Spot on! My daughter Kalinda has a "different" "weird" name since she isn't a Caitlin, Kaylee, Ashley or whatever. My unborn daughter's name will be Anjali. Both names are Sanskrit in origin and have special meanings to me. I think different names give variety, and variety is the spice of life.

When I was a kid, we had a dog named Debbie. My brother named it after the girl he had a crush on in fifth grade when we got the dog.

Call me crazy but Crew doesn't sound that bad to me. But then again I have a cousin that named his boy Pollack so Crew sounds good.
