As you see I am quite proud of my English blood. My mothers-mother told me that her bloodline came over on the Mayflower in the 16th century. I also have a bit of Dutch, and a mix of a dozen others.
So my sons name will be
Duke Noble Collins
I believe in that names have some influence over your life and guide you. You still have the free will to change your destiny but I want my son to grow up to be a kind, noble, leader. A man who when he walks by others will say "let us follow him into battle for he will lead us to victory".
"Lord, I pray for a son who inspires others and leads them to do right in your eyes. Your will be done. Amen"

I think the name should have meaning, and not just the meaning you see in naming books, something special to you, there should be a story to it, whether you name it from a book, a game or from someone who has meant a lot to you, it should have a story i think.
Oh, and a new one, Cyrus, i like Cyrus

Funnily enough I always liked the name James too. But I also could never bring myself to name my kid that thanks to a jerk I knew in highschool. Could James just be a name that naturally molds people into dicks?Scarim Coral said:
On an aside would be wrong of me to name my son... Garrus?
My wife and I made a system where we each wrote down ten names we liked and then took each others' lists and crossed names out that we didn't like to make our choice more manageable. That said, Cameron is the name we ended up with. We also liked Thomas, Nathan, Benjamin, and Peter.
What i would want to name my kid: Atticus
But it would probably turn in to one of those "Sit down and think realistically" kind of things with the other half, even though it's still a bitchin name. I mean there is so much meaning behind it. It can stand for my want of my kid growing up to be moral and fair, considerate but just, just like his namesake (Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird)
My family have a sort of Q/A session where names are thrown around and you try to come up with ways in which they can be given nicknames or made fun of. So far Atticus is still standing strong.
