Our criteria were.... not so common that everybody had one. Not so unusual that they were hard to spell. One common way to spell. (My sister's name is Christy, and I'm familiar with all the trouble stemming from variations--Christie, Kristie, Kristy, etc. etc. etc.) Initials should not spell anything embarrassing or amusing. And no names of Gilbert & Sullivan characters. (That may sound weird, but Mrs. Dallas spends a lot of time conducting G&S shows, and if we had chosen, say, Frederick, or Mabel, some people were bound to think we named the kid after the character.)
