So one night when Darryl and I were trying to fall asleep in Vegas, we somehow got on the topic of weird kids' names. Darryl isn't afraid to talk about the future, thankfully, so we tend to talk about things like this. For example, what the hell are some parents thinking when they spell their kid's name NOT how it's pronounced? There's this girl in my class who is ALWAYS getting her name mispronounced--our prof says something like "Na-kuh-she-uh" but she is always correcting him and her correction is NOT how it's spelled, like "Natalie" or something haha.
Darryl thought it would be funny if we did that to our kids since the names I like are kind of weird. I love the name "Kayleigh" but even I don't know how to properly spell it. If it were up to him, he'd spell it funny, and I told him, "Yeah, and then we can name our son something normal like 'Tim' to piss our daughter off!" Darryl then decided that we could piss our son off by using a silent "p" like in pteradactyl. Ptim!
We're weird, but that's why we get along so well :)
