    Some friends of mine named their daughter Zarabeth.

    And an older woman I used to work with has a son named Kirk. Her and her husband were fans of the show when it originally aired.

    I tried to name my parents' cat T'Pring, but they couldn't pronounce it.

    The name would have totally nailed her personality, tho. :D

    My wife's best friend named her daughter after the android Rayna (but with a different spelling--didn't realize it when signing all the paperwork and didn't care enough to change it afterward).

    Our youngest daughter, Natasha Troi. Marina Sirtis wrote a very nice personalized inscription on a signed photo for her. Haven't seen Denise Crosby, yet.

    I certainly hope all these pets named "Tribble" have been fixed! :)

    A colleague in my company is named Nechele, after Nichele Nichols. I don't know why her Mom changed the spelling.

    We once had a parakeet that we named K'heyleyr.
