Kids Named Fraser And Turnbull



Occasionally
kids are named after leaders -
Washington, I cite.

There's no other George
The Fourth I'll bet; and doubt there
could be a Shorten.

Morrison sounds fine -
but could you? She could say she
was named after Jim.

Rudd said 'sorry', so,
in time, even Ruddy. Keat-
ing-Hawke: with hyphen.

Howard once was rife,
but now has been probably
done in by Johnny.

Abbott would be off.
Guillard was called Ju-liar.
There's only one Gough?
