A Clarification... Read this first!
On the: They do..
Put what you think the person who do or say after you told them what you thought about the kid's name. Would they smile and think you're being sincere? Would they go, "Hpmf!" and storm off, dragging their forsaken child behind by the wrist? Be creative and funny!
Example:
This is my daughter, Neylasha.
You say: "Oh, that's a very unique name!"
You think: "What the hell?"
They do: "Unique? What exactly do you mean by 'unique?'"

Not sure what you meant for this game, but here's my lame attempt to be funny. Fine, don't laugh.
This is my son, Hampton.
You say: Is that a family name?
You think: Ham?
They do: Frowning. "No, it's for Hampton Inn, where he was conceived!"
These are my twins, Randy and Mandy.
You say: Aw, how cute.. rhyming names.
You think: Randy, oh my.
They say: Of course! I'd never be able to tell them apart if I gave them the same name.
This is my daughter, Hilda.
You say: Hildegarde? Lovely.
You think: Brunhilda; Broom Hilda the cartoon witch.
They say: No, just Hilda. We thought she would be safer if no one ever thought she was young or attractive!
This is my son, Rex.
You say: Rex, interesting; is that short for something?
You think: Drippy guys rexing on roller skates in the seventies.
They say: No, it's after my first doggie.
This is my daughter, Gertrude.
You say: Trudie?
You think: Whoa, dated.
They say: No, Gertie. You don't really think I'd call my daughter Trudie! That's hideous!
This is my son, Winston.
You say: Oh, like Winston Churchill?
You think: Like Winston the town, or Winston cigarettes..
They say: Who's that? It's for the cigarettes.
