Supplemental Question of the Day

What's so terrible about the name Zaphod (or Zaphodina for a girl) when
it comes to naming children?

Nothing's wrong with it. It's very original.

i wouldn't say anything is wrong with it. it's just not something you hear a lot and there's a lot of criticism going around for people who give their kids original names. but then, what's worse about this than the hippies who named their kids things like Sunshine Rainbow? i'm just waiting for an opportunity to use the name Zephyr.

zaphod is a perfectly suitable name; however all girls should be named Trillian-- not Zaphodina.

Okay, you see, Trillian I could accept. Phenchurch might cause problems. Random ... not so sure.

me likes phenchurch!
.. my first computer was named Arthur Dent and my hearing aid is called "The babelfish."

Most people think it's biblical... which I guess it is, in a rather round-about Adam's-esque kind of way...

Um ... Let's see. Too difficult to spell, too difficult to pronounce, and just plain not ever going to happen. SMILE! *HUGS*
