I had another one of those "What were you thinking, people?" experiences today. I was in a shop, and a woman was in there with her 5 or whatever year old son. His name? Maverick. I can only imagine what was going through the heads of her and the father when they gave their kid a name like that. They're just asking for him to get frequently laughed at and teased for his name when he's in school. Maverick is a good name for a dog or a horse, it is not a good name for a child.
