    when I have a kid, her name will be Kyo, so I'm going to be one of those parents.
    Also, I have a friend named Kineta, which I love.
    Male friend named Lynn
    Female friend named Allyne

    edit: some girl on Teen Mom wanted to name her kid Twilight. I'm pretty sure that would cause the apocalypse...

    Just recently I found out that on 11-11-11 a baby was born and they named the kid after a character from a video game (Skyrim).
    It was for a freaking contest!!!!!!! The name itself is odd... Dovahkiin. The mother isn't even into gaming... not sure about the father and they have won FREE games for life from the game company.

    I feel sorry for the kids & would sure 'nuff like to smack some peoples parents.
    No surprise why some kids hate their parents.

    I did go to school with a couple of girls with, what I think, are pretty names.
    Charity Faith & Patience Hope

    my middle name is Hope, which was unique growing up...but my brother used to call me Hopeless which kinda scarred me for life ;) ...on the other hand, his middle name is Richard, so you can guess what I called him growing up...LOL...

My ex wanted to name our son Jack Daniels I was able to get him to go with Justin Douglass. and my yougest is Makayla Geanna. so none of them are wild any

    What then about Ckhristophpher?
    Sure, Christopher is a good name but... why make it so damn difficult to write?
  • One of my friends had a daughter and named her Summer Rayne. I kinda like the name actually.
