My reply: I wonder...are all lotr characters bad names. I mean obviously sam
wouldn't be..and Frodo would be. The same goes with Legolas *evil name.* But
I actually like Arwen (hate the spelling though) and I love the name Pippin.
.always have.
 

 Me -

Oh no - I like Arwen too, and galadrial could have been worse (the main
problem was the girl in question didn't suit the name) but Celeborn? I mean
come on - that's an invitation to pick on the poor boy to all his potential
schoolmates :)

And what I said about Delenn earlier - it is quite a pretty name. (although
your taste in men, whoever it was that said that .... Michael Garibaldi was
far sexier than Sheridan <g>)

Really as I said earlier I was considering inflicting Lucifer on a potential
child so I have no room to talk anyway :) Although you could shorten it to
Luc, and it *is* a nice name, just has some unfortunate associations.

There was one couple in the news a few years back who gave their child 26
christian names, one for each letter of the alphabet - poor thing's going to
*love* filling in forms when he/she (I forget which) gets older, not to
mention he's going to be an adult before he can even *remember* all of them
:)

And a couple of people have named their children after entire football teams
(the players' names obviously not the actual team)
