    My oldest Daughter is named Nia. I stole it off of Nia Peoples not because I like her music I just liked her name
    If we would have had a boy he would have been Ozzy

    My daughter's name is Ariana - same as Dumbledores sister in Harry Potter-- completely unintentional she was born before the books came out-- a little annoyed at that when I read the books- also annoyed that now Ariana Grande is famous-- Tried to give my daughters unique names

    My youngest son is Bodhi......Patrick Swayze's name in the movie Point Break

    My daughter is Logan. Only knew 1 person named Logan (a boy) back then and it seemed like a strange name. Then heard it used as a female's name years later on a soap opera. Loved it!

    My daughter is named Parker from the show The Pretender. It was actually the characters last name, they called her Miss Parker & I wanted it for my daughters first name.

    If my 7 month old had been a boy, the middle name would have been Leland (it's Leeloo instead), but after Leland, MI actually, where my husband proposed.

    My son is Niklas - spelling inspired by quite a few Scandinavian hockey players mostly on the Red Wings ;)

    Kronwall is one of the best! My best friend had 3 kids and all were named after general hospital people.

    Not my kid, but a friend of mine named his son Auron after the character from Final Fantasy X. I've been toying with the idea of naming a future child Vincent after Vincent Valentine from Final Fantasy VII, but so far haven't convinced my better half.

    I don't have any children yet, but I've had the name Rory picked out for a daughter (if I have one) because I love her and really enjoyed watching Gilmore Girls for so many seasons with my mom. :smile:

    I wanted to name my son Rory after the character in Doctor Who - the hubby was having none of it.

    We eventually settled on Christopher - a nod to both Christopher Eccleston (ninth Doctor) and Christopher Robbin from Winnie the Pooh!!

    Saffy?
