"Stupid Children's Names"

Doesn't every child deserve a name, intelligent or not?

and when kids want to be mean it doesn't matter what another child's name is - they will find some way to make fun of it.

I thought it sounded middle Eastern, Peter. I'll bet most of the kids peers won't even know it was Superman's name, unless they are told.:-)

I used to work with Jimmy Olson. He was Irish, though.

Didn't Mr and Mrs Thomas from Birmingham name their child Ivor John?

Nicolas Cage has named his newborn baby Kal-el (Superman's name on Krypton). I mean, really. One thought this hippie burdening of your offspring was over ("Oh let's name him Peace-Love-Turnip to show our love for vegetables!"). Childhood is hard enough with ridiculous name abuse from the cradle. If the child leaves home at 15 and becomes a hardened accountant, I for one will not blame him.
