Ok, as I listened to your podcast today I think you might have subconsciously already named your wheel. Think about it, you referred to “Frank” as in Frank Sinatra. I think Frank might be the right name, look at all the evidence.
1. He’s smooth
2. He makes you swoon
3. He’s handsome
4. He makes you fall in love with him
5. you can’t stop thinking about the next time you will be with him.
It’s a no-brainer I think Frank suits him.
Your wheel is so beautiful! Congrats!
