I’d rename myself Clem Sable.
The kids would be Nora Mauve and Margery Maple.
When I was a kid I always thought that I looked like a Jamie. I don't think that anymore and haven't for a long time, but oh well, it's part of my 'what if?' history of imagination, I'm going for it. And I love pearls, so I'm going with Jamie Pearl for myself.If I had two children, a boy and a girl, they'd be Adam Brass and Flora Cherry
(though I am also fond of my runners-up, Clyde Ink and Bessie Apricot)There are still SO many other great combos I love, though! We'd be here all day if I had my way.
