Strange names are nothing new. After 20+ years in the Justice System,
I've noted that a very high number of inmates have names that probably
got them beat up every day in school, probably setting them on the
course to being asocial. Johnny Cash may have thought that naming a boy
"Sue," for instance, would make him tough, but if you remember the song,
Sue (like his father) was a borderling sociopath.
It's only the rare exceptions that take a bad name and still do well
with it.

Good point, but I just want to clarify that Johnny Cash didn't write
that song, Shel Silverstein wrote it.
