Welcome to Good Mythical More. We are fully committed to this more. I just want you to know that. Even though we’re only half present, that’s just the way it has to be. Well I’m half committed and you’re half committed so that means together we are… 100 percent. Fully committed. That’s right, 100%. And we are gonna go through all of the states in the US of A and see which ones make the best names of people. We’re gonna rank them all. We’re also going to give. $1,000 to the Native American Heritage Association to aid in their mission to help Native American families living on tribal reservations in South Dakota, by… which is a state that might be a good name. By providing basic necessities such as food, clothing, fuel, and medical care, and you can join us in giving at naha-inc.org/donate. Thank you for being your Mythical best! Let’s bring in our board here, um, so we’re going to assess. Uh, each of these, throw, give us one. Let’s start. Let’s just see, and we’ll, we’ll throw it up here. Cause I know, I can think of it immediately. Pennsylvania, horrible. Uh, what about Penny? Yeah, if you call somebody Pennsylvania. Okay, alright. Or you can call them Penn. If you can, if there’s a good nickname, okay, you just saved it for me. I’m gonna put maybe even eleven or twenty. Penny’s a great name. But Pennsy might be what it needs to be. No, you, Pennsylvania, and you call her Penny. Yeah, I like that. Or Penn. Pennsylvania Jones. Penn is a good name for a guy. Penn and Teller. That’s right, that’s right, it exists. Okay, great. All right, oh, here’s a whole stack of them. All right, Ohio. Ohio. Ohio, this is. Ohio Neal. Ohio McLaughlin. It starts to work when you say it with a last name, but without the last name. And also, if you’re like, Ohio, what’s your name? Ohio. Oh hi? Oh hi? It’s very confusing in conversation. You think somebody’s saying oh hi to you. Ohio… Every time you introduce yourself. Not great. Bottom 10, I think. Bottom 20. But it’s weird that I really liked it with the last name though. Lots of states sound really good with the last name. Indiana Jones. Uh huh. Mississippi Mayhem. I don’t know, you know. So that’s why I’m putting it here, not in the final column, which is the worst. Okay. Arizona. You could raise Arizona. It’s a great name. I think it’s a great movie, but I was on a lot of drugs when I watched it. You mean… It was like after my tonsil surgery. Oh, thanks. Thanks for clarifying. – Um, but Arizona… – Arizona is very good. Top 20. Easy. Because then you could be like Ari. Arizona. You don’t even need a nickname. Arizona is a great name. It rolls off the tongue, it’s got a Z in it. It’s a beautiful state. I’m gonna say Arizona’s in our top 10. Yep, I’m feeling that. New Jersey, two words. This is a real bad one. This has got to be so bad. This is a real, real bad one. This is in the worst. And we can move them up and down. Yes, we can do whatever we want to, except fully be on screen. Vermont, Vermont. Vern. Vermont. Vermont. Vermont. Vermont McLaughlin. Kinda like that. Vermont. Vermont. Vermont. Vermont. Vermont. Vermont. Mont. Mont’s good ’cause you got Lamont. – You could have… – Monty. Yeah. If you have a, if you have a son named Lamont and you have a second one, you name him Vermont. Like if you were signing a business deal with somebody and you saw that their actual name was Vermont, – It’s a good middle name. – You’d be like… I feel like I feel good about this. Let’s put it right in the middle because it’s a good middle name. It’s not bad at all. It’s a good middle name. Okay. Dakota is a, is. If not good, overused. Uh, there’s a lot of Dakotas out there. But we gotta keep South. We gotta keep South. And that’s really messing us up. Do we have to keep South? Yeah, yeah. So, cause Carolina… You gotta keep… You’re getting North and South? Because Carolina is a good name. But… But it’s not a state. Dakota is not a state. And that’s the exercise. If they hadn’t divided those states into two, this problem wouldn’t exist. It went from being one of the best to one of the worst. So you gotta use South. Okay, we’re playing by those rules. Wyoming Jackson. Wyoming Harris. – Wyoming… – Can you call him Wyatt? You could call him Wyyo. – That’s a cool name. – Wyyo. Wyoming. Move to your right. Wyoming. Wyyo. I like this. I hated it at first. But I’m picturing like a guy that wears boot cut jeans. Yeah, he does. He can’t be bothered. – I actually think… – Doesn’t have a phone. No, no, no. He’s a marketing executive in Manhattan. Oh, yeah. But… Really big, thick black glasses. Yeah, but so his name is like against type, which is cool. And he always wears like a jacket that goes down to his knees, regardless of the weather. He’s wearing a duster. No, not a duster. It’s just a jacket that goes to the knees. So not all the way to the ankles. A trench coat? No, it’s not made out of leather. Can we call him Wyyo? It’s made out of terry cloth, but it’s not a robe. Let’s see, our, our, our marketing executive… We gotta send this one to Wyoming. This is Wyoming’s account. This is weird. I’m gonna go in the middle. Okay, all right. North Carolina. Carolina would have been great, but as we’ve established, North doesn’t do it for you. North is a great name. Actually, North Caroline? North. Do you want to name your kid North after Kanye did it? I don’t know. That’s a good question, Link. But Kim did it as well. Kim did it as well. Big fan. I think it puts it in the middle. Still not great. North, first name, Carolina, middle name. Whoops, I dropped it. I would, how are we gonna? I gotta do this without getting completely on camera. Oh, that’s good, your bottom half of your face is only on. And then go behind the whiteboard, just hide behind the whiteboard. Now go down. There you go, you can do whatever you want now. Okay. All right, Rhett, you gotta stack now. So put that one. Put that one in the middle. Oh. Minnesota. Minnie. Minnie. Minnesota. Minnesota McLaughlin? Oh, wow, that sounds good. Yeah, let’s put that under Arizona. Minnesota. You could also call her soda. North Dakota for all the reasons. But what about the North Carolina? It’s slightly better. But it’s better. But Dakota’s overused, so put it at 31 to 40. Okay. Okay, yeah. Too many Dakotas. Yep. If you’re thinking about naming your kid Dakota, stop. Uh, okay. New Hampshire. Wow. This could be the worst one thus far. You don’t want to name your kid New. Hampshire. You don’t want to. Hampshire is not good by itself. Hamster? What? Your name’s Hamster? Yeah, yeah, yeah. – That’s bad. – This is horrible. This is horrible. Florida. Could be Flo-Rida. Florida. Flo Rida the, the musician? Yeah. Uh, Florida Neal. Florida Neal. Flo, Florida… Florida. Florida is, Florida. Flory. Florida is a, like, if this wasn’t a state, specifically it wasn’t the state of Florida. Right. It would be a great name. Alright, 11 to 20 that. Arkansas. It’s no Arizona, I’ll tell you that. I like it, though. Arkansas McGee. Arkansas McGee. Arkansas Anderson. Arky? Can you call him Ark? You would call him Ark. This is middle of the road for me, but not bad. Ah, I really like Ark. It could be, it could be here. Yeah, let’s do that, let’s do that. You like that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I like Ark as a nickname. Oh, Mississippi. I like Mississippi. Missy. Call her Missy. Call her Missy. Mississippi McLaughlin. Yeah, that’s good. That kid’s gonna do great things. Why don’t you put it in the one to 10? You think so? You seemed really enthusiastic. All right, now you’re up. Tennessee. Hey, we’re about halfway through this more. Maybe we can abandon this staying halfway up. Oh, okay. Well, I was kind of enjoying it. Look at us. We’re fully here. It was getting pretty cumbersome for me. All right, Tennessee already a first name. Uh, you got the country singer Tennessee Williams. Tennessee is really, really good. Tennessee to Tennessee. I think Tennessee might be the best one so far. I like, I, but there’s no, the nickname doesn’t work. So I would put it fourth there. I like Ari, or Ari. Tenny. Tenny. Tenny? Tenny. Doesn’t work. Tenny. Doesn’t work. Tenny. I don’t like it. I hate it. Now you’re moving it down to 11-20 if you don’t watch out. Maine. Maine McLaughlin. Maine Neal. Bad. Maine Jones. I, I, the more I say it, I’m still not losing the fact that it’s a state. Yep. It’s not great. Not a great name. Not good at all. I think it’s better than New Jersey and South Dakota, though. Just while you’re there. Nebraska. Neal. Oh! Nebra. It’s kinda like Debra. Nebra. Yeah. Well, I liked it when it was Nebraska. Debra with an N is what you would have was Nebraska. Brassy. – Isn’t there a… – Brassky. Isn’t there a novel called, like, Looking for Nebraska or something? Oh, that’s Alaska. What about a movie? Isn’t there a movie called Nebraska? There’s a Spru uh, Spruestein. There’s a Springsteen album. Album called Nebraska. What about Brassky? Looking for Nebraska. The follow up to Looking for Alaska. I’m not loving Nebra. Yeah, I think it’s kind of a… No, it’s not that bad. Nebraska… Nebraska on its own is not a bad name. No, it’s not. – But Nebras… – There’s no shortening for it. Nebra’s not great. Montana. Ooh, Monty. Monty. Or Monta. Montana is top ten. Or it could be Tana. Montana McLaughlin? You can call yourself Tana, you can call yourself Monty, you can call yourself Mon. Eh, Mon. You could be Anna. You could be Monty. If you’re Jamaican, this really works. This might be number one so far. I did it. I love that name, Montana. Delaware. Okay, not great. Del is aware that his name isn’t great. Right, yep. Del. Delaware. We’re calling him Del, Delaware. This is not bad. – I think this is an 11 to 20 actually. -Delaware Jenkins. Yeah, Del. Del. – Del works. – Del does. Del the funky homo sapien. Rhode Island. Rhoada, Rhoadie. Rhode. The island is really the hard part. That is, isn’t it? Yeah. Here’s my child Island. Which I guarantee you people have named their kids Island. Isla. Isla’s a good shortening of Island. This the road and the island. And then. Rhode. Rhode is a good… First name, Isla…de it’s weird. This is the problem though. If you think about this in practicality, you name somebody Montana, you’re like, oh that’s a cool name. You name a kid Rhode Island. – It’s like… – It’s pretty much about you. It’s so on the nose. It’s about the parent at that point. It’s so on the nose. Like naming your kid Lando. It’s like, okay, it says more about the parent than the child. Virginia. Okay, well this is the name of a, of a, of one of our employees. This is the official name… Oh, yeah? of Jenna. That’s right. It seems like that was the news to you. Okay. No, I remember that now. Virginia. I know her last name, too. I think Virginia might be… Played out. Not played out. I think it is a super, super solid name. Not enough people are named Virginia. What about Virgie for short? Virgie. You’ve got Jenna. – You got Jienie, I don’t know. – Genia? Virgin? I think this might be number one. Yeah, but it’s not… It’s too obvious. There’s that name. Virginia, what’s that name? What’s that song? Meet Virginia. Meet Virginia. All right, your stack, homie. I don’t like it being number one, because it’s too obvious. Texas. Texas. Texas… This thing’s too in your face. Texas McLaughlin, like, what are you trying to prove? You know what I’m saying? – Texas is a state that feels… – Texas Titchener. Feels too good about itself already. Yeah. Yeah. Seems too prideful. Oh, wow. We really, yeah. Sorry, Texas. All right. Georgia. Georgia. Oh. Existing name. Whoa, that’s a good name. To me, this is like Virginia. I mean, of course. Hold on, but there’s a reason that it’s risen to the top. Georgia is a great name. There’s a reason why the state is named Georgia, because it was a name first. If we had had a little girl, we would have named her Georgia. That was really high on the list. Really? Mm hmm. Yeah. It’s a good name. It’s a great name. But it was a name before it was a state. How do you know these things? Uh, you know, King George? Uh, yeah, it was named after George. That’s why I want to put Virginia and Georgia down at the bottom. Well, no, it’s a state that was, the name was so good, they named the state after it. It doesn’t have to be number one, but it’s definitely in the top ten. I’m looking for something a little surprising to be number one. Like Iowa? Iowa. Iowa. Iowa. Iowa. Iowa. Iowa. I don’t like this. I don’t… Iowa. Iowa. Iowa. There’s too many vowels. And W almost feels like a vowel. Middle name could be sk. And then the last name? Sk. I thought it was sk and then ah. You said sk. Alright, put that low. I don’t hate it though. I don’t absolutely hate it. Wisconsin. Wiss is like Wes, but with an I. Yeah. Wiss! He hated that. Alaska. Alaska. Baked Alaska. Alaska… Alaska! Alley. Alla. – It wouldn’t be… – You don’t have to maintain the spelling. It could be Alley. Alas? I like that one, but I’m thinking it’s 11 to 20. Alabama. Great name. Alabama. Again, it’s used quite a bit. – Alabama. – That could also be Allie. Alabama is a great name. Alabama. Alabama? I think we gotta organize these. Let’s wait. Alright. New Mexico. New Mexico. I mean, that just doesn’t work. It doesn’t. Colorado. Color. Addo. Co Co Cole? Coley Cole. Cole? Colorado. Color Co Colora… Uh, Colorado. Doe. Colorado Jenkins. Rad. Colorado Smith. It sounds good if it’s like somebody from history. Hawaii. Hawaii. It’s really hard to separate from the state. – If you call yourself Hawaii… – Hawaii Neal. I’m trying to come up with a good last name that goes Hawaii Jones, Hawaii… Hawaii Henderson. Hawaii Hawaii and the Hendersons. I don’t like this. This isn’t working for us. Yeah, that’s a tough one. It’s a little too specific. Utah. Utah Utah Utah man. Utah man. Utah. Utah. You don’t need to have a nickname for a two syllable. Utah is pretty good. Utah. Utah. It’s a really good last name. But is it… Then if you go to the south, they call you Utah. Like, we called it Utah when we were… Utah. Utah? Yeah, I’m tall. You tall? I like it, though. I like it as a first name and a last name. It’s tough when you’ve got a name that’s pronounced very differently in different parts of the… Utah, Utah. Well then we’ll just put. I think middle of the road. I think it needs to go to the left, but I’ll put it in the middle. All right, so then we’ve got Oregon. Oregon, not, this isn’t working for me. It sounds like Organ. Yeah, this is not good. Pretty bad. This is not good. Pretty bad. We got a pretty good distribution here. Illinois. Illinois. Illy. Illy. Illinois. You got the whole nois part. Everybody gets it wrong. Lots can go wrong with that. I don’t hate it, but I don’t love it. South Carolina. No one’s been named South. Nope. It doesn’t work. Connie. Connecticut? Connecticut? Kenderson. I’m in the middle with that one. Connecticut Coltrane. Connecticut Coltrane. Connie Coltrane. I like that. Hits your, hits your list here. Okay, West Virginia. Not as good as Virginia. The West is a real problem. You think the West is a problem? But, Northwest. What do you mean Northwest? Isn’t the name Northwest? Kanye West? Yes, but, West. West. Ah, okay. – I’m fine. – It’s pretty low. I’m fine with it being that low. California. Cali. Cali. Mm-Hmm. – I’ll go on the 11 to 20. – Pretty good. Oh really? It’s four syllables though. That’s a lot. Indiana made famous. Yep. It’s gotta go in the top. By the Jones. We’ll reorder. We got, we gotta Are these, is this the last stack? Maryland Mary? Maryland McLaughlin. Maryland is already a good name. If something has been proven as a good name, it’s gotta be in the top 20. Just push these up. Put it down there. All right, you got two more. Three more. Missouri. Missouri Miss We’re back to Missy? Missouri, Missouri. Missouri. Missouri. Misery. Missouri. Oh. – All right, your last two. – Not great. Louisiana. Louisiana Neal. That could have been another L name for you. But how would you shorten it? There’s Anna. Lots of people named Louisiana. Louise. Louise. Anna. Uh, but I’m 11 to 20 because I don’t love the word Louise. Nevada. Nevy. Nev Campbell. Neva. Nev is a good short. I like this. I like that. All right, let’s put it in the top. Okay. Oh, I meant in the top column. But we can put it at the top of the second column. Idaho. Yeah, you are. Ho. Ida. Ida. Ida Mae. Ida Lee. Uh. Ida Betty. Ida’s not bad. Idaho. Ida. Takes some of the sheen off of it. It kinda takes a lot of the sheen off of it. New York. We can’t be working with New. No, you put New in there, it’s not a good name. Washington. Washy. Wash. Warsh. Warsh. Washy. Washy Neal. Washington McLaughlin. It’s a little too stiff and historical. Okay, all right. Oklahoma. Oky. Oklahoma. Oak… Oak? But you would need an A. It’s hard to shorten, but Oklahoma as a full name is very pretty to say. Okay. I’m even getting some fidelity in it here. All right, down to the last four. Michigan. Mitch. Mitch. Mitch without the T. Michigan. It’s Michigan. He’s back. I don’t like this. This isn’t working. Michigan. Michigan McLaughlin? Michigan McLaughlin. I don’t think so. – You can’t… – Middle of the road. Middle of the road. Middle, middle, middle. Massachusetts. Mass… Uh… Chu. Chu doesn’t work. Chu. Chu, chu. Massachusetts. Uh, this is tough. There’s not a lot of ways to shorten that. I like it better than Washington. Okay. Oh, gosh. Oh, no. I’m doing that. Washington is now the best of the worst. And… Kentucky and Kansas. Ken, Tucky. Ken, Ken. Kansas is a pretty good name. It’s short. You don’t need to shorten. You can call her Candy. Oh, you can call her Candy. All right, I like that. Yep, that’s, was this maybe? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yep. Kentucky. I think Kansas may be in the top 10. Yeah, I agree. Kentucky, Kentucky, Kentucky. Let’s just. So we’ll, so. Kentucky Fried Chicken. What do you think is the best one? Kentucky Lecky. We’ve kind of gotten them into these categories. – I kind of feel like we need… – I really like Montana. I really like Arizona. – I really like Alabama. – I don’t think Indiana should be the top. I like Alabama and Georgia up here at the top two. I don’t know. There’s something about maybe Arizona because we need a few more Arizonas. Because Georgia and Alabama are pretty common. Ari, Virgie, Monty, Georgia, Alabama, Minnie… You’ll notice the thing that a lot of the top six names have something in common. They end in an A. They end in an A. That’s always good. Alright, name your people this. We did it. Come on, Josh! Sorry, I’ve only done powerlifting competitively. Ooh, that was close! It got me in, Stephen, it got me in the hole. It got me, and I’m talking.
