Hourglass Challenge

I've never written anything before. And I can't believe I'm actually posting this here. Even the feedback is awesome.

Just an idea I had. An idea in exactly 100 words.

Religious Experiences or What's in a Name

Barbara and Damian looked on proudly as the priest drew a wet cross on their son's forehead. ‘I name this child Stanley Raymond...’ The baby sobbed bitterly.

*******

Stella stood beside him, a fairy princess in tulle and lace. ‘Do you, Stanley Raymond Kowalski, take this woman...?’ He cringed, hearing muffled sniggering behind him. Christ, he would never live this down.

*******

Weak sunlight filtered into the dark tomb. ‘Your name is Stanley Kowalski?’ the nutjob he’d been partnered with asked incredulously. He turned round angrily. ‘Look, my dad...’

*******

‘Ray, Ray, Ray, Ray...Ray’, moaned Fraser as he spiralled to orgasm. Ray smiled.

You're lying. You must be.
Anyway, I love this -- it's so spare and cool, and made me grin as Fraser proves he's perfect for RAY, not Stanley, Kowalski.
More, please!
