Some parents think it is cool to name their kids after place names, like Chelsea Clinton or Bristol Palin.
Just a few moments ago, while flicking channels quickly (I do not intentionally watch BBC news), I saw a bit of a clip of George Bush’s speach at the Republican Convention, and heard him say the words: ‘Hanoi Hilton’. No context, just the words.
I could not help myself thinking just how lucky Paris was that her parents named her after that city!
(O.K., so I’m a little under the weather, this might just be the fever talking….)
