I always threaten my parents with calling a son "Wolfgang"

Either that or "Ralph"

I have a baby on the way at the moment (due Oct 9). In one of my more insane moments I suggested the name 'Emperor' to my spouse in jest. Therefore, the full name of the child would be Emperor Sulicich. Fitting I thought.

Seriously though, names at the top of the list are:
Girl: Margarita Barbara
Boy: William Robert

Both names come from my grandparents.

I have a rule: no names from alcoholic beverages!! Such as...

Brandi
Shandi
Sherri

Of course, that would include Margarita

Also, what is it with surnames as first names? I've seen lots stupid names as;

Moreton
Dalton
Jackson
Anderson
Johnson
Grady
Connor
Madison

Boy doesn't matter. Richard.

But a name like Isabelle or Maybelle or something is real purdy. "Belle" defines a good female name.

oh and Jackson is probably the only last name that sounds alright as a first name. It sounds better than plain old Jack.

One of the actresses on that show "ParentHood" has the first name REAGAN!

As an addition, alot of the locals here like english words as names... some interesting ones I have seen include (and I am not bullshi**** you here):

Physcology
Hatred
Blessing

In Malawi the present trend is to use Cell Phone style words such as: Nokia, Airtime etc etc

It never ceases to amaze me....

Well in China if you go by the meaning of the Chinese words there are names like "hate water" and such.

Initially, it was:

But after finding the agreement, my gf changed her mind, and we're back to square one.

Yep, that my grandfather's first name, and my father's second name.

But I still hope that, by the time I have children, it won't sound like a name for old people

It doesn't, at least over here.

My great-uncle, I think, on my father's side was named Alexander. I was named after him.

i don't understand yall obsession with anglo-saxon and germanic names... there's so much more poetic beauty in a romantic language name.

I always thought Etienne was a girls name But only because of the band St. Etienne :ashamed:

I'm never sure what I'd name mine. Probably Anna, Sarah or Jen for a girl, but no idea for a boy.
