[Opinions] You know what?

I like word names. I like them a lot. But Pleasant isn't simply a nice-sounding word I found in the dictionary--it has a great deal of history.
Alvin Pleasant Delaney Carter. Go look him up sometime.
I'll leave the question of what my theoretical son (I'm glad you know his personality so well, btw--someone oughta, and a stranger on the internet would be my first choice) would do out of this, along with the question of "dignity and manhood" (because I go to a very liberal women's college and don't have the time for sexist crap like that, thanks--we talk it up enough in class). That's not what I have a problem with.
I'm most bothered by the fact that that you think Pleasant can't be a name because it's a word. Never mind that it's a word with a history of use--you've never heard it before, and therefore, it's no good.
Pull your head out your ass, please and thank you.
