On a very long drive to Jerusalem today (will I ever NOT get lost in that city?) Orli informed me she would like to marry a man named "Schmell", and then name a daughter "Yafit",
or.....
she'd like to marry someone named "Moron" and then name a daughter "Yifat".
BAH-DAH-PUM!
[***Note: When I told Orli I was going to put this on my blog, she told me she couldn't take credit for this; apparently her friends and her amuse themselves during much of the school day with this stuff.]
And check out Jameel's comment section for more discussion of amusing Israeli names.

Jameel,
read the post, very funny. You used to get a lot of spam in the old days, huh?
Fern,
There is still hope for their kids, no???
I had a math teacher in high school whose last name was Law. He used to joke that he was going to name his son Marshal.
