I was wondering if you could do a poll on the boy's name Tucker. While I know it obviously rhymes with, um, that word, I know my mind didn't go there. Or if it did, it was more like a quick visit than a long stay. Meanwhile, other people I've mentioned the name to immediately say "it's cute, but it rhymes with *ucker." What are your thoughts? Is a boy named Tucker doomed to endless taunting of "Tucker the *ucker"?
Thanks!
Good question! I've wondered this myself. Not only about The Word, but also about the less-severe word "sucker." Let's have a poll, over to the right. [Poll closed; see results below.]
