we went to a reptile show in the basement of our library yesterday.. we were early, and the guy running the show said he liked to play a game while he waited for a show to start.. he'd pick a kid, the kid tells him the first letter of their name, and he guesses the name. some he got in the first guess or two. a few he couldn't guess at all. he called on my son Linus.. he's one of the ones that he couldn't guess :)

oh and since this is a community about names, I thought I'd share some of the terrible pun names of his pythons: Julius Squeezer and Cate "as in suffocate".

I think the pun names are cute (actually seeing as they are for animals) and serve an educational purpose. They help kids remember things and from your post I guess there were quite a few kids at the show.

I knew a cat named "Astrophe" as in catastrophe.

yeah, the show was for kids. I'm guessing most if not all the adults present were parents or grandparents.
