Wouldn't it be funny if Jimmy named her something awful like the Gorgeous Great Girl? The scene could go something like this:
PERRY: What's her name?
CLARK: Uh... I don't know. She didn't say.
PERRY: We've got to call her something.
JIMMY: Well, she's gorgeous and she's great and she's a girl.
PERRY: <<channeling J. Jonas Jameson>> I love it! Okay, Kent, write it up. Gorgeous Great Girl saved Earth from giant asteroid!
Therefore, Clark gets accredited for the awful name. The name, therefore, is a roadblock for GGG and Clark (and for Lois and Clark). Clark's annoyed that Lois gets all the Great Girl exclusives. And Lois is annoyed that Clark gets all the Superman exclusives. Meanwhile, Great Girl and Superman meet secretly in the clouds above Metropolis. So, Great Girl and Superman hook up, and Lois and Clark have animosity for one another.  [/b]I thought of a way for Clark to name her "Wonder Woman." Clark finds himself starstruck (which we KNOW would happen. Clark: *stuttering* She's Su... (stops himself, realizing he would be essentially naming this new woman either his sister or his wife with that name and continues more slowly) She's.... a wonder.
CLARK: No. I'm just worried I'm a jinx.
JONATHAN: A jinx?
CLARK: Yeah. Let's face it, ever since she's known me, Lois's been kidnapped, frozen, pushed off buildings, almost stabbed, poisoned, buried alive and who knows what else, and it's all because of me.
