What would you name your children/adopted slaves/incomprehensible offspring?

My first born son would be Champion. Champion Lugosi Clair.

Second son would be Captain Mountain Clair.

First daughter would be Princess Hatchback Clair.

Second daughter would be Alligator Yogurt Clair.

all of them would adore me

I don't think I would put a lot of effort into naming my offspring, so I'd call it John or Amy. Respective to gender of course.

I would name my son after the Modem.

"We have a new student today class! Stand up and tell us your name!"

"BEE BOING BUNG BEEEEEP CHSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

"Erm... Go to the Nurse."

"But-"

"GO!"

I do know someone who's dad insisted that his firstborn child was going to be named after him irrespective of gender. Thus her name was Peta.


As for me, my hypothetical male children will be named Gabriel, Zach, Rafael and Random.

For boys names, she tells me Robert after Robert the Bruce, or William for the Conqueror.

She loved history in college, and got my eventual name picked by a lecturer there. Funnily enough, said lecturer is now teaching me for history from the 1900s. Small world~

This thread has made me think what I would actually call my children, if I have any. I've decided to name them after people who influenced me in my life, mainly musicians ('cause I'm that original yo)

Boy - Danny, Dave, Saul or Marco.
Girl - Sabine, Angela or Angelica.

It's fucking stupid, but I'd like to name my son after myself, then stick "II" on the end. I don't think I'd go through with it, because I know for a fact that the other person who would have a say in it would not like it one bit.

Less misnomer, more redundant. Actually, no, it will be a misnomer, an outright lie. Nothing about their reproduction will be natural.

Besides, which first name would you rather have? "Natural" or "Progeny"?
