My oldest sons name is Aden. He was named for my nanna who died shortly before he was born. Her name was Edna.

At the time I wondered how much strife there'd be because we left out the i, but it seems that leaving out the i has become pretty popular. I've even seen it spelled Ayden which I think is a bit weird.

My other son is named Maverick. It always gets spelled properly although I still can't get any of those production signs or cups with names on them.

Jeez, i know how to bring a thread down, don't I?

Back to baby names ...
I have seen some notable names working in various administrivial jobs:
Dick Pilot (surely you would go as Rick or Ricky or something)
Pattipong Dikshit (a perfectly respectable name in Thailand)
And if your family name was Stretch, would you name your son Mark???

Okay, I've said that one aloud and thought about it for awhile, but I can't figure it out... what's wrong with Kristin Stitz? Besides the fact that it's just hard to say.

Not much you can do to fix "Stitz", though.
