    Shit like this makes me want to name my child Bob, whether it's a boy or girl.

    We have an Airika (Erica) in our region. And all kinds of versions of names that end in the long-e sound spelled ---ee. Bradlee, Kaylee, Baylee.

    You know what I've always thought would make a pretty name for a girl: Areola. My wife has nixed that name in advance, though.

    I'm wondering where you stand in the family hierarchy, or if you're just another Dickens Cider.

    Reminds me of a scene in the underrated flick "Two Ninas." Bray Poor's character, upon being called an asshole, responds that "it's ash-OLAY'."

    That won't necessarily work...what happens when "Bob" scores 15 in a girls BB game? That will be debated forever...

    Anyway, I'm surprised this one hasn't come up...

    Alissa
    Alisa
    Alysa
    Alyssa
    Allysa
    Allisa
    Elisa
    Elysa
    And on and on and on and on and on...

    Also Eric, Erik, Aric, Arik; Rebecca, Rebekah, Becca, Beka, Bekka, ReBecca, dadada
