What name would you steal, if you could?

What name would you steal, if you could?

We all know you’re not a namenapper.

You’d never steal somebody else’s baby name, whether it’s a friend, a family member, or even (maybe especially) a celebrity who happened to pick a really amazing name.

Unless….

Unless you were answering Nameberry’s question of the week, and it were all theoretical, and you knew you weren’t going to baby name jail for it.  Or going to have to face the anger of the erson whose name you stole or the disapproval of everyone you know along with lots of virtual friends on the Nameberry message boards.

So, if you had complete immunity, whose name would you nap — either for a child or to rename yourself — and why?
