Going, and I think it's completely awesome. I personally wouldn't use it as a first name but I think it's one of those really cool last names. Ditto that for a friend of mine whose is Fair; I think the name has a beautiful sound to it, meaning aside or taken into account, and that it would actually make a very nice first name.

Speaking of being awesome I think my surname is, too, even though it's not a gerund. :-P I had thought for ages that I'd give a child my last name as a first name, but I'm far more inclined to pass along my last name as part of its last name, so it would be exceedingly redundant.

Well! Most of that is irrelevant to your message, but that's my contribution anyway. :-)

It’s all the same. What the hell good to you
is your native land after you’re dead? Whose
native land is it after you’re dead?
