Baby names

[Dogwatcher]

I have a bit of a project to find a baby name at the moment.

We're settled on a name if we have a girl, but can't figure a boy's name.

My wife suggested I go through my CD collection to find one. Here's some I came up with:

Carter
Fruitbat
Nick
Billy
East Bay Ray
Jello
Zac
Tex
Cash
Warhol
Adrock
MCA
Liam
Bowie
Hester
Bragg
Wilco
Richie
Johan
Bach
Flavour
Chuck D
E
Hieronymous

After suggesting all of those, I got many 'no' responses. Funny that eh?

Anyone got any ideas (serious or otherwise)?

Euronymous
Dead
Count Grishnacht
Burzum
Dani Filth
Rudas Priest
GG Allin

my sons name is in that list (no its not Fruitbat )

Have you tried Harbajhan Singh.

[rogernumber10]

Considering we have one coming, and have picked it, go with a good strong one syllable name. I reckon they stand the test of time. (this from a person with multiple syllables)

[Punk Rooster]

Names not to call your son
Randy

Good thread -- Billy Ray

[Dogwatcher]

Roger, interesting you say that, as I've turned my two syllable name into a singular.
A very good point.

[Footy Chick]

and it has to be a name that cant be made fun of..eg; Luke (Puke), Bart (fart) etc..

[Dogwatcher]

FC, my wife's a teacher, we've got those bases covered

[JAS]

You probably don't need telling but I'd say think very carefully about the ways a name can be shortened and what the initials might spell or be close to spelling...now't so cruel as kids edit* and FC

[Footy Chick]

Just call him Roju...

[Ian]

my sons name is in that list (no its not Fruitbat )

Likewise

[RustyCage]

Are you after a normal, traditional type name, or one of those new modern pick 6 letters and hope they make a word type names?

[GWW]

I hear "Apple" is popular these days

[Pup]

What was the outcome of the girls name DW?

Just give him the first names of the 21 players who played in Central's first premiership - I was going to but never had a kid!

my wife and I were deciding the name of our "then" unborn child and she mentioned Lachlan as a boys name.
nice name that is but when "it" gets older it will be locksmith I said.......
Lucky, as it was a female and her middle name was nicole but her first name wasn't Anna.
