the church, in an attempt to be more inclusive, should start to use names from other cultures. I mean, from a purely marketing point of view, wouldn't the Church WANT to branch out from the rather limiting Judeo/Christian names and start including names from other cultures? Maybe we should help out by providing a few suggestions?

Indian: Ganesh
German: Adolf
Hispanic: Pedro
Thai: Sangcharonwanakul
Zulu: Shaka
Navajo: Running Bear
Aboriginal: Caltowi (Sleepy lizard waterhole)
Irish: McDonalds
Hawaiian: Humuhumunukunukuapuaa
Chinese: Fah Qu
Iranian: Ayatollah
Arabic: AliBaba
Japanese: 晶, 明, 秋, 亜希

And now to be REALLY inclusive:
Pre-Adamic: Australopithecus
Pre-Adamic short people: Homo floresiensis
Vulcan: Spock

Any other ideas?

Italian: Corleone
Traditional Italian: Caesar
Less-mobile Navajos: Sitting Bull
Atlantan: Tritan
Somalan: Blackbeard
French: Surrender (Yes, it IS French!)

Southern: BUBBA
Idahoan: LaFawndah
Greek: Falafel
Celebrity-Inspired: Inspektor Pilot
Italian: Condordia
Russian: Stoli
Icelandic: Bjork
God-Induced: Tsumani

There is no hell, there is only....France! - Frank Zappa

Zappaesque: Dweezel

that I type medical records. You would not believe some of the names I run across. The ones I loved the most were from Native Americans in the states like Michigan and Minnesota. The one I love the most was a last name of Stillsmoking.

I think that would fit!

Scientologists: Xenu
Star Wars Fans: Chewbacca, Han, Jar Jar, C3PO, etc.
Rednecks: Bubba, Bobby Joe, Macky Sue, Lurleen
Catholic: Jesus
