OK folks Dew and Monty have a beautiful grandson with a name that they would rather not have. A nickname has been suggested, which is a good idea. But nicknames can be worse that given names and follow a child into adulthood. Like Bubba. A 47 year old man should not be know as Bubba-especially to the point that nobody even knows his given name.

My grandfather hated his given name and never used it. It was Arve. Arve Robin McCants was his full name, he just used his initials. He got the nickname Mac and went by it all his life. Us grandkids called him Daddy Mac. Arve does sound pretty awful..........

Drizzt might take a little getting used to. At least his middle name is not Tan......... ok baaaaad joke. :D

I vote for a nickname too. Choose wisely Monty and Dew.

LOL Baymule. That was a bad joke.... but funny! We will use Lee, Charissa and her family can use what ever they like.... She told her daughter to call him Lee.... So I'm guessing that's what they will use also.... He may never know his real name until he goes to school.

There was an old movie about Abraham Lincoln with Henry Fonda in it.

A major portion of the movie included a trial that Lincoln was the defense lawyer in. One of the people Lincoln questioned in the trial was a man named Jack Cass. Now, Jack used his middle name normally, and it did not come out that his first name was Jack until Abe questioned him about it.

Depending on how you say that man's name, it could sound like what a male mule is called, or what a knave might be called. That guy turned out to be the guilty one by the way. Least in the movie. See, what he claimed he saw from a far distance at night turned out to be a night with no moon, so Abe cornered him on the stand using a farmer's almanac.
