Brand naming kids

[Douglas G. Wilson]

>But if you name a child Lexus ....

This may be a special case. The line of reasoning goes like this. There are
a large number of women named Mercedes, including some (maybe minor)
'celebrities'. 'Clearly' they are named after a prestigious auto brand
(^_^). Then Lexus (resembling Alexis) would be good too ... also Porsche (=
Portia) ... maybe not BMW though.

Google for Lexus + actress, or Porsche + actress, and you can see actresses
with these names (not big mainstream stars maybe). So maybe in some cases
the names are taken from the actresses.
