If you cant decide on a name why not have a symbol ~ if it was good enough for Prince when he turned him self into one then you can call it
SYMBOL the Solent Dolphin

The News (Portsmouth)

Appears to have named the Dolphin 'Spinnaker'

www.thenews.co.uk/ViewArticle2.aspx?SectionID=455&ArticleID=1258161


Perhaps the owners of 'The Spinnaker Tower' (tm) and the Dolphin's trainers have syndicated the term 'Spinnaker' (tm) in order to try and recoup some of the building costs of said 'Spinnaker Tower' (tm).
Perhaps all boat owners now have to call their big front floaty sail 'Big front floaty sail' as opposed to 'Spinnaker' (tm)

Hmmm.

I preferred Millenium Tower until it was too late.

What can i say.....

I stand by my views on Trevor the Dolphin as afterall, Zippy was an orange bear thing that was politically incorrect in many ways and fundamentally a bully!!

As for Rodan, if he though he was associated with Mr Stanbury i fear there would be some office politics! This may or may not be Charles, (depends if the IT department are looking!)
