Couple fights to name baby 'Metallica'

[Autumn2004]

I say live and let live, if they want to name their kid that name so be it. But, I think the child should have an option if they want their name changed when they are older. Autumn is a more popular name now around here with little kids but when I was in school I was the only one out of my very large school. I liked being different. My sister's name was extremely common and they had to go by their first name's and last initial.

I know of a billy and harry butts. They own a local plumbing company.

My sons have very unusual names. Oldest named after dad, and younger...well, hard to have one Sherlock and one Bob.

My daughter, however, has an old-fashioned family name that we picked out before we were even married. Back then it was much less common, but now it has gained popularity. We debated before using it, but couldn't come up with anything we loved more. This is actually her first year of school that she hasn't been one of two or three others. But she doesn't seem to mind.

My middle one is the only one who doesn't like his name...mostly his middle name b/c it is a unisex name - actually a last name. (like Cameron). He thinks it is a girl name. He tells us all the time that he will change his middle name when he turns 18. Actually, I wish I had given him my dad and brother's name for a middle name, but I didn't want to step on any toes. As it turns out, my brother said he would NEVER use it (??) and I could have. :doh:

If they want to name their child Metallica, they should be allowed to do so.

I went to high school with someone named Uranus. Had an inquiry on a condo once from a Vanilla Cloud. Met a couple who named their son Axton. I thought it was a cool name. Those stand out.

I agree. Name child what parents want to.

I have never heard of gov. rules on children names. Very strange.

George Forman (sp?) named all his sons George! (I think he has 4 or 5 sons)
I am going to admit that my sons are also all named after their father.... With variations.... He has no middle name and they do..

Don't forget his daughter, Georgina...:crazy:

I like that name. Of course he is on Death Row - so perhaps it was a self fufilling prophecy?

I heard of "lemongelo" and his brother "orangelo" being arrested at the Leon County Jail years ago - but the spelling of their names were LemonJello and OrangeJello. They were brothers.

I think I'd be much better at naming animals. "Edgar Allen Paw" for instance. ;-)
