It’s the lighter side of Anthroponymy, the study of names: Short names, Long names, Last-names-first, First-names-last, Rhyming, Repeating, Romantic, Intoxicating, Fashionable, Sporty, Mildly Offensive, downright Sick, and many more. The Game of the Name puts hundreds of famous people in their places, and invites you to play along. In 44 chapter/lists, the juxtaposition of names from far-flung corners of our culture creates poetry, filled with double-meanings and sound-alike puns. The spectacular variety of what people are named is unleashed for your consideration and amusement. Note: The Game of the Name is too funny to be read in one sitting. Instead, keep it handy for an occasional one-chapter chuckle. And for more than one laugh, read it out loud.
