what's in a name

so johnny cash sings about a song about "a boy named sue"
who's dad left him, but not before giving him the name sue. he was traumatized his whole life, with the only choice but to become extra strong, which was what his dad wanted for him in the first place. the power of a name...

don't worry lil' pearson, we won't name you sue.

william shakespeare writes about the importance of a name between lovers; a name is what holds them apart...
'Tis but thy name that is my enemy.
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? !

don't worry lil' pearson, we won't name you Montague...

Abbot and Costello preform a routine that ends up in an argument all because of a name...

don't worry lil' pearson, we won't name you "Who"...or "What"...or "I Don't Know."

the one thing we can quite figure out is what in the world are we going to name you????
