Re: Chartreuse and other color names
I like the color chartreuse but not for a name. I also just now discovered that it's very tricky to type, I botched it up twice before I had it spelled correctly. lol
Teal might work. When I was a lot younger I kind of thought Silver was a cool name, but not so much anymore, unless you're talking about a horse. lolBefore you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!

I girl I knew growing up had a horse named Silver. He was speckled and liked to nibble on people.
I once read about ... I believe it was the first auto accident fatality in Hawaii of the 21st century. The man who died was named Hye Ho Silva.I suspect the name Silver for horses got to be especially popular due to the Lone Ranger's horse being named it.A horse that likes to nibble at people does not make me feel warm and fuzzy toward horses. I like horses in theory but I have never really trusted anything that big and with such big teeth and which always seems to make "playful" nipping/nibbling motions in the general area of my jugular vein.
