That you received?
Mine came from D, and was only semi-serious: Merlin Batman! He still laments that I said no 
Runner up was also from D, pretty seriously, and which I legit considered for a day or two: Maple!
You might also enjoy...
-
Rex, as in Rex Ryan, he coach of the Jets. I actually don't hate Rex but I think it's a bit too trendy for me
-
@lovehoneybee: ha I like Maple!
DH loves Steel and Wolf. I don't think I could do either!
-
My mom lobbied somewhat hard for Cercei (spelling?) from game of thrones. NO
-
DH watches Grey's Anatomy, and last week they suggested "Agamemnon". That's all I thought of when I saw this thread.
-
DH kept suggesting Tibor and Filbert.
-
@redsmarties: Ha, that's funny, my coworkers were talking about that episode yesterday and Agamemnon was suggested to me as a possible future baby name
I had completely forgotten that until just now!
-
@redsmarties: Same!!!!
-
The name of the street DD was born on. Dumb.
-
MIL wanted us to name DD Zendaya....which is totally pretty in its own way but I would never name my child that. DH said Rupert Motorcycle for a boy lol but he was joking (i hope
)
-
I know a baby Maple actually. They call her May. I also know someone who jus gave their baby boy the middle name Danger. His last name is Fish. Danger Fish...ack.
DH likes the name Daphne for a girl which seemed rather silly to me but I know one of those, too!
-
@Grace: Filbert is my pups name!
-
My husband has proposed Holman (as in the correctional facility) and Eustace. No. Just no.
-
A drunk guy in New Orleans said I should name my baby Phillip after his even drunker friend...and call him Flip for short, haha. I actually considered it for a minute, I mean, what if it was fate?
-
I had a dream that Gary Oldman suggested we name our son Sirius. In my dream, I ran into him on the street (cuz at the time he was IRL filming in Philly) and told him that we had just gotten a cat and named her Padfoot (true). He pointed to my bump and asked if we had a name for him, and I said no, and he told me we should name him Sirius.
-
DH says Roger, to which I object big time. Once we ran into a mom at Target who said,, "Roger, honey come here..." Her son looked like Cousin Eddie's kid. I told DH we should specially reserve the name for our first dog
-
Taylor. I'm a ridiculously huge Taylor Swift fan, I even went to see her in concert when I was 39 weeks pregnant with my son (yeah, that was crazy) and everyone from my MIL to my co-workers thought I should use it. But as much as I love T-Swift, unisex names are just not my style.
This time around my MIL keeps suggesting 'L' names because her kid's names both start with the same letter and I guess she thinks I should do the same. No offense to anyone who likes to matching first letter thing, but again, it's just not my style, I kind of hate it to be honest! Hopefully she lets that go soon, because no matter how many times I tell her that we're not using another L name, she keeps on going.
-
Watermelon.
@lovehoneybee: I just looked up Merlin to see if it was a legit name. I kind of like it with our blander than bland last name. But no, it's 100% wizard.
-
My nephew wanted us to name DS either Boy Boy or Quentin lol.
-
Hallelujah. Halle for short. My DH was really serious, too.
-
@T-Mom: Oh my goodness. Hahaha!
-
Cordless or breshawn for a girl and telvin or sincere for a boy but I know a lil boy name sincere and he was the sweetest
-
@Running Elley: yeah I had to convince him that she would 100% be bullied and then he dropped it
-
Well if I were to go by the names where I'm from....Godknows, precious, blessing, beauty, dorkus, striker, goalie, keeper (world cup names), godlove....anything you can think of!
-
My 5 yo niece wanted me to name DS robot so that he could go around saying I am a robot.
Now I just love clothing and other items with robots on it. My SIL got him a robot Easter basket from target.
-
Sea Bass...
Since this is the year of the horse according to the Chinese zodiac, DH thought it would be funny to suggest a "strong horse name", so he exclaimed, "Sea Bass!" Except he meant "Sea Biscuit" (like the movie). We nearly died laughing...
And then we decided we liked the name Sebastian for a boy... and he said that "Sea Bass" could be a nick name, HAH!
-
My dad suggests that every baby be named either Willie Mays, or Wilhelmina Mays.
DH has some gems but I can never remember them.
-
My dad suggested Colvin... for our girl.... no idea where he came up with that lol (I think maybe it's an irish name? He'd suggested several other "good irish names" like colleen and meghann (in the "true irish spelling")).
-
@lovehoneybee: @Corduroy: My grandfather's given name was Merlyn Earl. No one ever called him that though - he went by a nickname of his last name.
-
Pervis. DH thought it would be awesome.
-
Some of these suggestions are making me LOL...
DH is a fan of Hawthorne.
-
DH wanted Dallas, after the Dallas Cowboys. Umm, our dog is already named Cowboy. That's quite enough for our household.
-
@coopsmama: i know of a baby Maple too.
-
My husband used to joke that we'd name our dd after him, so Kevina Josephina. He was definitely mostly joking. Now that she's here and is his mini-me, I'll jokingly call her Kevina sometimes
-
@Honeygold89: cordless?! as in, without an umbilical cord? LOL!
@Running Elley: boy boy! hahaha
-
@sorrycharlie: pretty much or like a cordless phone lol
These are some crazy funny names lol
@grizz: DH works with a Dallas
-
@coopsmama: @birdofafeather: I think it's a cute name, and we did legit consider it for a bit, but ultimately it didn't meet all of our criteria so it was cut from the list
-
I didn't really get any super crazy ones, but my stepMIL suggested Bernice to my SIL. BERNICE!
-
@grizz: I have a really good friend of mine named Dallas (girl). It really suits her.
-
DH suggested Miel (the French word for honey) - he said he was 50% serious which makes me think he was 100% serious!
ETA - my nieces name is Soleil (the French word for sun).
I had completely forgotten that until just now!
