    I'm surprised we haven't seen more people use punctuation marks. I know the Le-a stories. But for as somewhat common as that is, relatively speaking, I don't see why more punctuation marks aren't used.

    Something like "Ma,k" pronounced Macomik or "Z' ,zy Jones" pronounced Zapastrof Comazy Jones .

    There's actually a trend of naming kids things our grandparents may have been named. I know a woman who just named her daughter Louise.
