1. Jackie Lyden
2. Jamie Tarabay. Love, LOVE her Aussie drawl. Sure helps all that horrible Iraq news go down easier.

/Great/ topic, I often remark to my friends how unusual NPR names tend to be.

I’ll add:

* Felix Contreras
* Lourdes Garcia-Navarro
* Ina Jaffe
* Lakshmi Singh

The one that takes the cake, though, is:

* Doualy Xaykaothao
