The latest Master Unslicker is as yet unnamed.
This weekends task is to find a suitably Capitalist sounding name for the little chap.
I am informed that Mrs Unslicker will judge the entries, so as many as possible please as she rarely glances at CUs predictions, preferring Marjorie Orr's page for her market investments.
I offer up:
Lloyd
Adam
Bernie
Chase
Lehman
and, of course, Fred.

Based on all time achievement, it would have to be John, as in Rockefeller.
ReplyDeleteMy bias is showing, but William seems to have done a certain Mr Gates some service too.
William
ReplyDeleteFriedrich/Fred
(not the same William that Croydonian suggests!)
ReplyDeleteWhat about the greatest capitalist of all time.
ReplyDeleteThe one who abolished boom and bust.
Gordon!
Mervyn ?
ReplyDeleteAyn
ReplyDelete“Ayn” rhymes with “mine”.
Gresham "Bubbles" Unslicker
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I hope mum and baby are doing well. "A good Capitalist Name...."?
ReplyDeleteWell, Rich comes to mind, or Alex or Clive.
On a bit more of an exotic curve, Laffer or Lorenz.
On the other hand, with older siblings, this little one could be a Bear and he will most certainly have to be Hardy.
NO
ReplyDeletePick a nice name like Ian/Ivan/Euan/Sean/John/Juan
Arnold Nesbitt (Crash of 1772).
ReplyDeleteJohn Law (Banque Royale).
Charles Ponzi.
What about Ive Madeoffwithit.
ReplyDeleteCongrats and all that. How about Winston?
ReplyDeleteMaster City Unslicker III
ReplyDeleteGood capitalists always have to be the third...
You'll have to call him after two great economists. I offer you the choice - either Maynard Friedman Unslicker, or Milton Keynes Unslicker.
ReplyDeleteAny name you choose will be zedded, so bear it in mind:
ReplyDeleteLorenzo Carnegie - Lozza Cozzer
Maynard Friedman - Mozza Frozzer
Bradley Bingley - Bizza Brazzer
Ricardo Winston - Rizza Wizzer
Alex becomes Lezza, so that's definitely out.
What about James? Even though you'll have to endure a period of Jazza Mazzer, James Matthew is a classy name and will work nicely for the 100 years when he isn't a child.
Congrazzers!
Dearieme snuck in one of my favourite jokes.
ReplyDeleteBut who are the best capitalists around today? Richard (Branson), Philip (Green), William (Gates) and Steven (Jobs). All nice boring MOR names, you can't go wrong with any of those.
Rothschild unslicker
ReplyDeleteWhat about Silvio.
ReplyDeleteThat's a spicy a meatball
Peston
ReplyDeleteAuric.
ReplyDeletethanks for al of these, still negotiating with MRS Unslicker.
ReplyDeleteCurrently still 'baby' Unslicker.
How about Alexander, Christopher or Felix...?
ReplyDeleteOr the name of one of literature's best known teddy-bears: Aloysius...?
