    If it was a girl, Elaine, but that would be weird because that is my name! 😂

    I’d never give them any names that they could be picked on for. So no unusual names such as X Æ A-12

    I wanted to name my daughter Fenchurch, but my wife wouldn’t agree. Daughter is 16 now. Still call her Fenchurch.

    I could give you an answer now, but that answer would be obsolete by the time of filling the paperwork. Only uuidgen knows my true answer.

    I would like to call them Ramond Luxury Yacht. But i won’t because nobody would pronounce it correctly.

    Now seriously, we deliberately chose first names for our children that would be easy to pronounce in most languages. They also got slightly more exotic second names in case they didn’t like their first names.

    My wife shot down Matias.

    I’d never pick a name that uses “eigh” instead of “y” also never Keith.

    I wanted to name my daughter Zelda. Mrs Pano vetoed it.

    The Z makes it sound sexy. Also Moxy got shot down.

    I really wanted to name my daughter Ceilidh, but my wife would not stand for it. I was even willing to compromise down to Ceili! She also objected to Cadence and Victory.

    Somehow got her to agree to Gynhwyfar and Clothilde and Yetska, though.

    I heard that it is supposedly forbidden in my country to name a child “Satan”. I live in a pretty progressive/ not very religious country, so I find that absolutely moronic. I would totally ask if it was possible to assign that as a second name.

    And even though my low low bar, I would probably never name my child after any brand, place or food item. Names that sugest stupidity are also off the list.

    I think Basil is a really cute name, but I think my SO will say no. The opposite where there are five Sams, three Sara(h)s, and two Maxes (M&F) in a class of 30 is annoying though.

    I will name my kid what I want to name them - part of my desires when choosing a name are to pick something they won’t hate.
