sound sweeter/
Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames...

Apollo (Pol for short)
Leonid
Azrael (Ray)
Melusine
Arianrhod
Juventas

But I tell you, a cat needs a name that's particular,/
a name that's peculiar, and more dignified. /
Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular, /
or spread out his whiskers, or cherish his pride? /
Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum...

Coricopat
Anu
Afer
Zeresrani
Io
Aliah
Eleiadru
Illuminarya
Ea

Nice verse. ^^ And the naming of kids can be quite... taxing. When there are quite a few. Aherm. ~Nia

Hmm... the originality overwhelms me to the point that I don't think we'll ever be able to have children together...
