Awful names. All of them.

I don't mind the nick name Just for the name Justice, but even then, I don't love it or anything. Paired with Trouble, Just is utterly ridiculous.

Even if they weren't siblings Lexus, Porsche and Audi aren't good names.

Stupid people, I tell ya, name their kids stupid things.

Craig Harrington said he has always liked the name Porsche and wanted to give the name to their first child. Sondra Harrington said she already had picked the middle name Marie and did not like the combination.

"When I said no to Porsche, he looked up and saw a Lexus going by," Sondra Harrington said.


wtf? because Lexus is so much better than Porche? and goes so much better with Marie- the most generic-goes-with-everything middle name ever?
I'm going to name my child Flute, because my husband doesnt like Viola and it was the next thing I saw.

Just is fine, Just Troube is lame and I hope their darling son turns out to be a little shit!

Pffsht.
Porsche & Lexus? How about Portia & Alexis? Close, but 100 times better. I have no solution of Audi, though.
And that poor Just Trouble.
'ARGH, you are just trouble!'
'That's right, I am.'

Poor children.

Just Trouble, eeewww.

Porsche and Audi? I could handle Lexus but Porsche and Audi, no sorry?
I especially liked the Toyota add above the article that said: "It's time for a new car."

If they're pronouncing Porsche as "porsh," I guess I can see the problem with Marie, but I don't really see how "por-shuh" doesn't sound good with Marie. Not that it matters, it's still a stupid name for a human being.

There's just no excuse for Audi. And I'd imagine this couple's grandchildren, Daewoo, Scion, Bugatti, Jeep, and Farvegnugen, are not going to be appreciative.

And, yeah, I hope Just Trouble doesn't prove itself a misnomer.

I think both these couples should have settled for adopting pets, although Trouble is a stupid name for even an animal.

Portia and Alexis would've been fine. I know a girl named Shelby, after the car, which isn't even so bad. But these...ugh! Audi is particularly awful.
