Billie Joe Armstrong from Green Day named his son Jakob Danger, just so he can say, "Danger is my middle name."Nixon as a first name isn't great either.

If someone introduced themselves with that, I would totally think they'd said "Nick's in danger!" And probably insist we went off to rescue him. :D

I don't think Nixon is the greatest Presidential association name, personally. That being said it's a cool name. Danger on the other hand... dear lordy
"Danger is my middle name!" *gets some laughs*.. "Wait, you're serious?"

Maybe they really didn't like Nixon...?Bizarre.I... that's all I have to say. Very, very odd. And the poor kid going through life being called Nixon!

Danger is my middle name. The reason they probably used... Nixon... not a fan.

Oy. I actually know several little boys who have gotten Danger as a middle name, because their parents like to say "now he can say his middle name is danger!" and think they're being cute and original (kind of like there were tons of Jesse James [last name]s in the 90s.) I think it's kind of cheesy, and with Nixon? Ack!

They think they're being cute and original, but I found 4 baby boys last year with the middle name Danger, and 4 so far this year (in addition there was one whose first name is Danger!) Not to mention as the kid grows up, the joke will get very old, very fast.

Sounds horrible for a real name, but would make an awesomely cheesy character...'My name's Danger. Nixon Danger.'Perhaps they just wanted him to use the 'it's my middle name' thing?

Bleh.

Yeah, that is an odd one. I take it they didn't really think that one through.

"Danger's my middle name baby" Danger is comical and I'm sure dad was the one that picked it. Nixon doesn't make a bad middle name (my great-great-grandfather was named Riley Nixon), but as a FN, it's not so good and almost as comical as Danger.

Oh wow, I'm cracking up! Humor aside though,this poor child will live with this name forever... or until he is able to change it!
