Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: slog on February 16, 2009, 06:02:52 PM Last name Thompson. Baby boy coming in May. Briefly brought up the name Hunter to wife. Got totally shot down. Le sigh. What about Jack? Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: stray on February 16, 2009, 06:11:06 PM Cool, same last name here, although it's spelled a bit different (Scandi).
Yeah, too bad about Jack. Cool name. Bad combo. Hell though, with all of the unique type of names out there, you should go with something like that. Sam, Jack, John, Michael, etc.. Still cool names. There's a severe lack of newborns with names like that. ;) Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Merusk on February 16, 2009, 06:20:50 PM Yeah they're all Hunter, Cody, Ethan, Daniel, Noah, Aiden, Caleb etc.
It's odd to see Michael drop down to #54 on the list these days. It used to always be in the top 10-20. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Lantyssa on February 16, 2009, 07:10:03 PM Yeah, too bad about Jack. Cool name. Bad combo. It's actually a nickname. Apparently it's used by a lot of east coasters in place of John. One of my good friends uses it.Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: schild on February 16, 2009, 07:14:43 PM Thursday
or Seven or The with a middle name Future. Or Danger. Danger Thompson. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: stray on February 16, 2009, 07:21:55 PM Yeah, too bad about Jack. Cool name. Bad combo. It's actually a nickname. Apparently it's used by a lot of east coasters in place of John. One of my good friends uses it.Damn good name though. Hats off to any Jacks here. :grin: My plan, however, is to marry a girl with a K name (I'm a K), and just name all of the kids with K names. Sure, I'm "k"ockblocking ( :roll:) myself by doing that, but that's the plan. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Yegolev on February 16, 2009, 07:31:37 PM Megatron.

Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Broughden on February 16, 2009, 08:21:05 PM Im naming my first born Fin MacCool or Leonidas.
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: TheWalrus on February 16, 2009, 11:49:04 PM Wifes latest plan is Gage for first. I get to pick middle which will be Andrew after my bestest buddy in the whole wide world. I can compromise that far. Not that I won't be thinking of the kid from Pet Sematary every time I look at the lil bugger.
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: stray on February 16, 2009, 11:50:26 PM Your wife has chosen wisely. Good luck.

Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: IainC on February 17, 2009, 12:42:58 AM Jaeger or Chasseur could be nice names.
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Triforcer on February 17, 2009, 12:45:57 AM Jaeger or Chasseur could be nice names. But shouldn't they allow for the possibility their son won't be a male stripper? Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: DraconianOne on February 17, 2009, 01:21:54 AM What if you have twins?

Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Hawkbit on February 17, 2009, 06:58:37 AM My last name is Shrader, tried really hard to name my kid Darth. Alas, it was a girl and the idea was shot down before she was even born. :oh_i_see:
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: HaemishM on February 17, 2009, 07:32:39 AM You should go with Brock for the first name. That way even if he's a wuss, he'll sound like a secret agent.

I teach two large classes this semester and the names on my roster are frightening. You should be hitting the begining of the '90s babies. Didn't traditional names go out of style around then? I suppose it depends on the name itself, but having a unique name can be a lot nicer than being one of four Amys, Michaels, Johns, or Jennifers in your class of thirty.Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Sky on February 17, 2009, 10:57:02 AM My band started numbering Jennifers. I do not exaggerate. There were so many Jennifers we couldn't keep track anymore, even with nicknames. Oh, Jen 18, you wild, wild creature, you.
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Oban on February 17, 2009, 11:42:12 AM Damn, I only got up to Jen P.
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: stray on February 17, 2009, 12:46:42 PM Jennifer. From Guinevere.
In that case, I might opt for the latter. Not enough Guineveres these days. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: voodoolily on February 17, 2009, 01:13:12 PM Pet Cemetery Zombie Baby Awesome. First thing I thought of, too. I always liked Silas for a boy. Si for short, like Si Zentner (trombonist on the Dr. No soundtrack).

Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Sky on February 17, 2009, 01:23:31 PM Jennifer. From Guinevere. I used to go with a punk go-go dancer named Guinevere once. Her roommate was a skinhead who took acid and watched Looney Tunes all day. That was so much fun. Especially since I had acid and nazi paraphernalia, we got along great. Ursula is a great name.VL: Sy is a great name. Especially if you're also a client.

I love granny names like Wilma, LaVerne, Ruby (not so rare these days), Lidia, etc. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: stray on February 17, 2009, 01:54:02 PM I agree, Ruby is cool.. I didn't know it wasn't rare these days, or grandma-ish. Only Rubys I've known were Mexican girls, for some reason.
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Samwise on February 17, 2009, 01:58:56 PM I don't think I've ever heard of someone named Ruby outside of a Cake song.
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: stray on February 17, 2009, 02:06:36 PM I don't think I've ever heard of someone named Ruby outside of a Cake song. Cake? C'mon, dude.. The Stones have the only memorable Ruby song. 8-) Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Lantyssa on February 17, 2009, 02:14:23 PM I know a caucasian Ruby.
Lidia and Ursula are both great names. I'm partial to all the Lily varients, too. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Signe on February 17, 2009, 02:41:17 PM I knew a musician named Dishwater. He was cool but his name? Not so much. I went to school with a Napoleon Rodriguez. I really liked his name.
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: schild on February 17, 2009, 02:43:40 PM I don't think I've ever heard of someone named Ruby outside of a Cake song. Do you mean the Kenny Rogers song, "Ruby, Don't Take your Love to town." ? Which has been covered by The Killers, Wolfsheim, and I GUESS Cake. Or is it some other Ruby song. Also, Ruby is a pretty great name that's coming back, though normally is saved for grandmas of another era. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Samwise on February 17, 2009, 02:49:12 PM I don't think I've ever heard of someone named Ruby outside of a Cake song.

Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Righ on February 17, 2009, 03:08:23 PM Last name Thompson. Baby boy coming in May. Thomas. Admittedly there's a Tommy Thompson in the GOP at the moment, but its still a great name. Eric/Ernie/Evan. Gets to be ET for all those important remix projects. Kenneth. Ken Thompson is one of the fathers of the Unix operating system. Eternal geek cred. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: voodoolily on February 17, 2009, 04:04:37 PM Kenneth.

Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Lantyssa on February 17, 2009, 09:13:25 PM My kids are lucky I'll never have any. They'd hate the names I would give them.

Or did you mean Gauge? lol I don't even want to think about naming kids, though I would be kinda partial to Vincent or Jason or ...something, I dunno. Achilles? :oh_i_see: Jason wouldn't be a bad choice. It was so popular in the 70's the only people naming their kids Jason these days are the ones naming the kid after it's father. My wife nixed Lucretia when it came to naming our daughter. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Signe on February 18, 2009, 06:28:06 AM Thom. That's what Scandies do. Magnus Magnussun, Sigurd Sigurdsen, Ollie Olsen. Well, Ollie is Australian but you get the idea. It takes a lot of the stress out of naming children, I guess. A lot of my family are Sigurds but not Sigurdsens. Yay. Thank God I'm not a Signe Signessen. That would so suck. I would name my kid Lister, after the cat. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Yegolev on February 18, 2009, 06:31:25 AM I would name my kid Lister, after the cat. I thought Lister was a surname? Ah, who cares these days? Go down a NFL roster and note that you cannot do worse if you avoid naming your child after cling wrap or a pharmaceutical company. Why are you awake this early? Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Signe on February 18, 2009, 06:36:14 AM Actually, Lister wakes me up around 6 AM every morning. He likes to eat early. He sits on top of the dresser and meows until I get up. I can't last five minutes but Righ sleeps right through it most times. I'd shut the door, but he can open them. :uhrr:
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Yegolev on February 18, 2009, 06:37:55 AM Yeah that's right. I thought you had been watching Red Dwarf. I totally forgot about your pussies.

Signe Signesdottir isn't really an improvement though. Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Signe on February 18, 2009, 06:47:01 AM That's true. And my middle name would have to be Lars because every man's middle name in Norway is Lars. EVERY ONE OF THEM!

The mean bastard had perpetuated the evilness by naming his son Sidney and his daughter Pearl.
Title: Re: Rare opportunity Post by: Signe on February 18, 2009, 08:34:22 AM Giving your children silly names is probably one of the only ways you can get back at them for being born without going to prison. All you have to do is come up with name - their school mates will take care of the rest. I would approve if I hadn't been a victim of it. And it's not just the Signe. The rest of my names, except for my married name, are almost as bad. Put together, they're even more unpronounceable.

Nothing much wrong with that, you may think, but her childhood nickname of "Smiley Miley" (because of her sunny demeanour) eventually stuck for good. She has now formally adopted it, albeit in a slightly shorter version. She has an eight-year-old sister called Noah Lindsey, who is also in Hannah Montana, and a brother called Braison Chance.
