Little Gordon on the way

Unlike Jimmie Johnson, his daredevil golfing teammate and protege, Jeff Gordon has been keeping himself busy in other ways this offseason. Although, this sounds like it actually happened before the season ended.
On Wednesday, Gordon announced that wife Ingrid Vandebosch is pregnant.
“We’re obviously very excited,� Gordon said in a statement that appeared on www.jeffgordon.com. “Christmas came early for us this year. This is a very special gift for us – one that we’re both looking forward to. The due date is early July, and Ingrid and I can’t wait to be parents. We’ve known for a little while, but we couldn’t wait any longer to share the good news with our friends and fans.�
So how about some names:
For boys:
1. Chase. It has to be the top pick. Although it would be nice if Jeff Gordon won a Chase before naming a child Chase.
2. Slick. This may be a better name for a poker player's son than a race car driver's son.
3. Red. Green just isn't a name you want, especially in third grade. And yellow would be downright cruel. There was an Irwindale Speedway driver who once had a cat named Checkers. While that's a fine name for an animal, a child would have some serious self-esteem issues with such a moniker.
For girls:
1. Monte. A girl named Monte would be original and cute. Or lead to visions of fat, Scottish golfers.
2. Carla. It's just Carlo without the O.
3. Trixie. If for no other reason than Trixie was Speed Racer's girlfriend.
If anything, it's safe bet the baby, if it's a girl, won't be named Brooke. And if there are any more golf cart accidents, Jimmie may be crossed off the list too.
