The Name Game

Thought this game would be entertaining as 2002 winds down to a close, and we step into 2003. It’s quite simple, and fun. :slight_smile: Here’s the rules:

I will post a name, and the next poster has to post a name that they are reminded of when they see the previous poster’s name. To keep this halfway interesting, please say why the previous name reminds you of the name you will be posting. No way too personal details, please…

Note: Duplicate names are allowed, but only after a reasonable number of intervening posts. (at least ten to fifteen?)

Example:

Hope it’s clear! Might be interesting… or not… so who wants to play?

I’ll start:

David (my favorite kid! I love him; he’s so cute… blah blah blah)

F_X

This could be my first thread that is active in both 2002 and 2003. (unless the escalator one does that, too) Yay! :smiley:

Okay, cool.

Adam (The first person I thought of named David was Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour, which made me think of Happy Gilmore, which stars Adam Sandler).

Jehovah (you know … Adam and Eve).

Melinda (Jehovah=Jehovah’s Witnesses…I know this girl Melinda who’s a Jehovah’s Witness).

Erika, Melinda’s sister.

Susan – The name of a woman who plays Erika Kane on a soap.

Amy, Susan’s mom.

Darren – Amy’s brother

Darin Morgan, “X-Files” contributor (been watching the marathon on Sci-Fi).

Dick York, (Darren Stephens on Bewitched)

Burt (Dick York=Dick Van Dike, Dick Van Dike played Burt in Mary Poppins)

Ernie (sesame street) :smiley:

Nicholas Colissanto (Ernie was Coach’s name on Cheers)

Jack (Nicholas made me think Nicholson);

John, as in John Kennedy.

Paul [John Lennon, Paul McCartney]

Scott, Paul’s brother.
