My advice (which you are unable to ignore*) on matters like this is not to take other people's advice (including mine). Uh, where were we? Well, I think Angi Turnpaugh's an excellent name, and I wouldn't think you would ever suffer from being labelled "unprofessional" as a result of it. (* Think about it.)
