He or she will have to live with this name... and spell it... and/or explain it...

...for the rest of his/her life.

Think about it.

Plus, your name is already "automotive-related."

That's enough. Really.

Something simple. Maybe make it sound cool *with* Bristol.

Before I saw what your first name is, I was gonna suggest "Kurt" for a boy... but that's too close phonetically. BTW, when I saw "Kirk," the first thing I thought was, "Your mom and dad had good taste."

Kirk Bristol... I mean... how cool is that?

If it's a boy, name him Jack and be done with it. Pick a middle name from somewhere back in your family or your wife's... like a grandmother's maiden name... and make it sound cool with Jack and Bristol.

For a girl... I dunno... Anna... Janet... Katherine (Kat)... Lauren... just don't make it hard to spell.

Remember, he/she has to live with it a lonnnnnnng time.
