    Example: I suggest the name Chloe Jr. (which came from a certain small member of our household)

    *Please refrain from voting until Friday night, when everyone has had a chance to participate.*

    may people leave more than one comment / one name per comment but you can enter as many times as you come up with a punny name?

      Of course! You can enter as many times as you wish ~ One name per comment, please, to keep things simple ;)

      ETA ~ We have decided to create a separate post once all the names have been submitted, at which time you can submit your vote. (Above comments were deleted due to the change in voting process)

    Right now I am watching a video of the Punch Brothers on "Epic Awesome Videos" and their banjo player is one of my favorites. His name is Gnome Pikelny. I'm not making it up - I'm watching them right now.

    Kelli's coworker Gail sent me an email with this submission that was too good not to share:

    Gnome N. Clature


    Just saying.


    no·men·cla·ture
    ˈnōmənˌklāCHər/
    noun
    the devising or choosing of names for things, especially in a science or other discipline.


    Gail....thanks for playing along and you're in the game!!!

    I know it's not a pun, but it sounds like a gnomey name, and it is a BT pattern, which is part of our KAL ~ Ludlow
