Unusual and Cruel

Sarah Palin in a recent interview for People:
Alicia in New York City asks, Do you think about having more children?
SP: No-o-o-o. We got our starting five. That's the final five.

Alicia also wondered if you had any more unique names up your sleeve.
SP: We did. We never got to get our Zamboni in. I always wanted a son named Zamboni.
"Zamboni Palin." It has a nice ring to-oh wait no it doesn't. That's just horrible. Growing up is hard enough without being named after a brandname for a gargantuan machine that smooths ice. "Maybe it has another meaning," I thought. Nope.
Zam•bo•ni
trademark
a brand of machine that smooths the surface of the ice on a rink
As long as you're going for a brandname, why not choose something a little softer, like "Kleenex?"
