lilspeak

A dialect of written slang used by littles, mostly on chat and message boards. Spelling is extremely phonetic, reflects child-like speech impediments, and may be otherwise incorrect. Grammar is extremely child-like. Comments frequently reflect child-like miscomprehension of others' comments.

Come to think of it, that describes ebonics, too.

Elián González

A little, five-year-old Cuban boy who made headlines in 1999 by surviving the trip to Florida from Cuba in an inner tube. His mother died to get him to Florida, but she made the mistake of naming him a name that sounded far too much like the word, alien in English, and having him fathered by a man who would have nothing to do with Elián until being Elián's father was suddenly very patriotic.

If Elián González wasn't named a name that sounds like alien in English, maybe the feds wouldn't have been so obsessed with sending him home, or scared him into going back to Cuba by shoving an assault rifle in his face.

Chippy

A name given to a disoriented sea lion that swam up the California Aquesuct almost as far as Los Banos.

Chippy was named after CHiPs by the CHiPs who were wondering what the heck to do with a sea lion in the desert-like west side of San Joaquin Valley, which is quite fitting since the CHiPs around Los Banos get disoriented too. So watch out for them on I-5, or they'll run you over!
