I've always thought that some of the Disney Playhouse names were a little far fetched.

i think it's good they're kind of out there. that's a lot of characters and they'd ruin a lot of good names if they gave them all real names. you know, how sesame street ruined Elmo. that was popular a while ago. or like Basil from your list-- that was on the popular names of the 20s list! not popular now (although that probably has nothing to do with the show).

i would name my kid Pooh, cause kids poo a lot. haha.

Trina - I know someone named this, it's short for Catrina, I think.

Wayne - Ugh, one of my least favorite names, haha

Kip - does he have a brother named Napoleon? ;)

Fran - I actually sorta like Fran. I wouldn't use it, but it's not bad.

Leo - LOVE this name. It's on my maybes list.

Quincy - It's OK but I probably wouldn't use it. Maybe as a mn.

Annie - LOVE this name. I don't like just Ann/e, though, so I wouldn't use it.

Otto - it's on my maybes list for middle names - it's a family name

Tigger - I would totally name my kid this if I could get away with it, haha :)

I swear they just make up names like that to help kids learn to pronounce different letter combinations...if that makes any sense?

My guidence counselor in HS was named that. Her office was decorated in Ginger Spice (of the Spice Girls) dolls.

These are cute for real kids...:
