Joy ... on TV

I've been meaning to mention this in a few threads lately, discussing names like Joy, Chastity, Faith, etc. possibly becoming too ironic as a child matures.

Along the same lines, I was watching that new comedy "'Til Death" last week, and the wife's name happens to be Joy. When they introduce themselves to their young, newlywed neighbors, the young women gushes "Oh, how exciting for you, going through life with such a happy name!" (or something along those lines). Joy kind of rolls her eyes at her and blandly replies "Yeah. It's been quite a ride." LOL

Just thought that was a good example. If nothing else, it struck me as pretty funny. ;)
