Rejected Baby Names: Clark Francis


This is a bad idea for the simple fact that eventually the kid would think that he could fly. Cut to young Clark jumping from sheds, fences, trees, stairwells and anything else that he could climb onto. It just involves too many hospital visits.

Rejected Baby Names: Princess Francis


I've always felt that anyone who raised their child to be a princess has done the child and the world a great disservice.
Most "Princesses" I've met have always demanded to be treated as royalty. When they were in fact only a royal pain in the ...

Rejected Baby Names: Hazmat Francis


I think that this sort of thing can happen with any child but lets hope that it can be avoided. And just incase you're wondering, no, that isn't chocolate pudding that he is playing with...

I'll be illustrating girl names on Tuesdays and boy names on Thursdays. If you have any name suggestions feel free to drop them in the comments section or e-mail me via my profile page.
Thanks for visiting.

New Personal Project Revealed


Taaa-Daaaa! On my August 14th post I said that I was working on a "personal project which will require some input from the public that will result in more regular blog updates." I should point out that "I" am not really the one doing the work but it is my wife who is doing the heaving lifting.

So for those of you out there who may not know, my wife and I are expecting our first child. Cute kid eh? Every baby needs a name and this is were the public comes into the picture.

I'm looking for baby names. Good, bad or just plain odd, it doesn't matter. Any names that might work for us we will put aside for consideration. Names that don't work for us, and are rejected, will be illustrated and posted on the blog. I'll post an illustration of a rejected baby name twice a week (Tuesdays and Thursdays) through to the birth of the little one in late January (or whenever the kid decides to show up).

We don't know if the baby will be a boy or a girl so all names are fair game and the baby will have the last name of Francis. I already have a few rejected name ideas in mind and I'll post the first picture sometime tomorrow.

So, if you have any names that you would like to share please feel free to place them in the comment section of the blog or drop me an email which you can find on my profile page.

Thanks for visiting and check back soon.
