Hey. I’m the author of Bad Baby Names! Thanks for posting this here and I definitely would love to hear from you and your readers. Thanks again.
You’re welcome. Best of luck with the book.
Reprobatus? It sounds like a good name for a character in a book that’s a nasty old man. I’ll take Starlight over that stinker any day!
