I know that Mouse and Chris and all probably already have names picked out for the new baby, but I thought it might be fun if we threw in our two cents worth!

Here’s a couple from the baby Dragon and me:  Baxter, Theodore, Kaylek?, Griffin, and of course, David Alexander.

(For a girl, I have always liked Alethia (Ah, LAY thee ah) )

FWIW, he does have both a first and middle name. Not to say that there’s anything wrong with this game, just that you shouldn’t be disappointed if they don’t change the names to your guesses.

I figured…...

But I also thought that with everyone we have n here from all of the different locations, it might be fun to hear whet they would come up with.

Hmm.  Well, it ought to be a name that stands out, so that you can call him in a crowd and he’ll know you’re addressing him.  Something where he’s not likely to have lots of other kids in his class at school with the same name.  Something that will avoid confusion.  So. . .

Some good strong solid manly names there for you!  I’ll have to keep some of those in mind (if you don’t use them, that is) for if I have a son of my own some day.

Okay, so if I died today and was up for reincarnation as your and Smerk’s child Acci, I might want to reconsider and wait a bit?

What’s wrong, you don’t want to be named Hotepsekhemwytoons?

Acci’s names are best if you add appropriate titles to them”
‘Scourge of Renthar’
‘Defiler of Virgins’
‘Flame of the Mud Swamps’
‘He Who Insults Your Mother’
etc.

Not if I have any say in the matter…

Would you prefer something more traditionally Aussie, such as Yarrawonga or Narbethong?

I’d be old and gray before I could even spell it.  Could I just have a symbol for me name?

I don’t know about his real name but I think Hippopotamouse would make a great nickname.  Just shorten it to hippomouse until he learns to spell.

Or “PottyMouse” might be end up being a fitting name.
