    My neighbor is named Homer. He's an idiot and I'm pretty sure having the name has helped that in some way. I could never name my child Homer lol.

    Don't name your child Homer... He's friends might make fun of him when he grow up.

    I wouldn't name him Homer, I would name him something like Henry and have his nickname be Homer.

    Homer was the great greek scribe who wrote the Illiad, specifically the Odyssey one of the greatest stories in history. Why not name him Homer?!

    That was what I was thinking. You have to remember that in 20 years time, what will people remember most, the cartoon, or the Greek poet?

    Yeah, I know. The kid would be doomed, and so is humanity.
