Amazon is a lousy name for a baby

Parents of an Oregon newborn showed their indie spirit when they named the boy after their favorite book store (and one of ours too) Powell's. Shelf Awareness reports
"On October 3, Audrey DeKam and Kevin DeKam became the proud parents of Powell Finley DeKam, an 8 lb., 13 ounce boy who was named in honor of Powell's Books, Portland, Ore."
Now, don't all you expectant parents rule out "University" as a baby name. It has a sort of intellectual distinction!

    How about "Magus" or "Elliot"?
