Default Beckham, Barack, or Gordon?

So - if you HAD to choose between the three names mentioned - for yourself or for your son, which would you choose?

I tried to make the poll anonymous and ticked the box for it but apparently I too am poll-posting challenged.

Gordon gets it for me... I don't like Beckham because I'm a Man City fan and I think that Barack is too politically controversial.

Don't like any ot them for names!

Gordon make me think Brown Or that old tune Gordon is a moron.

Beckham has the body but the mind and conversation level of a child.

So I guess Barack at least he is HOT!!
