My husband is named Bart - and it's often an apt name.
LOL Just don't tell him I said that...

Names - specifically, unusual names - I think it really
depends on the individual.  Some people just can carry
off a different name.  I've actually known two Rainbows
in my life.  One of them fit her name, and she "wore"
it well, while it was just silly for the other one.

I like my own name...
