A good macro for Bard Inspiration?

I was wondering (for those that know how to make macros) if anyone had something that would add some flavour for giving Bard's Inspiration to another player. So, I could click the macro, grab a player from a drop down menu, and then it outputs a short description of the skill and whom it is given to. I've never played a Bard before and I thought it would be neat little flourish.

For a simple drop down you can use the emotecommand and a roll query . /me gives Bardic Inspiration to ?{whom?|Player1|Player2|Player3}. Bardic Inspiration does things. For more style you could use a template . &{template:default} {{name=Bardic Inspiration}} {{jane=gives Bardic Inspiration to ?{whom?|Player1|Player2|Player3}.}} {{effect=Bardic Inspiration does things.}} For even more style you could use a script like powercards. You can get fancy if you play on maps with tokens, where you can select the target, give it a statusicon and play a visual effect and a sound effect when giving inspiration - all with less clicks than the simple dropdown needs.
This is fantastic! Thanks! Is there any way to make the selected name (player 1, player 2, etc.) on the second one (using template) output in bold?

{{jane=gives Bardic Inspiration to** ?{whom?|Player1|Player2|Player3}.**}} Should work.
Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks Keith! :D

You can use a lot of markup language in macros and roll templates. *italic*, **bold**, ***bold italic***, [link](URL). That (URL) can even be used to display an in-line image.
My brain says I've read that somewhere, but forgot about it. Thanks again!
