Okay, so I have heard the name Shepherd for a boy, but Stanley for a girl???? Common WTF!!!!
Oh, and don't even start me on Sunshine???
Are we running out of character ideas here or what?
Different names for certain, but to each their own. I actually thought Sunshine was the best of the bunch. Although, that's probably just my inner hippie talking.
shareI think Shepard was a nod to astronaut Alan Shepard. I don't know about the other kids names.
shareYeah, I thought the same thing.
I asked the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.
Stanley Kubrick, maybe? Moon landing hoax theorists think he produced the footage of the moon walks.
I once had a female student in middle school named Stanley. I also remember a car once called the Stanley Rocket. I don't know if that plays a part as well. I also think that the names of the kids, all somehow related to space or space travel, show how Charles is the one who "runs" the family. It also drives home even further how much space travel is ingrained in his dream (or obsession) with going into orbit. Just a thought.
shareOh now that's too funny!
shareThat isn't ironic, but it is most certainly odd.

Obama's mother's name was stanley...stanley ann. Named after her father.
My ex-wife's mother was named Sunshine. However that's the only person I've ever heard named Sunshine...
Razor lights you'll bring and all to prove you're on the move and vanishing.
Yeah rednecks tend to give their kids stupid names, nothing unusual.
