My first exposure to the Dragonlance books was meeting a kid in my school named Raistlin.
Now I wonder just how high his parents were when they thought that was a good idea.
>>47227381
Tulsleah, and encourage him to go into medical school, specializing in aged care.

My wife and I are considering Varda Meira for a bilingual (Hebrew/Quenya) pun. Varda is "rose" in Hebrew (a borrowing from Persian), Meira is a feminine form of Meir and means more-or-less "Enkindler". It should go without saying that we're both huge Tolkien geeks.
>>47227827
The one minor problem is that "Rose" in Hebrew is masculine, not feminine, ורד not ורדה.
I mean I suppose you can feminize the flower if you really wanted to, but it's not quite proper. Plus, you run into some double construction given that Varda is also Quenya, meaning "lofty" or "sublime".
>>47227881
One, it's a not-overly-uncommon girl's name in Israel, or so I'm told.
Two, the idea is that it becomes Varda the (star) Enkindler, which is one of Varda's titles (S:Gilthoniel/Q:Tintallë). Not sure what you mean by "double construction". I think "pun" was the wrong word, rather that it'd be a nice name in Hebrew and a Tolkien reference at the same time.
>>47228227
Also, natch, the noun is masculine, but the feminine form is occasionally attested. Loan-words can be weird like that. Oh, and in Aramaic it's Varda with an aleph at the end (can't work non-Latin characters easily on the phone, alas), not sure if masculine or feminine, though.

Would it be weird to name your baby daughter after one of your waifus?
My sons names are Tyr and Griffin.
>>47232338
>tfw there are actual people named griffon
That shit should be considered child abuse.
>>47227381
>If you weren't you, what would not-you do?
Literally any answer is equally valid. Someone who is not me could name their kids Lemonjello and La-a because they'd be different and wouldn't give a fuck what I prefer.
Now if I was still myself, and forced at gunpoint to pick a name, I'd go with a normal-but-rare-sounding one like Jace or Chandra.
Matrim Cauthon.
Just call him Matt, keep Cauthon as his middle name.
>>47232479
Are you kidding? Why? to a larger portion of the population its just a regular name and im not even that guy
>>47232546

>>47232559

I guess it depends on the location, but where I'm from you might as well name your child Pegasus as Griffon
>>47232590
http://www.whattoexpect.com/forums/baby-name-game/topic/is-griffin-too-trendy.html
So this is a link discussing if the name Griffin isTOO trendy
>>47232621
I fail to see how this relevant to what I said.
>>47232590
http://www.babycenter.com/baby-names-griffin-1921.htm
This link says that according to statistics its the 277th most common boys name in 2016 and its less popular then it used to be.
thats not even my name I dont know why im trying this hard. I just think its ridiculous you think tha is child abuse
>>47232649
Because you made a statement and I called out that statement and provided evidence to support my opinion...thats how its relevant.
I would further go on to say that pegasus is probably not even used as a name anywhere and youre projecting your opinion onto the wider area that you live.
>>47232649
Then you lack both imagination and common sense.
Me and the wife, if we have a daughter, will probably name her Tinuviel
>>47232660
That's odd, I hadn't even heard of it being used as a name until less than a year ago. My point was about people naming their kids on a lark and those same kids being made fun of for the rest of their life because their parents wanted to be clever. I guess in most of the US Griffin wouldn't fall into that category.
>>47232680
I said that griffin is not common where I'm from and you posted a link to forum post by a literal who as if that somehow changes that.

Mieli (from The Quantum Thief book, sci-fi)
The name is rather unique, but still sounds right and proper in Finnish (it means "mind") and fits in well with old historical names, so it doesn't stand out awkwardly. It would reveal my high power level to those in the know, but is stealthy among normalfags.

Arya and Luna are literally the name combination for his unborn daughters and I'm actually starting to suspect that he is you.

Does he understand how genetics work?

Why not just name them Mary and Sue?

i'd look through legendary magic cards of the appropriate gender if i was lost. I like Aurelia for a girl. I'd like to say Daxos for a boy but I feel like that is too weird compared to Aurelia.

Can't blame her, really.
Avoid X's, Z's and Y's.
You don't trust a person with an X or a Z in their name.
>>47233101
Xzavier must be a huge problem for you.
Also my name is only 2 letters and has a y instead of vowel
>>47232976
Well since my wife is part of my gaming group I'm ok on that front.
As for the daughter, that is at least a year out so I'll deal with it then. Probably get my spawn into gaming as well when they are young anyway

I've got some bad news for you.

I wouldn't trust an Elizabeth or Eliza, sounds like a bunch of Vampires.
I wouldn't want to be alone with a Dexter.
I have an aunt named Suzanne and she is a narcissistic bitch, much like a vampire.
So no, I'm still not convinced.
>>47233672
Well, that's just autism, and I can't help you there.

This. Kids aren't fucking pets. Is the name something you would hate being called? Yes? Then pick something else.
My little brother's name sounds somewhat like "Orc", so that's how I've been calling him ever since he finished reading The Lord of the Rings.

I live in Germany, so anything interesting that isn't burrowed from the real world is against the law.
Harry Blackstone or Copperfield.
It's unusual to have multiple middle names nowadays, and middlenames are the safest to use since people rarely use their full names.
