Posted by Jonny Diamond on Mon, Aug 30, 2010 at 3:19 PM

Two baby boy baboons were recently born at the Brooklyn Zoo, to mothers Kaia and Rebecca, respectively, and until September 21st, you have a chance to suggest what their names should be. These guys are both Hamadryas baboons, the first such monkeys to be born at the zoo in six years. Ok, let’s get down to business and name some baboons:

Sacco and Vanzetti
Bob and Doug
Billy Burg and Carroll Gardens
Pete Nice and MC Serch
Fulton and Nostrand
Brooks and Lynn
Hardcastle and McCormick
Todd P and Larry Tee
George and Kramer
Gersh Kuntzman and Marty Markowitz
