Ralph
Ralph, like barfing. Ralph, like RALF, not like RAFE, which so many name nerds are into now. I like Ralph because it's just a plain old dorky name. It's as un-classy as you get without being trashy or made up. It's just a good, solid, plain-jane kind of name. Ralphie as the diminutive form is adorable on a little boy!
