"Joel is an excellent name. I've been sporting it my twenty years on Earth and have had no troubles. People can try and make fun of Joel saying he "looks like a bowl"... the person saying that only ends up looking stupid. People may say "Joel is a mole who lives in a hole." Frankly that is kinda cool, I'd love tobe elusive and dig tunnels all over the place. All in all, Joel is a strong name that exudes authority and that can't be broken. Joel is always a nice guy. Joel always knows the right thing to say. Joel knows everything! People love Joel. Joel can run really fast! Do the baby a favour; name him Joel.
Sincerely,
Joel est. 1985" Jul. 29, 2005:
