Did they fire P.C. Towers?
You've forgotten about Lakshmi Singh.
Something tells me you spellchecked that one, ricksterb.
Maybe I need to open it up to beyond 5 then to also allow for Nina Totenburg and David Beancooli.
Aha! I win. No spell check for me. I have a friend who I visited in Boston who had a roommate named Lakshmi. It's weird though. I've had a three year obsession with memorizing as many NPR correspondents as possible, but I have no idea why. Anyhow my all time favorite name (though this one really isn't that strange or funny) is Desiree Fontaine, an old traffic reporter for WYPR.
@Ricksterb, Kudos for knowing an actual person with an NPR name. As for your Desiree nomination, I am not sure I want to include her in my extended top NPR name list as I also remembered Tavis Smiley last night. I don't think Fontaine really cuts the mustard.
Stay tuned for my Top 5 (or 10) Infamous MiddleEasterner names.
