what do you think of the name Curtis?

Personally, i wouldn't pick it for a baby, except that it's the fathers name, so when we thought we might be pregnant, i thought of it as a middle name. I didn't like it when i first met him, but it really grew on me.

what are your thoughts on naming a baby after someone whose name you don't neccessarily love but the person is important enough that you want to name the baby after them to honor them?

I only know of one Kurt (which I think was short for Kurtis). He was a Junior who went by Kurt as school and "Randy" (short for Randall, his (and his father's) middle name) at home.

As for using a name you don't like to honor some one you do...

Maybe give the kid the same initials? Or, since Curtis apparently means "courteous", look up other names that mean courteous or polite?
