HelpRe: Would this work in real life?

The concept, yes, if the initials actually could reasonably make another name. Personally, I think that honouring "everybody" that way sort of waters it down to not really honouring anybody.

I remember watching this episode when I was 10 years old or so and thinking it was the coolest idea ever and I decided I would use it one day. 20 years passed and I had my first child, this episode long forgotten, and other names were more important.
I never truly forgot it, though, and now I have a chance to use it, and with a name I love for other reasons, but not one I'd just use for the sake of using it.

I saw you mentioned Marle down below. What names/connections is it built from?

Max (my grandfather that raised me)
Ann (my cousins middle name)
Ricky (David's dad)
Luke (David's brother)
Elsie (my grandmother that raised me)
Yissy (Huck's pronunciation of Lissy, David's step mom and a wonderful influence in our lives now)
Originally, Lissy would have been the "L", but right now we love the way Huck pronounces some of his "L's" Some are y's and some are w's. He yikes Yissy and wuvs Wuke, for example. I know it's silly, but I think it will be a cute memory years from now that we included Yissy.
