I actually found this on the BBC news site, but thought this was interesting... Sarah Palin has five children with the following names:

Track
Bristol
Willow
Piper
and
Trig Paxson Van Palin

As stated in the article, According to the Washington Post newspaper, Track was named after the course of the sockeye salmon the family fishes off the town of Dillingham, while her eldest daughter's name comes from Bristol Bay, an area known for its salmon fisheries. The name Willow relates to the state bird, the willow ptarmigan, and a nearby town, the paper says, while daughter Piper shares her name with the family's small plane. Trig is the Norse word for "brave victory", the Post adds.

Wow. Just wow.

Sorry, I flipped back at least three pages and didn't see this posted. This community gets so many posts that it's hard to catch everything... I'm leaving this up for people who may have also missed it, but if the moderator sees fit, feel free to delete (or tell me to delete) this post.

Lol 3 pages is maybe like half a day's worth of posts. that's a bit of an exaggeration, but we post a lot in here so things get buried pretty quickly

hehe. Yeah, someone posted these earlier with a little game to name your own children along Sarah's guidelines. I'm an Alaskan, but I'd never heard her children's names before this. I was amused. At least she didn't name them Sourdough and Sleeping Lady?

Do you have a flag?

Really??

You know not the Eddie Izzard? Bringer of Cake or Death? Lover of Sue and Bread and high heels, which he can wear and not fall over? Impersonator of James Mason, Sean Connery, and Scooby Doo? Who is also known as The Emperor of Fabulous, Jeff Vador, and Executive Transvestite?

But... He likes his coffee like he likes his women: hot and strong. With a spoon in them.

Tell me this is not so XD

'E was a bloody monkey! 'E was a cheeky monkey...

Maybe I should update my Eddie icon. Do you think he looks creepy? All I can think of when I see it is his funny sing-songy mumbly voice, and sentences with the word ejaculation in them. And premature as well.

No, no, MATURE. Bearded man mature...

I think he always looks creepy, but in a sexy way. He is an executive transvestite, you know.

though the last times this was posted, they gave the wiki page for the reasoning behind the names, which were all totally different than these...

Sarah Palin has said in interviews her son Track is named because of her love of track since she and her husband are sporty.
