Go traditional.

William, Henry, Duncan ... all class.

Though, if I have a boy, I'll probably stick with Boba Fett.

He used to say it was their last name that would get them in trouble, not their first names.

It gets harder as you go along. Having our 3rd kid in July, and we're still having problems coming up with names. This kid will be the 9th grandchild, unfortunately grandchildren 2, 3, 6 and 8 each have 3 middle names. So that's 16 names taken that we don't want to recycle (I included the 1st name for those trying to figure out the match).

Like any normal human ... you might pronounce this Lee-ah.

Nope ... meet Le-dash-ah. The (-) dash isn't silent.

True story.
Are you sure?

Unless you posted it on CP as well. That is a pretty well known internet meme. It's in the Funny Pics thread somewhere.

I think last time there was a girl named "Champagne". How long before she is a show-girl?

Not a baby name, but the funkiest name I've seen is still a boxer named Kwanjai 3k Battery. No joke.

I saw him fight, and in fairness he changed his name to that. The company sponsors fighters in Thailand and basically gave him everything that he has today, so he changed his name out of respect. Not something that I woud do personally, but he made that choice willingly.

As long as the parents who named their kid Soda are Seinfeld fans, the name isn't as lame as you think.

I rather like the name Liam. Mostly because it's my name!

When I was growing up I had only heard of one other kid named Liam and Liam Neeson. Now its one of the most popular young names! Looks like my folks were 25 years ahead of the curve.

Actually if the kids parents are Seinfeld fans (and presumably "Soda" has something to do with Seinfeld), it's much lamer than I thought.

I agree, Apollo and Maximus are awesome names.
