Luckily it rarely gets used outside my family. Whenever a friend hears, it's awkward explaining to them that you're named after an Indian cartoon bear.
I dated a girl named Elizabeth for a long time. She hated the contraction "Liz" so she went by "Izzle". I always thought it was awesome how she pulled that off without it sounding stupid somehow.
Oh and never name your child "Holden". I echo this from previous posters.
Holden Caulfield is a horrible character and was written to be a horrible character. Do not name a child after that dickbag of a pseudo-intellectual icon.
I have often thought about naming options for my future offspring. Im tempted to name my first son "Enzo" since my last name is ridiculously Italian.

Most of the names I have picked out for my kids are family names. Stephen Wayne, Arthur Joeseph, Julie Ann, things like that.
I like German names, though. Dietrich, Alarich, Gerhardt, Reinhardt... they're awesome.

I think alliterative names are the best
Unfortunately, not a lot of cool names start with "R"

I did know a pretty cool dude by the name of Grady once
he was a pretty big nerd though. wore sandals with socks and owned some kind of tiny Japanese UMPC-type thing he imported
I hadn't even realized you'd moved out of state
what area you heading back to?
Even if it's a girl?
More like Ivanna Catchpole
like Islington or Stratford
Holden is ok if you want him to be fucked up forever
Grady just sounds like grody gravy, and is not a good name at all
nice work on the girl names, though
Name him H'rothgar.
The Apocalypse Has Never Been More Fun
Secret Satan Wishlist!! Thinkgeek Wish List
HROTHGAR!
Jo?
Elizabeth, shortened to Bess?
Seriously.
I think Liz is a better contraction
RAISE HIM TO BE AN ART FAG.
But being called liz basically sidelines her to being the quirky, single friend in every rom com film ever.
And Hellboy
It works for a boy or a girl.
or Soda.
Who was that guy who was all like, "I'm so glad my parents named me what they did it's totally affected my life btw it's Phoenix"
that was weird
i am phoenix
On the one hand, little kids are fun and I'm great with them.
On the other, sometimes I want to kick them until they die.
Are you phoenix, or The Phoenix
important distinction
The problem there is you run the risk of attracting horrifying monsters to slaughter your family.
See, that's why you have twins and name the other one Beowulf.
there was a kid in my friend's creative writing class freshman year who introduced himself as "rob, but you can call me phoenix"
I am both, actually.
I am Phoenix "The Phoenix" Phoenixson
'spergin hardcore
Man how'd you get a nickname like that
Ah ha!

an epic adventure, fighting nazis and evil japanese circa WW2.
coming to a theatre near you, july
Then I realised I'd be dooming him to being a pompous asshole.
edit: my surname is pronounced LEE-ANDER by the way. Not lean-durr, or le'aunder, or any other stupid shit you can come up with.
because its you
