what's in a name?

the baron: so, one of my students was telling me that we shouldn't give our child a name that's too, you know, out there.

the husband: oh?

the baron: yeah. he said we didn't want to start our children off "one down" in life. i told him that, of course, from his lofty position of [redacted, easily and obviously pronounced 4 letter name] he was able to say something like that.

the husband: oh?

the baron: also, he had lots of advice about parenting... he's got multiple children, and is, ah, very religious. i was hoping the name topic wouldn't come around to last names, but it did. i told him we don't have the same last name, and that we hadn't settled on the baby's last name yet...

the husband: you should have told him we're waiting to pick the last name because we don't know who the baby's father is.

the baron: right. because things are funny when i'm a whore?

the husband: no. well, yes.
