I'll name my son 'Oedipus' :v:

There's a kid at my school named Odin, he has an afro. [editline]09:19PM[/editline] Also, if I ever have children, I'm naming my son Shane. [editline]09:20PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Xystus234;21846551]I was almost named Leonidas.[/QUOTE] Badass

I like the names Elly(girl) and Ellis(boy)

[QUOTE=ZapDing;21831715]Everyone gets my last name wrong, it's spelled N[B]ie[/B]ld instead of Neild.[/QUOTE] Bitch please, try having the last name Lolmaugh. Feels bad man.

If I have kids (I cant see myself wanting them in the future, though) a girl would be named Anya, or Kali. A boy would be named Geb or Dayus. Obscure mythological names are the best.

If I have a son, I would name him Nikola, because Nikola Tesla is badass.

Name him Vladimir, because Vladimir Putin is a badass president.

Whenever I have a daughter, I'm gonna name her Piper. Always liked that name for some reason. My name is the most generic out there: Michael. How boring.

We had an officer at our school named Montgomery Montgomery.

My nephew's name is Tyson, which I guess is unique

[QUOTE=Raptor_Girl;21830633]..Why would you name your kid after a type of math?[/QUOTE] Because the kid has severe birth defects that cause him to be mentally retarded. No, really.

congrats to parents who give them ridiculously spelled names and condemn them to a lifetime of teasing and bullying

[QUOTE=GunFox;21834592]Uhh, Calypso is an awesome name. You probably have some name based in Judeo-Christian myth or an occupation. Calypso comes from ancient Greek myth as the sea Goddess and daughter of a Titan.[/QUOTE]She worships satan and has green hair. We call her 'the Calypso' for a reason.

They're unique. Just like everyone else.

[QUOTE=Left4Meds;21830517]I want my child to be unique, I will name him 'Unique'.[/QUOTE] Screw you, my name is Uniek.

I wanted to name my sons Seamus, Maximillian, Julius, and Napoleon

[QUOTE=Fire Kracker;21846021]I'mma name my kid Yang that way his name would be Yang Yang[/QUOTE] It's been agreed between one of my friends and I that he will name his kid Wing and I will name my kid Zing. Wing Wong and Zing Zhang. They will live horrible lives. :buddy:

Why don't people just give kids goofy middle names? It would save a lot of trouble, and I see people change their names on facebook to shit like John 400babies Smith all the time anyway, so it wouldn't hurt anyone

My great grandpa's name was Mathew S. Mathew

My mother gave her children very good names in my opinion. She is also a college graduate and highly creative.

I'm going to name my kid Chance, because that's the only way I'll ever actually have one. By chance.

If you want your kid to be an individual, name him Bob and tell him to forge his own goddamn identity and not let his name define him.

I'm naming my kid Gordon if it's a boy, Alyx if it's a girl, Pyro if it's a transexual.

I will have seven children. I will name them Asmodeus, Beelzebub, Mammon, Belphegor, Satan, Leviathan, and Lucifer.

There is a gay kid at our school whose initials are KKK.

I was at a resteraunt, and a couple was chasing their kid yelling "Eragon, get back here!"

I'm Zach, although I've never been clear on whether or not it's more normal to be named "Zach" or "Zack". Seems about equal in abundancy these days. Although when I think about it, I can't recall ever seeing the name "Zackary". So maybe "Zack" is only for people who are actually just called that. Too many people with that name.

Other nations are probably looking at our next generation and muttering to themselves that Americans can't spell. Most "classic" names have a backstory or a famous figure to it; these names now are just pulled out of an ass

Desiree, pronounced "Desire E" La-a, pronounced "Lay dash uh" Angel, Princess, Heaven, etc. *Insert bastardization of Swahili here*, spelled with at least one unnecessary apostrophe I live in the deep south. I've seen it all.
