Hey, it's better than "Braydon.."

I've been collecting the names that the various kidstuff catalogs use on their personalizable items (mostly fairly classic with a few oddities), so you can see how this image, from Magic Cabin, gave me a bit of a start:

In a world filled with tiny female Coopers, Chandlers, Parkers, and even Cutters (Seriously, I recently heard of a classroom in Texas with not one but two little Cutters), hell, why not Seymour?

As for Magic Cabin itself, they sell the sort of good-for-you goods, tin pails and wooden blocks and play-forts and old-fashioned marble races, which I'm guilty of longing for (and occasionally buying) without ever being completely clear on *whose* idyllic childhood I'm trying to (re)create, my own or my children's.
