Naming Conventions

So now the arduous task of picking a name for our son begins. Frank really isn’t an option. I would also like to take this opportunity to rule out Jim (though James may still be a runner), Gerry (Gerard doesn’t make the cut either, I’m afraid) and Dirk (Karel, how could you?).

I am inviting suggestions but there are a few ground rules to cover before we embark down this road:

• The name has got to fit well with the surname “Murnane” (pronounced mur-nan for those of you who think that doofus on RTE2’s news says his name properly!)
  
• Preferably, the name should not begin with the letter M. This rule may be waived in the event that the first rule is satisfied
  
• The name should neither end with the letter M, nor a combination of letters that rhymes with "an" or "ane"
  
• Conor reserves the right to veto any name that meets the requirements of rules 1, 2 and 3 above without having to give any reason
  
• I reserve the right to veto any name that meets the requirements of rules 1, 2, 3 and 4 above without having to give any reason
  
• I reserve the right to change the rules without prior notice or warning
  

Suggestions can go into the comments box. There will not be a bottle of wine for the commenter who suggests a name that we use!
