Here is a short list of the ones who come to mind; 1. Brick (of course he had red-hair as well) 2. JoJo (Is he destined to become a clown) 3. Damion (You are just asking for problems) 4. Berry (c'mon...seriously) 5. Blayse (Pronounced Blaze...a name for a horse) 6. Daria (maybe I watched to much Beavis nd Butthead in HS) 7. Braxton (just makes me think of contractions) I'm sure if I sat here I'd think of more....but Maxie is pretty bad too. Hey... you gave me authority to go off on a tangent!
