yojimboguy could marry into my family and become a yojimboguy-mojo. of course I despise all my inlaws, (thank goodness there are few of them) So, no thats not a solution at all. Sorry. ---

**Jimjiminy Jimjiminy Jimjimeroo**? The Jimmest name I could think of, absolutely brimming with Jimness. Failing that **Yogi Bum Joy** is most excellent. ---
