I think labeling "Kitchenaid Whiskey Jones" as "borderline" is too lenient. "McKeinsleigh" I think is the borderline one. Marijuana Pepsi managed to make something of it – ironically writing her PhD thesis around it – but I would be thinking forwards and backwards about what a name I give could do to a living, breathing person their entire life (even if they get it legally changed).

    I've always told people pick a name for your child and unless there is a realy good reason don't name them after yourself. Then say the name out loud a few times, if you can see a respected doctor,CEO, and janitor having that name then you picked a good one. Middle names are free space and that's where you can be "quirky"
