Marvin has been neglected for so long that it's hard to believe that it has windswept Welsh roots. It also has some strong namesakes going for it--singer Marvin Gaye, composer Marvin Hamlisch and boxer Marvin Hagler, is the real name of both Neil Simon and Meatloaf--not to mention Marvin Gardens on MOnopoly.

Marvin has also made appearances on "The Simpsons," "Weeds" and "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"--and was recently bestowed on the baby in "How I Met Your Mother."
