Kirkatronics Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 I used to want to call my kids Matthew and Emma, but i've gone of both now. I think i might name my first born after me, boy or girl. Then again ill probobly change my mind as it could get confusing. If I had a son I'd be tempted to call him Tron. Although after seeing the new Star Trek trailer I love the name Tiberius. I like the name Xavier as well. I like Tiberius, and xavier isnt that bad.

Bluejay Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 boys:Jack John James Girls: Jane Sarah Those kids would be boring. My kids would never hang out with your kids. They would be too busy playing with Charizard and Tron. Those kids cannot fail to be badasses. What's your surname? Nova?
chairdriver Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Vincent. Boy. Obviously. I just got a really bad acid-y taste in my mouth.
Paj! Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 boys:Jack John James Girls: Jane Sarah Why not just not have children? (No offence to Chair, who is called John)
Wesley Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I just got a really bad acid-y taste in my mouth. Good. That's what I want.
chairdriver Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I need to call my daughter Katebush. One word.
Paj! Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I love Shakespearean names. A lot. Especially for girls. The boys ones could sound a bit odd possibly. Titania, Helena, Desdemona, Emila etc.
chairdriver Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Shakespearean names do reek of loveliness - I'll admit you that. I love Oephilia Powers as a name aswell.
Paj! Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Shakespearean names do reek of loveliness - I'll admit you that. I love Oephilia Powers as a name aswell. I can't name my daughter after a shit character from Catwoman, a shit (yet lovely) film. I could need to name her Mandy Lane.
chairdriver Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I can't name my daughter after a shit character from Catwoman, a shit (yet lovely) film. I could need to name her Mandy Lane. Would you name her Ellen Ripley? THAT'S the question we are all begging for you to answer.
Rummy Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I am considering between two dilemmas. To give my kids really generic obvious names and hope they break from it and form their own way more due to the fact they're forced to(such as you might when you have a silly name like chris) or give them a ridiculously unique name that'd force them to be something in life. There's something about a weird name that does that, Prince being the most prominent example to spring to mind. Would he be who he was if he wasn't named Prince? I doubt it. I might hit the middle ground some people have mentioned, and go for the more unique of first names...like Winston! Jamal! Elbert(dont think this is a name, but I want it to be)! Rupert! I could go on for ages!
Dante Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 :Pic: that's a huge picture! Those kids would be boring. How about? Allen Lee Heero Lucrezia Merquise Lavi Lenalee Leia Lucy Simon Kyo Why not just not have children? (No offence to Chair, who is called John) My father was called John.
Ashley Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I need to call my daughter Katebush. One word. You are aware what her nickname will be during childhood yes? Oh and I just remember the other name I really like; Stosh. (Steven Joshua)
chairdriver Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 You are aware what her nickname will be during childhood yes? Nicknames only make the heart grow fonder, at the end of the day.
Paj! Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Heero Lucrezia Lucy Kyo Those are the ones I can look at. My father was called John. So? Maybe it's just me, but you only one chance to name a child, and people with interesting (not over the top) names are always assuemd to be more fun. However, I can see it being done for sentimental reasons. Even then, I wouldn't do it for that reason, unless asked to be someone who might have passed away. I quite like the name Jean, and it's my deceased grandma's name, but that's not why I would consider it.
Ashley Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Nicknames only make the heart grow fonder, at the end of the day. Including c***bush? I'd say it'd make resentment grow fonder :p
Paj! Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Including c***bush? I'd say it'd make resentment grow fonder :p I agree. Chair needs to choose a name that's Somewhere In Between. I AM aware the name of his Mother Stands For Comfort, but I'm against the same names as family members generally...hmm. I once met Kashka. That's a lovely name. She was from Baghdad. And loved her coffee unbelievably homeground.
chairdriver Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I'd prefer a joke twist on the ancestral names. My Grandfather was called George, and I have a great uncle called Alexander and my dad named my younger sister Georgina Alexandrina after them. And my dad's name is Alistair, and my youngest sister is called Alison. And my oldest sister is named Sheelagh (technically a lovely twist on the well-known Sheila), named after some family member from ages ago - my dad's grandmother's sister or something. And then my other sister is called Helen(a), which was picked just because my parents loved the name/ Helen of Troy is lovely.
