Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard are getting married and expecting a wee one. Kid's going to have more consecutive "a"s in his name than an overturned tractor-trailer carrying Scrabble games.

So, what you are saying is they should name the child Aaron.

Mr. Nordlinger covers this in his Impromptus (http://www.nationalreview.com/impromptus/nordlinger200604130740.asp) today and notices another interesting tidbit.

I saw an item about the marriage of two Hollywood actors: Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard. And I'm thinking, of course: "Wow, what a union of the Double-A's!"

Matter of fact, Maggie Gyllenhaal, in her two names, has three double-letters. If she tacks Sarsgaard on to Gyllenhaal, she'll have four double-letters!

All honor to this pair of Double-A's.
