If you had a son, what would you name him?

[Baldry]

Well i'm naming my child Chewbacca Alexius Oliver Gatsby Rocketman Dovahkiin Baldry. So you know I don't think I'm the best person to ask this but I like the name Charles.

 

[KingofallCosmos]

Aloyisus! Pronounced aloe-wishus. It's rare and rather pretty and altogether badass because it is Mr. Snuffleupagus' first name! LOOK IT UP AWESOME. Oh, also is the name of the Italian patron saint of students, so hello good grades!

That's my father's name. I will let you keep your dignity/fantasy by not adding further information

 

[Knight Captain Kerr]

Ash, it is such a cool name.

 

[Delta437]

I would think maybe Atlas, Adrian, Paxton, or Atticus. Atlas because i love greek mythos, Adrian because its been a favorite of mine for as long as i can remember, Paxton because he was a badass in F.E.A.R., and Atticus is a reference to Atticus Ross; a favorite musician of mine.

 

[Hristo Petrov]

Either Peter (my dad's name) or Asparuh (first ruler of Bulgaria and a real badass)

 

[Markgraf]

My first son I'd name after myself. There is a tradition in my family where the firstborn son always has the same name (patrillineally only though).

 

[Eisenfaust]

Whatever you choose, for the love of God, don't spell it in a stupid way. Don't do Kole, or Jaymes, or Darrinn, or Marck, or Alin, or Willyam, or Kristofer, or Mikeal. The poor kid will never see his name spelled right until the day he dies. Oh, and I'd stay away from names that you can't tell how you spell them by the way they sound. Like Sean. Or Shawn, or Shaun. Seriously, people have ruined this name. And the only Seans I've known have been douchebags, anyway.

that's nothing... the friend of a colleague of mine named her child L-a... pronounced Ladashah... it's worrying

as for me, nathaniel of sebastian, though i'd have no idea about girls names

 

[NeverKnowsBest]

Ashley. Inspired by the "A Boy Named Sue" method of toughening a kid up and Bruce Campbell.

Ashley was originally a boy's name.

Yeah, I know. That's how I'd justify the name to the mother.

 

[Icaruss]

I've actually thought about this one a lot heres my six

Markus
Valens
Hector
Alexander
Victor
Jack

 

[AdeptaSororitas]

Alphonse (Yes, THAT Alphonse) ^/^ What can I say, even Sororitas like FMA.

 

[Asuka Soryu]

Mirrow.

 

[Amberella]

Well the fiancé and I already have names down for our future children. xD We picked Ethan Alexander as our first sons name. :3

 

[Velvo]

Aloyisus! Pronounced aloe-wishus. It's rare and rather pretty and altogether badass because it is Mr. Snuffleupagus' first name! LOOK IT UP AWESOME. Oh, also is the name of the Italian patron saint of students, so hello good grades!

That's my father's name. I will let you keep your dignity/fantasy by not adding further information

Yes, yes, a rose by any other name smells as sweet (or foul) and all that... But still, gotta love name symbolisms!

 

[CATB320]

I think I'd like to name mine Logan. It's a pretty manly name, right? Wolverine's name is Logan.

 

[imagremlin]

No particular suggestions, but a few if hints.

1) Name him something rational (it's been said)

2) Give him his own name, do not hame him after such and such. I was named after an uncle and never felt the name belonged to me. Throughout my childhood I kept hearing (from family members) "Oh, like your uncle, how cute". Grrr.

3) Not too common. My name is the third most popular boy name in spanish. I never worked/studied at a place with less than five other blokes with the same name. And I hated it. Until I moved to Australia, that is.

4) If you think you'll ever move countries, try something that will be understandable in the other language. No one ever gets my name right in english (still, I rather have that than five other blokes with the same name around)

At the end of the day, your son may like or dislike his name in the long run, but at least you'll be able to say "I gave it much thought and did my best".

I followed these rules with my own son.

 

[BumblebeeEU]

Balthazar...I would love a little Balthazar.

 

[Athol]

His first name will be John. It's shared by me, my father, and my late grandfather (Me and my father go by our middle names).

 

[furmaster3000]

Corin
Olaf
Donald

His initials would be COD, COD!!!. But probably the person I would have the baby with, could have something against it. Maybe, Possibly. . .

I dunno. .. .
