    <p>Has anyone watched that freakonomics doco segment on baby names? Pretty good watch. Basically, it's not the retarded name that gets you in trouble, it's the upbringing by parents stupid enough to call you that, which does the damage.</p>

    <p>They did a case study of two kids, one who was called Winner and the other who was called Loser to see who who would turn out worse.</p>
