What did you (or would you!) name your kids, and why?

[Dannyalcatraz]

Its good to spread the love!

Hey...any good ones you've heard in Okinawa? Names for obscure sushi types, perhaps?

I want my child to have his own identity, so I think thats out.

I agree.

There was some weight pressed from my in laws that we name out male off spring after me, but I laughed at that. When my wife was given the same suggestion she (without knowing my answer) laughed and said- "<Harmon> wouldn't do that to his son. Let the kid make his own name," heavy with the paraphrasing.

As it is should we have a son his intials will be the same as my Father's- but that was just because we liked the names and they lined up that way.

Kid's names

Little Lucy Grace! Born December 10th. The best gift ever for a year that has arguably been the worst ever.

Lucy because it's a somewhat uncommon (these days) yet pretty name. Grace for my wife's Granma.

Happy Holidays everyone.

i used Grace for my baby's middle name too. well, my wife picked it out, but i liked it.

One I won't be using: Azeroth.

Simply passe.

 

[BOZ]

Astaroth instead?

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Possibly- HP Lovecraft is much cooler than World of Warcraft. (Of course, if someone creates World of Lovecraft...) Perhaps partnered with the name of one of his ancestors?

Hmmmm...Astaroth Joseph?

My kids names are pretty routine. My daughter is named after my wife's favorite cousin who died of cancer at a very young age. For my son we reversed my first and middle names.

One of my friends named his daughter Kitiara, for the DragonLance character, and his son Logan, for the X-Men character.

 

[BOZ]

i always liked the name Kitiara, and since i'm not a fan of the DL books (don't dislike them, just never got around to reading them), i might just use it anyway.
