Can't we all just Moove away from this topic?

Some actors or actresses just generally fit the villain profile well. Kevin Bacon, for one.

The popularity of the name "Chantal" comes from St. Jeanne-Françoise de Chantal.
I once knew a little girl whose name was spelled "Chantell", which is just sad.

Variations in the spellings of names happens all the time.
Witness: "Aimee" becoming "Amy," for instance.

The "Chantal" to "Chantell" thing is sad to me because it changes the pronunciation and it shows a disregard for the French language. I'm also a little tired of trendy names. That's just one of my things.

And Rocky will write angry (but polite) letters to parents who use the name "LeeJon" so he can correct their spelling

I don't think it would do any good. In the last couple of decades, there has been a huge trend towards giving children "unique" names, which are usually not unique at all. If I ever had a daughter (which I will not because The Boyfriend and I decided early on that we didn't want kids), she'd be named Mary, after my mother and because she 'd certainly be the only one in her class.

Whether it's Mary or MArY (I much prefer the former), it's certainly better than, say: Peaches, Pixie, Fifi Trixiebelle, or Heavenly Hrani Tiger Lily.

I've met several young women named "Precious", which just reminds me of Gollum. Blecch!

The Pretenders' first album has a great song called "Precious," in which Chrissie Hynde keeps boasting about being precious. She also tells a guy to eff off.
