So, let me see if I got this straight. Because she keeps her house clean...that means she isn't sponging off the taxpayers??? Her and the father aren't even married? Oy Vey!
I like one of the comments below the article too.."what was she smoking when she named those kids?" |

Even Artemis, Eli, and Malachai are traditional names, if less popular. But the others - that's just somebody looking for attention. And it ain't the kids.

Yeah, and a kid named Rogue isn't going to give anyone a bit of trouble . . . .
Just name the kid Delinquent and get it over with . . . . |

A trio of them look to be from Greek mythology. Artemis, huntress and goddess of the moon; Echo, disappeared except for her voice; Morpheus, god of dreams.
But there's a Frodo in there, too. Obscure other Greek mythology for this bearer of the brood: Momus - Greek god of ridicule. |

While not related to the story, back in the 1950s when the first Mercury launched satellites went up, names like Oribt and Capsule were stuck on some poor kids.

Sarah was telling me about some of the kids she'd heard about in South Korea. They take *American* names. One kid was named *Spot*. Another kid took the name *Obama*. When the teacher told him that name was not American, an argument ensued, with the kid saying that since he was the president, that it was an American name!
