And somebody else recommended:

>Oscar, after Oscar Meyer.

I mentioned this to a couple of Congressional staffers; both got

is named Oscar for the exact same reason (get it, Ham, Oscar Meyer???).

However, one staffer told me that the best name came from a newspaper
who called them: "Brilliant Condoms".
