Naming your child

[Mr. SmartyPants]

okay, if you had a child (assuming you were married.... hypothetically)... well im MY case... PURELY hypothetical IF i get married

anyway question is, what woudl you name your kids?

IF i had a girl (which i would rather have then a boy) id name them:

Terra or Erin (very odd because an adult leader at my youth group has 2 daughters named erin and terra)... I LOVE those names for some reason...

if I had a boy... meh... possibly Elias or something ^^

[EireWolf]

Go ERIN! That's MY name!

Terra's a cool name... means "earth."

Elias is the name of the Very Bad Man (TM) in the book I'm currently reading, so I'm not too keen on that at the moment.

I like the name Zoe for a girl.

[Locke]

I read that someone named their kid Maybe. Or Maybe not.

I think theres already a thread about this...somewere...oh well...

Boy: Ryan Nightow ( full name, nothing to do with MSP =]) or Hawk Nelson ( Heck yes I'll do it)
Girl: Aurora or Eire


I feel bad for the kids were going to have, with their anime and video game names.

[Wild Eagle]

Hmmm...if I ever had a boy, I'd proabably name him Andrew or Thomas. If I had a girl, I'd probably name her Sarah or Victoria. Plain and simple names lol.

[Mave]

I would name my son Joshua and my daughter Maria. They may be common names but I really like them. ^^

[AngelSakura]

<<Boy: Ryan Nightow ( full name, nothing to do with MSP =]) or Hawk Nelson ( Heck yes I'll do it)>>
As in Yasuhiro Nightow, creator of the Trigun manga?

[Puguni]

Oh the possiblities:

Girls:
Paige
Eve
Emma
Emily

Boys:
Julian
John
Adrian
Blaine

[Locke]

One and only.

[AngelSakura]

You are awesome.

[Sakura15]

or Hawk Nelson ( Heck yes I'll do it)

rofl!!!

[Locke]

Oye Sakura15, you just reminded me that their will be million other children name Sakura in the next 20 years. LOL

Hawk Nelson is a more accesible name than Relient K BTW. Plus it just sounds cool =P

[Sakura15]

LOL, No kidding.

Haha! thats true, it does sound cool ^^

[Mr. SmartyPants]

really eire? your name is erin? I love that name for some reason... if i don't get married to an erin then my daughter will be erin! or maybe terra.. I DONT KNOW I CANT DECIDE

[Golden_Griff]

Hmm, I'm still giving it some thought. I want names that are uncommon but not crazy-weird. There's some names out there that I don't want to use because it's an overload of people with that particular namewithin the same proximity -- in my opinion, overusage really tires a name out even if it is cool. There are names that I think I would want to use even though they're foreign names (i.e. Greek, Spanish, Japanese, etc.) I'm unsure of boy names but a girl name I've been thinking of is Zephanie

[Syaoran]

Don't want to think that far ahead yet.

[Saint Kevin]

Wow...kids huh? I haven't really given that a whole lot of thought. I'll think I'll cross that bridge if I come to it.

Somebody mentioned the name Terra. I know of a girl named Terran, but I have a sneaking suspicion that her parents were hippies or something. Also, she wants to be a holistic health professional (go figure). So yeah, cool name, I'm all for unique names.

[Lunis]

I'm going to name my kid Knives. Doesn't matter if it's a boy or girl. Knives. Yep. Or maybe Tessla if it's a girl...

...

...

...

...

...

I am kidding, you know!

But maybe not about the Tessla part... I'll do it just for her and Knives' sake!

[Danyasaur]

Girl:
Emma, Eowyn, Scout, Maire, Hattie, Blanche, Hannah, Bryt, Kiry, Lesley, Emily, Danielle, Daniella, Erin.

that was all I could think of right now.

Boy:
Kyle, Cody, Evan, Blake, Blaine, Roni, Ben, Durain, Korey, Ashely, Kurtis, Andy, Eli.

again, all I could think of ^_^;;

[Yumie]

OK OK OK OK! I've thought about this. Well, one of the names I stole from Osaka, ha ha, I just have to have a girl first. The name being Kari Ellison. I just love it, it has such a great ring to it! And the second name for a girl that I've thought of on my own is Aria Marie, I think that one flows well too. For a boy, I like the name Wesley. . . Reed maybe? And I also like the name Grant, but I'm not sure what middle name I'd put with it yet. Maybe Thomas. Not sure. I have a lot more names too but I can't think of them right now. They come and go, but they'll be back .

[Slater]

Sonic Rose and I decided on one for if we have a boy. Richard! cause about 80 years ago, my ancestor named Richard E. Byrd did some pretty kewl stuff. Google him.

[Lunis]

Eowyn

FYI, that means "horse joy" in Latin. I watch too much Lord of the Rings extras. I first realized this when I started thinking to myself in an English accent. ^^;

[Arnobius]

Probably Daphne for a girl.
I could choose Convoy...

[Alice]

I'm partial to "J" names. I'd probably want to name my boy "Joe," if I had one.

[Joshua Christopher]

Male: Gaylord, Sue, Antonio, Quentin, Rockwell, Amadeus, Wolfgang, Alberto, Vin.
Female: Sue, Pam, Kim, Ann, Fly, Kelsey, Angel, Rita, Gaz.

And for the record: I don't plan on getting married and having kids, what with the third arm and one leg. : P

OHHH aria! that sounds really good ^_^ i like that!

[Rev. Doc]

Heather - after the flowery countryside in Scotland my wife and I observed on a mission trip there.

Nathan - after the mighty prophet in the Scriptures.

And thus we did.

[Yojimbo]

Male: Gaylord, Sue, Antonio, Quentin, Rockwell, Amadeus, Wolfgang, Alberto, Vin.
Female: Sue, Pam, Kim, Ann, Fly, Kelsey, Angel, Rita, Gaz.

If you named your kid Gaylord you're subjecting him to years of torture you know. Angel and Fly seem to fit snugly into a female risque profession too. I'm joking but please...don't name your kids those few at least for their sake.

As far as names for my kids I like the names:

Male:
Reese
Hunter
Carter
Jordan
Joshua

Female:
Elisa
Gretchen
Claire
Colleen

[Slater]

haha, I agree on the Gaylord thing. Go with Gregg instead.
Oh, and don't worry about appearances. Love isn't skin deep, d00d.

[Golden_Griff]

Someone mentioned Scout...never thought of that as a name but it sounds kinda cute Some ppl think Apple is a weird name for a child (i.e. Gweneth Paltrow's baby) but I don't think it's that bad. I think Apple is cute too ^_^

I watched this movie once (can't think of the name of it) and this dude's name was Cotton. If you knew his villainous character you would see that he wasn't exactly soft and gentle

[true_noir_chloe]

I would name my son Joshua and my daughter Maria. They may be common names but I really like them. ^^

Ah, after your favorite "cool" dude? ~_^

Anyway, I wanted to name my kids a first name from the Old Testament and a middle name from the New Testament.

Thus, I named my son, Joshua (God is salvation) Luke, and my daughter, Sarah (a princess) Hope (This is a family name and it's my middle name too).

If I would have been able to have more children I was thinking of Rachel, Anna or Jacob.
