Like most people, I kind of brush it off when I get told that I look like some one. The Juliet Lewis thing got a bit too frequent to ignore, but in general these things have no basis in reality. However, last week I was introduced to some one and rather than saying hello, he said "You look just like that girl from the Village." Intrigued, I Googled it a couple of days later. I find two things funny. First and most obviously the complete lack of resemblance, though the comparison was rather flattering:


Second, her name is Bryce Dallas Howard. In this brief moment, we will discuss just how bad this name is. Bryce, as we all know, is a name for an eccentric male. Not being fond of gender bending names, but being a huge fan of Bryce, I must protest. Second...DALLAS?!?! What is that, her stripper name? Here they've combined something I love (Bryce) with something I hate (Texas), and that is unforgivable. Third there's the problem of a double name. They're just rather silly. However, if you're going to do one at least make sure it sounds good. Bryce Dallas just sounds awckward.

This inevitably leads into a discussion of the pitfalls of baby naming, and that one's just played out at this point.
