    any suggestions?


    I think he looks better than Robbie. He looks like E.T. too, in a way. Could it be possible that they have relatives in common? I have no idea regarding the name! What about 'Robbie-wannabe'?

    How about Rupert. He looks like a Rupert.

    Just got my list of old names (made in 1952) from the shelf because I felt that Robbie's brother need one of these very old names. That would make him special - nobody calls their children Ehrenfried any more. Some of these are hilarious:

    Agomar
    Ausfried
    Bringfried
    Bertwin
    Kasimir
    Rathold
    Leuthold
    Trutzbert

    I think he looks either like Bringfried or like Kasimir. What do you think?

    If u can be a scientist, I can eat a dead rat! If u can be Adam Garcia, why cant i be eating a dead deer?!!


    Anyway, i think Kasimir's a cool name Barbara. (and hey all those names u put up are classy i tell ya! )

    Looking at my bookshelf, I came up with the following:

    Dalton (not very common, but more common, I think, than the following; besides, one of my best friends is named Dalton)
    Ambrose
    Quasimodo ( )
    Dori ( )
    Huckleberry-bot (my favorite from this list)
    Bertrand (Bert for short )

    I love robots, but I honestly can't think of a creative name for it right now...I'll think about that. I would name it the Destructotron3000 or something like that and make it "walk" around my desk and make it go "pew pew pew boom" and pretend it's destroying...Tokyo...after it's fought Godzilla...

    He's cute though.
