What would you name your kids?
Boy: Neko, Caden, Hutch
Girl: Emily, Adel, Alary

What names do you like?
I like ones that no one uses much anymore. I don't like things like Roger, Ronald, and Benjamin that will give them a lame nickname. Names from other countries are cool~

What would you rename yourself?

My name's Teresa and I'd like to keep it that way.

That is not only a bad a idea, it's a really bad idea. ESPECIALLY Sarah-Blue and Vixen (on a guy? I mean come on, that's not only a chick's name, it refers to a chick that's very feminine and hot).

I'm sorry, but I reallllllly hope you don't name your kids that...

I'm sorry, but your totallllly missing the point of this thread.
This thread is for saying what kind of names you like, not bashing other's tastes.

(Sorry if anyone thinks I'm mini-modding, but I don't want other's name tastes to be discouraged).

Getting back on topic,
Sarah-Blue isn't a bad name, did it also come from a video game (my best guess would be a Final Fantasy, from your other names)?

I'm not missing the point of this thread. I'm just trying to save her kids from some horrible teasing and her from some very bad criticism. I mean, if I knew someone that named their kid after a video game character, I'd think that they cared more about games than their child, and assume they were a negligent or immature parent.

Yes, you are.

The point of this thread is to state what kind of names you like.
You may also vote on the poll.

And... do you have any affect on what someone names their kids?

Just to say the truth, I was hoping to name my kids the name I stated on the first post of the thread.

(Sons: Octavius, Inigo. Daughters: Ursula, maybe Cheri)

Kids will make fun of anyone these days, so would it really make a difference?
No.

May as well answer this:

What would you name your kids: If boy, Matthew, If girl, Molly (If you need a reason, then you're kind of weird...)

What names do you like: Boris. It's one of those manly names.

What would rename yourself: I wouldn't for the world. Well, unless I changed it to Boris...

I like really out there names. I'm not having any kids, and therefore am not naming then anything. But I have a mental list of crazy, beautiful names. If I ever remember any of them, I'll post :3

My situation is a tad different since I won't be naming my kids with English names anyway. But I definitely like uncommon Finnish names more than the ultra-boring common ones. Especially since I have a very uncommon but very Finnish last name :laugh:

Anyway, if I had to name my children without consulting my fiancée first... Let's see. For girls, I've been thinking names like Milka, Mira, and Lumi. If I get into a Japanese university and move over there, of course the names would be ones that are easy for Japanese people to pronounce (or Japanese names), like maybe Mai or Akari. For boys, the names would be something like Kai, Matias, and Janne.

Some of those names are pretty international, though ^-^

My friend once knew a girl named La-a. Pronounced "La-dash-a".

I've always loved the names Charlie and Alice. Oliver and Dorothy are pretty too.
I'd just like to give my kids a simple, slightly common first name. Then a rare middle name. Just like my mother did for me. C:
Doll, you make them feel so small
AND THEY LOVE IT!

To everyone who would name their kid with a Japanese name: Don't, unless they actually ARE Japanese. plzkthx.

Also, This.
I saw that story. Some others:

Children have been legally named "Tallula does the Hula(full name)" and "Apple" among others.

One man changed his name 4 times, currently Zada Zady Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzrrrraa or something of the like.

I almost forgot:

The Puritans were crazy with names. They thought that by naming your kid, you would "protect" it from whatever you named it. So names like "Jealousy," "Hate," "Satan," and, my personal favorite, "Fool If Jesus Had Not Saved Thee Thou Wouldst Be Damned" were common.

What would you name your kids?
Me and my fiance have a few names picked out.....

Tamran Josephine for a girl. It's different. First three letters of my moms name and the first three letters of my dads name. The middle name is from my brother.

Aiden Jasper for a boy. We just like those two names.

But we're adding something in for my sister, Yvonne.


What names do you like?
I like the names Alexander/Alexandria and Xaiver.

What would rename yourself?
Edward Anthony Masen

What would you name your kids?
For a girl, Violet or Amber.
For a boy, Leo or most likely, Warren. I freakin' love that name :D


What names do you like?
Errr, names that are a bit away from common like ^ those but not crazy ones like Octavius.

What would rename yourself?
Warren. Like I said. Or possibly Jelly.


Ignoring the last question because its the same as the 2nd one. But kudos for using the phrase "tickles your fancy" That's freakin' AWESOME.

I voted for all three XD, I'm not crazy about most common names, but some are great. And I know this might at first seem like Pokemon related, but when I thought of these names I didn't have the games in mind.

-Lance
-Misty
-Lleyton

If I could have two boys and a girl with those names, my life would be complete. Haha.

Call me dull but I like common names. Some uncommon names, while imaginative, also sound utterly ridiculous and I can't help but feel sorry for some of the kids.

The worst is when chav parents over here name their kids after cheap wines and beers. Seriously.

What would you name your kids
Boy: Adam or Joshua
Girl: Sarah or Emily

What names do you like
Just normal ones, as mentioned above haha

What would rename yourself?
I wouldn't :D
