Name that infant

My nephew, His Majesty the Only Child, is expecting a new sibling in February. His parents have a long list of names, including some howlers--names that simply don't go with our last name, names that sound like items in a Pottery Barn catalog, names that will invite vile rhymes and variations.

So, to help them out, I am amusing myself these days by compiling a list of suggestions, including:

Nomar
Priapus
George Foreman VII
Mary Kate Nashley
Zeus
Hideki Matsui
Trixie (okay, I secretly like that)
Garfield
Nonnahs (my sister-in-law's name backward, a la Nomar)
Mumps
Irving
Condoleezza
JonBenet

Any others?
