The 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?

...is this post even serious?

If it is, then Alfonso's a good name, and Alf and Fonzi both are good nicknames although it's far from my favorite name. Proffit is just a no way in hell. Sorry.

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.

hah. I actually entertained the idea of naming my first born kid Denver for a while because I'm such a big Nuggets fan.

sounds like you should probably leave the naming of your kids to your wife.

What's the point in trolling a baby names community?

Unless you're serious, and then I fear for your child. But I doubt you are.

No, but you were close. It's Jack, short for Jackass.

I'm a fan of Alfproffit Guymac Boyghavis.

I completely disagree with you. Alfproffit Guymac Boyghavis is not a legit name. Alfguy MacProffit Ghavisboy sounds much more classy.

I think if you have a daughter, you should name her Pegasus Sunshine. If it's a boy, Baku Andronicus.

it'd be perfect if the boy was a "small person"... oh the irony would make me laugh everyday. :)
