Aw, I know an 11-yo Mercedes and she is delightful. A bit kooky, down to earth, and heart of gold.

Agreed, but it is funny that we don't bat an eye at Rex.
Seems we are more tolerant of these types of pretentious names when they are in a different language. We'd be all over a person who name their kid King.



Yup. I know two grown-up Rexes.


Rex Ryan, NY Jets coach (former)

Know her too (probably, how many kids have that name?)! Super cute kid. I hope it's a family name.
