Howzabout Peach? Or, (for you SNL fans), Mango? Papaya would be cool, but only as a name to call your grandfather or something.
ROFL, remember when Danny Devito played Mango's dad, Guava? :big_grin:

We (or should I say I (my wife didn't like it)) considered Anie for our daughter. A Gaelic name meaning Joy (incidently pronounced Ahn-ya). We thought it might be a problem...and not because people would call her Annie.

I can see how it would cause pronounciation problems intially for some, but it's still a pretty name. Nice choice.

My daughter's name is Charlotte Evangeline Patricia.

And if he liked spinach, and took a job as a merchant, he would be...


Get ready for this...

:sleep: A tasteless one.

I think I missed that one... Sounds funny!

And "Papaya the Seller Man" is quite the groaner of a pun--the best kind, naturally.

To Andywan Kenobi, if we're lucky, we may see it on the Best of Chris Kattan on DVD....I don't know if it is, but it would definately be worth checking out!
