Jun. 7th, 2007 08:11 amThe lady wife is about to push out a kid and I need a name. I’ve been thinking of some.
Alf - It would be named after my dad, whose name is Alfonso. Besides all the Alien Life Form jokes, I think it’s a good name.
Proffit - I think it’s the name of troll in a book I read. But for this name to work, you have to disassociate it with words it sounds like. Like profit or prophet, because the first sounds exploitative and the second sounds presumptuous.
A really simple tough guy name like Guy or Mac or Boy. My uncle had a dog named Boy. It was a good dog.
Ghavis - I came up with this one by mashing my forearm on the keyboard and adding some choice vowels.
And in case there is some horrendous error and it’s actually a girl, I also really like the name Denver for a girl. Huge Broncos fan over here. Denver or Elway. Or maybe even Shana Hannah.
Any thoughts?

Guy sounds too yuppie-gay to me. Mac is a good nickname. Boy is a definite no, although reading that made me laugh. Let me laugh again. Not a good laugh this time. I like how you got Ghavis, though.
I like Denver and Elway for girl names, although I have a feeling that you're joking. And Shana and Hannah separately, not together, unless you would like to be hacked to death by your offspring.
And those are my thoughts.

I do like Ghavis. It even anagrams to Shagvi. Sexy.
I met a girl named Denver once. I would have fallen in love with her if she wasn't a Raiders fan.
Thank you for all your thoughts.
