I'm guessing from Indiana Jones... only other trilogy I can think of is LOTR, but I REALLY hope you didn't get named Legolas or Aragorn.

Or Gollum.

the dystopian in me requires me to ask you to name the spawn of your loins god.

I mean cant you just imagine a kid in his or her class going home to their bible thumping parents telling them god was in his class.

I've always liked the name Vincent myself, but whatever you choose, I'd suggest going with something plain and white sounding, if all the reports of how many people don't get their resume even looked at because their name is weird/sounds like it comes from a black family is anything to go on.

My neighbor actually had a really smart idea:

She named her daughter with a boy's middle name....so that if she gets into the business world and doesn't want to hit a glass ceiling, she can go by

L. James Horton

(names changed but you get the idea)

I like the names Lily and Jade... I have a second cousin named Jade... but it's a boy, white as can be, with blond hair. My cousin is a hippie, i guess... she also has another blond child named Raven.

I'm completely out of the movie loop, I have no TV, and watch no movies, so I have no idea what's coming out. I will guess however, Adrian.

Hey, I think you might be right!

ADRIIAAAAAAN!

Sorry Starwind, if Maggie is right, then I bet you've never heard that before

Alfred- Wise council of elders, and guider of heroes.

Gavin, white hawk in service of the king.

Darshan, the wise philosopher.

Drazen, the most precious of all things.

Chester, of and from a fortified settlement.

Theron, the hunter.

and of course, Bruce Campbell.

My naming philosophy is to use normal names for the first name and then go apeshit on the middle names.

Ex: John Minotaur Avalanche Smith

That way the kid can go through school with a relatively healthy social life but if the kid grows up and wants to be called something unique, then the middle names are there for him.
