    MD it's a saying batman uses.

    Maybe call her Holly and use the Toledo as a nickname, not her official name.

    I read this while watching Batman & Robin on telly

    I wouldn't, but she'd only really get Holly *surmane* wouldn't she? Not like middle names come into every day life.

    But then, if you're like me, & yell first & middle names when really pee'd off...

    Think about it, you'd have the neighbours


    ETA - I love Savannah, Montanna & Dakota as names. I don't think the fact that there are American places with those names has anything to do with what you name your baby, unless it was 'Australia', or something more unusual (Ularu? ).

    Nope. It is terrible. It's like giving your child a joke name! A girl I went to school with recently had twins and gave them both danger as a middle name. You have to remember this is a little person. Not a tv show. If you like it,maybe call the dog that.

    The difference being that Danger is actually a surname, so you could pass it off as a family name.

    Thats exactly what I thought when I read that!

    But yeah back on topic...Honestly? I think it would be really cruel. Holly is lovely, (it reminds me of christmas ) but definitely scrap the Toledo. Remember kids are tactless and mean whether they intend to be or not, and batman is a show that has bridged the generation gap so they are possibly going to know the phrase. I got teased massively at school simply because my name rhymed with goanna, and it made my life hell until the end of primary school. And to think my mother didn't want to call me Charlotte because it rhymed with harlot...because kids know what a harlot is mum *rolls eyes*. Anyway my point is the same as Lilima said, this is a person, not the family pet or a sitcom character. Maybe you could get her a puppy or kitten when she's older and call it Toledo and they can have adventures and when they get in trouble you can yell "Holly, Toledo! What have you done now!" lol

    Our last names together, with rhyming slang make us "smelly farts"...so we decided against double barrel names for our kids! LOL

    I went to school with a Wayne King and a Randy Johnson....

    You're right Ginger, I'm not really serious...I just think its cute & funny. I thought the reference to Tululah Does The Hula would let people in on the joke. Should have put more in.

    I have a friend who works with a Sunny Tan. Seriously...
