Pet Raccoon names?

Ok my best friend wants to get 2 raccoons. They've been doing a lot of research and I guess they've found out that it's legal here. I still don't think she should get them but her and her family have a lot of pets and I guess she really wants one. I have no hope of talking her out of it so anyways she's looking for names for them. They don't know if the raccoons are male or female.
Please don't tell me they aren't good pets because it's not me getting them. I don't even think they should get them. But please suggest some names.
Answers:
If they are trying to CATCH two raccoons, what they are doing is ILLEGAL! You can not capture a wild animal and keep it as a pet. If raccoons are legal as pets where your friends live, they need to PURCHASE them from a reliable breeder.
Even wildlife rehabilitators who only keep wild animals until they are healthy enough to be released need state and federal permits to keep the animals. Same goes for bird banders, who only have the birds in their possession for a matter of minutes!
Tell your friends they had better do a lot more research!
Rac %26 Coon
scraps, pepper, oscar the grouch, coon, i dont knoe you really have to look into the face of a pet and find what fits its face and nature and characteristics...
Rocco, Roscoe, Roman for a male
Rosie some other R names for them, it seems to fit them.
The Beatles had a song called "Rocky Raccoon"...maybe the other could be named "Adrian" or "Bullwinkle".
Smokey %26 Bandit
How about Eric, Zippy, Elik, Kat, Billy, K.C., Valerie, Daisy, Chippy, Mytchet, or Mayia? That would probably be good.

Also, do your friend know what to feed the racoon/how much space it would take up/etc.? And also, its probably not a good idea to catch an adult racoon, for they will be untrainable. Its better to try and catch the youngest one you can if your going to catch them at all.
miko! or bonnie and clyde!
