] Smith Barney. Quite a few current and former employees at the firms submitted their own suggestions. And who could resist giving the contest a whirl?

Voting ends Friday at Midnight Eastern, and the winner will receive one of our last remaining freebies, a CNBC cap found discarded in the corner after recent corporate cutbacks.
