Anti Naming

I have just purchased a book that discusses the art of anti-naming (ok, it's not really an art).  This is the idea that you assess all of the things you don't want in a name and narrow down your choices that way.  I'm going to comb through the book and use it for some good old blog discussion.  So, some upcoming topics to look for:

• Bad nicknames
• unfortunate namesakes
• creative (and difficult) spellings

There's more, but they just aren't jumping out at me yet :).
