Name my baby!

Pantera

Alright, by the end of the month your truly, Lord of Blood and Fire, will be a father.

*waits for everyone to stop screaming*

I know, I know, another of me is almost too good to be true, but there it is. As it stands my little bundle is ripping his/her cramped little cubby to pieces, trying to tear his/her way free already. I'm eager to get the baby out However, should he/she come tomorrow, I have a problem:

I have no name for a boy.

We've decided on 'Brooklyn Faye' for a girl, as I like the sound of Brooklyn, or Brooke, and Faye is my girl's family name, that all the women in her clan share...

So, give me some suggestions. This may sound simple, but trust me, it's not at all...

My name is 'John' the most generic, boring ass name ever. I want my boy to have something original. I tried to con my girl into 'Bastien' or 'Dayne', but she was having none of it. So, I have wracked my brain for months, and I've come up with nothing.

A few names have sounded good, at least until paired with my last name 'Cox'. I was liking the sound of 'Jace' until I paired it with my last name, and suddenly it sucked as bad as everything else. We may keep it as a middle name but... Who knows?

SO! NAME MY BABY!

To the one with the winning name, I may have a prize for you.... *flashes crotch*

Okay... for a boy -- I have to warn you, I've always been partial to Irish/Celtic names...

Amhlaoibh (pronounced av-leev)
Caoimhín (kee-veen)
Conchobhar (konkh-o-var)
Donnachaidh (don-na-khaigh)
Eoin (o-in) (Interestingly enough, the Irish form of John)
Maeleachlainn (mei-laikh-lain)
Muireadhach (mee-rai-ghakh, mee-raikh)
Naoise (nee-sha)
Seosamh (sho-sav)
Tighearnach (ti-ghair-nakh, tier-nakh)
Toirdhealbhach (toir-ghail-vakh)

Best I can come up with, and quite a bit more unusual than John. For what it's worth, my last name's Cox as well... (Have you also been planning on marrying off your first daughter so some guy named "Ucker" just for the newspaper report?)

For the love of your child, don't join the retarded celebrity bandwagon of giving a child a stupid name "cos it sounds cool", which is usually named after a plant, animal, the city where their parents fucked to make them or a philosophical concept. Your kid will end up hating you when it grows older. They are not going to give a crap if you name them James or Thomas; if they grow up to do something great like cure cancer or make an antigravity device then aren't you going to be more proud of that than if they had a cool name?

BTW, my name is George, there must be at least a dozen famous people who had that first name.

I agree that I don't want a totally obscure 'kewl' sounding name, but once again my name is John, which is boring and generic, and I hate it. There must be a thousand famous John's, but I could care less. If my son does cure cancer then I would much rather his name had a resounding ring to it.

That reminds me of an something I heard years ago:

"The worst thing you can have done to a young child is have given him an interesting name.
The best thing you can have done to an adult child is have given him an interesting name."

An interesting name will at least work as an good opening to talk to potentially important people (girls, potential employers, school admission advisors, etc).

Maybe you ought to start with picking a new last name for yourself. Cox isn't the worst possible name to end up with, but I wonder how people can live with weird and stupid-sounding names.

I was at a funeral this saturday, and my brother read aloud all the addresses that had been delivered by post from people who couldn't make the funeral. One of them was from a woman called "Sirpa Tötterström" (It probably sounds funny even if you're not from a Scandinavian country). I could see that my brother had trouble holding down laughter or at least a smile when he read and said the name aloud. It wouldn't have been really appropriate, because the person who had died was my brother's godfather. I really couldn't take anyone named like that seriously.

All in all, pick a name that doesn't sound idiotic. If you like Brooke for the right reason, then perhaps Ridge would be ok too?

30-08-2004, 13:56
All kidding aside, you really need a first name with two or three syllables to go with a one syllable last name. That's why jace cox doesn't work.

How 'bout Jonathan (for a variation on your own name), Russell, or Alexander?

Not totally off the wall, but not as common as John or Michael, either.

Neither of my kids were named until the day they left the hospital (drove the hospital staff nuts -- which was perversely fun) You kind of have to see them to make sure it fits. We had a name picked out for my daughter, and though I know all babies look like, it just didn't fit her. You'll kind of know when you get it right.


Most importantly, have fun with the baby! Sleep now while you can...

Congratulations on the sex.... *coughsplutter* I mean the baby.... *wipes mouth*.

Anyhow, you could go for some kind a name which isnt used very often anymore. It wouldnt be very new, and to be honest I would shoot my son before naming him this, but why not Abraham. Basically it means that he is a father of many, and I do suppose in a way you want to continue the bloodline. Course, Peter Cox sounds quite powerful, could be an actor.

Anyhow, I'll list a few names, or one, or two of slightly new yet different names, and none of the wierd crap otherwise the poor kid would get pinned to a wall multiple times during his schooling.

Jinson (Pronounced Jinson, yes)
Alkon
Ligar (Pronounced Lieger)
Wolfgang
Mercury (Which I think is very cool)
Kanibas (Most likely will be a popular kid, for the simple link to cannibas. And its pronounced Kaneebas anyways.)
Aritas (Pronounced Areetus)

These are some random, very random things I came up with. I think I will post more with a random name generator.... Just gotta find one first.

Aerou
30-08-2004, 20:37
Micheal and William sound good with your last name. But both would end up being "Bill" and "Mike" and those aren't so good. Same with Martin, it will probably get shortened to "Marty" as he gets older.

And indeed, don't pick some crazy name just because it looks cool. My parents decided I should be "Aerou" which is "arrow" in English (but Polish) and no one ever seems to get it right.

Also, you have to think about how people are going to actually pronounce it. My brothers name is "Jakob", and its Polish so the J is a "y" sound, but no one EVER says it correctly. Its kind of like "Janus", it never gets pronouced correctly in the states either.

As far as the names I've seen so far I like "Aidan" it sounds neat with the last name "Cox". I'm also fond of Roman, Skyler, and David with the last name.....

Best of luck to you and yours on choosing a great name!

I've always been very partial to the name Leon. I think it's one of the coolest boy names out there, and plan to name my son that eventually.

My girl's been planning to name a daughter Cora if you're curious.

I'm personally a fan of Tristan
I am saving that for myself, but you can use it as well if you like

Yes, we named our second son Tristan, and, though everyone misspells or mispronounces it here in the U.S.A., it's very unique, unlike all of his friends named Jacob or Joshua. He's the only Tris in his relatively large school.

i bet theres no Lascivious or Mercutio or Zarathustra in that group though!!

Maybe Alvero, or Anton, Jelani (african for mighty), Orlando, Paxton, Vincent, Waylon, maybe even something like Trenton or Tobias.

I dont know, them are some cool ones i found.

I like names with meanings. But if you know what Lascivious is, you might not want to name anything except your weiner that... I just thought it went well with the last name... if you wanted your son to be a stud horse for the local breeding ground... as i want mine to be.

Maybe Romeo, but thats too presumpituous

I too like Spencer.

Actually, that was a joke. I mean, its probably the least odd name out of the list there...but would you name your child Lance or Julian?

*shudder* think of the poor kid at school...

Before settling on Elric Michael, my parents considered Basil Rathbone (after the actor, for those who don't know)... and Cadillac Seville.

If I ever have kids (which I certainly hope I do not), I think I would want to go all out... have, I dunno, 7. Name them after the "7 deadly sins," maybe.

No! I'll just number them... randomly.

Actually, I think I'll just name them by function: "Beer-fetcher" and "backscratcher," perhaps.

Alright, by the end of the month your truly, Lord of Blood and Fire, will be a father.

*waits for everyone to stop screaming*

I know, I know, another of me is almost too good to be true, but there it is. As it stands my little bundle is ripping his/her cramped little cubby to pieces, trying to tear his/her way free already. I'm eager to get the baby out However, should he/she come tomorrow, I have a problem:

I have no name for a boy.

We've decided on 'Brooklyn Faye' for a girl, as I like the sound of Brooklyn, or Brooke, and Faye is my girl's family name, that all the women in her clan share...

So, give me some suggestions. This may sound simple, but trust me, it's not at all...

My name is 'John' the most generic, boring ass name ever. I want my boy to have something original. I tried to con my girl into 'Bastien' or 'Dayne', but she was having none of it. So, I have wracked my brain for months, and I've come up with nothing.

A few names have sounded good, at least until paired with my last name 'Cox'. I was liking the sound of 'Jace' until I paired it with my last name, and suddenly it sucked as bad as everything else. We may keep it as a middle name but... Who knows?

SO! NAME MY BABY!

To the one with the winning name, I may have a prize for you.... *flashes crotch*
Try Nate, Nate is a cool name

How about Jamison? Jamison Cox sounds cool, and it's not too common.
