Azrael is okay, just not for me. He's the one who likes it, and when I guessed why, he agreed, so that's what I'm basing the "cool" thing on. Plus, it's from his background, which is not
Christian. It reminds me of a comic book character--Azazel, Nightcrawler's father.
Azrael is the angel of death though, and so that just plain makes it a no go for me, even if the name were to be my style.
I still think
Nathaniel nn
Nate could work. I'll just have to keep it on the back burner and bring it up here and there, I guess.
Zeke actually sounds a little dorky to me, but it's okay enough. I was just thinking that maybe he would like the names because they have a Z in them.
We actually have a number of girls' names that we can kind of agree on. He seems less interested on if the girls stand out for "weird" names than the boys, which I guess is pretty common in society.
