i despise, for no obvious reason, the name Jack. And it's become ubiquitous over the last decade despite being virtually obsolete - an anachronism - when I was growing up.
It reminds me a bit of a Monkey Dust sketch some of the names coming up here.
I can't find the initial part of this sketch, but involves potentially giving the baby names like Hercules. According to wikiquote, the initial sketch goes:
"
Mother: I know what we should call him. How about Jacoby?
Baby: [thinking] What?
Father: That's nice, although I had rather set my heart on Hugo.
Baby: [thinking] Hugo? Hugo?! You fucking twat!
Father: Then again, we could name him after my grandfather, Thursby.
Baby: [thinking] You absolute fucking tosser! They will beat me like a Chipperfield monkey!
Mother: No, I know what's nice.
Baby: [thinking] Dave! Steve! Chris! Steve! Dave! Anything!
Mother: Hercules!
Baby: [thinking] Oh, that's a good idea - if I want to be a fucking gladiator!
Father: The classical touch is nice, but how about Archimedes?
Baby: [thinking] How about "Fucking Gaylord" and be done with it!"
And then...
