| There is a tendency to tag the names in association with historical characters or linguistic adjectives. "Ivan (the Terrible)" or "Igor (the hunchback lab ghoul)" bring sinister images to mind. I cringed when I saw the name Igor on this year's list of hurricane names. And Gaston could earn the tag "Gaston the Ghastly". The name Otto does not project any soft breeze images either. Otto ought to stay away. |
