[QUOTE="Tinner, post: 2615520, member: 19667"] My parents had some very specific naming protocols for their kids. First, none of us were to be named after my father. He had enough teasing as Lester all his life, and felt it should end with him. They wanted all their children to have a Biblical first name. Middle names were fair game, but had to fit with the first name. So we have Deborah Lynn, Mark Alanr. Steven Andrew (me) and Kenneth Scott. Deborah the prophetess/judge, Mark the Apostle, Steven the martyr, and Kenneth, named after the town Kennath. My mother is named after Gone With the Wind actress Vivian Leigh, but spelled Vivien Lee My sister and younger brother both tried the "same letter" method for their kids. My sister's brood consists of Alissabeth Kathryn, Anthony Patrick (the third), and Aidan (I forget). My brother has Kaleb, and Kaden. Their newest - born last month was supposed to be either Konner, Konrad or Konstantin, but when his mom took her first look at him, she pronounced him Seth William, and he's been Seffers ever since. My wife and I have already decided on some names for our hypothetical children. For a girl we chose Winter Rose. Winter for the sound, and her VERY likely coloration (we are both pale-faces) Rose for my maternal grandmother's maiden name. For a boy were are considering Dilandau James aka DJ. Dilandau from the anime series Escaflowne, and James from my best friend. Kenneth Mark is a possibility, after my two brothers, as is Steven James, combining my name with my best friend's. This may well change when we actually have a child! [/QUOTE]
