my parents used to live in a house called Poor Jack's. I wonder if borrowing that would be appropriate.

I'm all in favour of names like Todd and Pansy cottage, personally. All this fellatio and relativity and and impropriety seems a bit odd to me.

I'm tending to stick to that sort of idea because having a name recognisably studenty'd make it easier to find for people having forgotten the number, and I find them easier and more fun to think of. Also, if it's more unusual it's more likely to be unique. But feel free to suggest anything you think'd be good, it might well strike a chord.

[mair_in_grenderich]

call it piano, then it can strike chords.

I was going to say nocturna, then I thought that sounded like neptune, then I thought if you were going to name it after a planet uranus would have more amusement value.

Wait, did I use 'chord' wrong??

That reminds me of a couple of Angst Technology cartoons.

D: The computer's're called after planets. The file server's called Uranus.
A: I'm can't download logs from Uranus.
B: You should eat more fibre.
A: I can't access Uranus.
B: You'd be lucky.
[etc]
D: FINE! I'll rename the servers. Computer companies?
A: Don't forget Wang.
D: I'll NUMBER the servers.
B: Don't forget 69.
D: OK, WISE GUYS, WHAT IF I NAME THEM AFTER 17th CENTURY FRENCH NOVELISTS? HUH? HUH?
A: I liked Dumbass.
B: I prefered Balsack.

Don't think so. Are you sure you don't want to call it ambiguity? ;)

[cartesiandaemon.livejournal.com]

Maybe.

[mair_in_grenderich]

well, if you're going down that line, is there one called ambiguity yet? What about innuendo?

(On which subject, call it The James and start a Poohsoc naming trend).

[cartesiandaemon.livejournal.com]

I don't think so, but I think those are unfortunately *too* generic; no-one'd remember which is mine :)

Hmm. Not James, for callign houses after people is confusing, but that *is* a thought. *thinks of Pooh puns*

[mair_in_grenderich]

Ther James, not James!

I had another idea, but it went between me thinking of it and me getting to a Livejournal window.

Probably a good thing.

Call it Bayes ;)

I should point out that fellatiovilla does have some sort of rational basis - the actual name, as written on the wall of the house, is Florence Villa, and Roger has a dirty mind.

OK, so it's not that rational.
