I too am squiffy. not that squiffy though.

Can you imagine shouting either across the park?

Woody yes.
Moury, probably not.

But they are beautiful looking names.
And you wouldn't get the 'you'll never be a politician with that name' comments.

Woodrow, I suppose. Because I can't help but think of Seymour Butts.

They are the names of my imaginary future children (or names that never got past DH the first two times).

While we're here, i have a Calum and a Sol.
I would have loved Columbus and Solomon but, you know, for all the reasons Seymour and Woodrow don't work.
How do I get over it?

Philip Seymour Hoffman makes it sound cool.

Woodrow was in the Simpsons too. He was in the episode where Bart answered Ms. Crabapple's personals ad and sent fake love letters to her.

If you're not pg, then you don't even have hormones to blame for this....
