Speaking of names of funeral homes, last night whilst driving through
Cambridge, MA (I think) I ran across "Long Funeral Service."  As David
Letterman would say: hey, that's just what I was looking for...

One of my favorite names, for sheer aural rather than pun value,
belonged to a guy in my high school, his name was Rocco Bravaco.
Bravaco rhymes with Rocco, by the way, accent on the second syllable.
Flows trippingly off the tongue, wot?

During some discussion about naming kids in net.kids, I thought
about "generic" names, and the notion of naming your child Gene Eric.
This would be especially amusing if his last name was Child.
