Tobias and Phobias


Well that's just taking name rhyming a bit too far. There's a comic about name rhyming in the Pickles comic - Pearl considered marrying Earl and naming their kids Merle, Burl, and such, Oh, here it is.
I'm all for naming your kids on a theme, but maybe don't use non-name words to make the theme work. Maybe just pick a new theme.
Now the question is, how do they pronounce Phobias' name? I would think they make it fit the cadence of Tobias rather than pronouncing it the correct way. Which would just be annoying for the entirety of that child's life.
