(no subject)

Your hypothetical friend Mrs. Stein tells you that they're thinking of naming their son Frank. It started off as a joke, but now they're seriously discussing pros and cons. She'd like your thoughts. Your knee-jerk reaction first, perhaps, but more importantly your considered opinion.

What do you think overall? Would it help or hurt with the inevitable playground teasing? What about later in life? Would it work better with a different middle initial? Would Franklin be better than just Frank? How would it affect his sense of humor? Or choice of majors in college? What other thoughts do you have?

(Just a morning musing brought on by having talked to my niece last night about my old thought of naming my hypothetical future son Frank.)
