Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

My brother and I are both fond (in the humorous rather than serious sense) of the name Xerxes, add in the middle name Trevor and the kid would have the initials XTC.

Well, Carole of course

Zigor is not bad either

With a friend of mine, we are trying to come up with names for our future child But we can't proceed, since we didn't find any compromise.

My offers :
Vladimir
Alexandre
Nicolas
Theo

Her offers :
Pierre-Alexandre
Linux

The dilemma !

I thought Lenin's first name would be an acceptable compromise Yet, she didn't accept it.

Linux is the name of one of the biggest competitors to Windows, and is derivated from the first name of its Finnish creator, Linus Torvalds.

Agreed Ted. To me, it was even more of a firm no-no than Pierre-Alexandre (which is a terrible name enough already).
And we haven't even started to think of the name in case it's a girl

Ack, my head hurts already

How about Madeline? That's a really nice French-German type name, very classy.

Hmm, I'll keep that in mind when we'll start discussing girl's names. It's a tad old-fashioned, but original, so she might like it.

These always remind me of Homer Simpsons ranting about how the gays "have taken over manly names like Bruce, Lance and Julian".

I've always been partial to "Atilla".

I think it would make a great name for a pug.

My mum always had a soft spot for the name 'Gatske' (now there's a good Friesan name; it's pronounced Hots-cuh). So much so that she almost called my sister it, until my dad persuaded her to settle on the far more pronunceable 'Rachel' instead.
