Brad and Angelina named their daughter
Shiloh Pitt. You know she's going to have to put up with a lot of people "spoonerizing" her name. What were they thinking? |

If this was Sid and Martha's childs name then most likely. But since she has Angelina Joile and Brad Pitt for parents anyone who spoonerizes her name isn't going to be invited over afterschool. I'm sure she'll be the most popular kid around.
Besides, Shiloh is a very pretty name and there's not too many options around to keep your name from being abused when your last name is Pitt

...well accordingly to the formula used of brad and angie..."brangelina" They took the first letters of brad and the last letters of angelina.
that would mean they will be calling the child...S**t! As Arnold would say... Ya dats a good one! Or as Mr Sulu would say... Oh My! |

Justin,
I think you're only getting part of the spoonerization. One way to "spoonerize" is to switch the initial consonant sounds of words. I'm sure you've seen t-shirts that read: "Nucking Futs." And you know what you get when you spoonerize that. Now spoonerize "Shiloh Pitt." (Think phonetically.) |

Her last name is, in fact, Jolie-Pitt. Yep...they gave the kids hyphenated last names... At least her first name is a real name, unlike many Hollywood babies these days. Eh...who cares anyhow? Bring on the twins!

I used to hunt for the "Fum Duck" they are a rather foolish beast... walking out into traffic, and into the line of fire.
Similar to magicians, but with a stronger sense of self respect and integrity.
Magic is doing improbable things with odd items that, under normal circumstances, would be unnessecary and quite often undesirable.

I had a friend in high school named Paul Brick... yep, we reversed those letters all the time.
Greg P.S. And I can complain, too. My last name ARCE is pronounced R-C, but most people first say ARSE... Oh, well.

I knew a girl with the last name Ohno. Her Japanese father wanted to name her after his grandmother "Shegae". Luckly, her American mother prevented her from being named Shegae Ohno.

My mother swears she was the teachers assistant in a class where a girl was taught who had the unfortunate name "Rosey Buts".
Now, me; I would have made fun of her until she had an eating disorder to rival my own.... Unfortunately I was as of that time unborn, and unreasonably incapacitated by my mothers womb.

I always loved that the Lear jet family named their daughter Shanda.
Here in Australia we have a high profile trade union official named Grace Grace Destiny |

The lady who brought "bug" into the computer user's lexicon was named Grace Hopper.
Let us also not forget Rip Torn, Cab Calloway, Salmon P. Chase, Imogene Coca, Ty Cobb, and Wolf Blitzer! Harry S Truman's middle name is also unusual. |

A couple of years ago a lot of shops here had trouble with a gang of kids led by the children of the Crapper family.
What sort of chance did they ever have? Destiny |

While he created some great magic, I always wondered what kind of problems he had with a name like Burling Hull.
