Dylan
Benjamin
Griffin

WDYTO Ricochet He, for some reason, likes nutty names: Ricochet, Seven, Maeby... ack!

Griffin's not a bad name. As for Ricochet; maybe you could name him Richard and just use Ricochet as a term of endearment. If he's willing and cool enough to pull it off, his buddies could call him that as well. I think it's just a courtesy to not give a child TOO bizarre a proper name.

Alexander -very classy. My friend has a son named Alexander Nikolai.
Dylan -this trend is over.
Benjamin -don't like it, but I love Benji.
Griffin -sounds like a verb, as if it is a sysmonym for coughing or something. One members on here once gave the example of "Grampa sure is griffin' over there."
As for Ricochet, I don't like it, but I don't like Griffin either.
Seven (on the other hand) is a guilty pleasure and Sevan really is a name (try the database).Other names you *may* like...

Thanks for the ammo!Now I can tell DH that Ricochet is awful... & I have proof! If I think it's bad, and all you think it's bad, then there's no way he can defend it!! :)

Griffin Alexander woul be nice, with, perhaps Dylan Benjamin?Ricochet is terrible (and reminds of Pinochet)...

I'm not really sure about Griffin. I find it masculine and kind of wimpy at the same time!As for middle names, I'd probably go for a safer "normal" name, how about:
Griffin Daniel
Griffin Anthony
Griffin Michael
Griffin James
Griffin David
Griffin ThomasYou might like the names Asher, Dashiell, Dominic, Anton, Lochlann / Lachlan, Nathaniel, Owen, Rory?LOL at Ricochet, I don't think it would work! Although, there is a DJ called Rick O'Shea here, don't know if it's his real name. Ricochet could be cool for a pet though!Image hosted by Photobucket.com

Ricochet is interesting, sounds like something Robert Rodriguez would use, his sons are named Rebel, Rocket, Racer & Rogue.Seven isn't too bad, and Maeby sounds better for a girl, but it isn't too bad either.

Thanks for the suggestions, Ciarda!! :)That's neat about Robert Rodriguez's sons, thanks for the info. WDYTO Ricochet Rhodenizer? That's our last name & I'm finding it really hard to find suitable first names. I don't know if a long fn is too much, what with the really long ln. I kept my name when we got married because I thought Jennifer Rhodenizer was too long. Any thoughts?

Ricochet reminds me of the band
I love Alexander, Dylan, Benjamin, and Griffin but Seven, Maeby, and Ricochet are not my style at all
