Inspired from the previous post...

If you had to name your kid after a chemical element, which one would you use?

I think I'd go with Zinc.

Boy--Tungsten
Girl--Flourine

Hehe.

*Fluorine, sorry. I'm lysdexic.

Krypton, for a boy, definitely. I'm a huge Superman fan. Mercury, that's no different than some other trippy hippy names out there.

Iron and Neon.

Stop trying to make my brain work. D:

I guess mine is kind of easy, someone mentioned it in the other post. Xenon/Zenon. I hate to admit how much I really love that stupid movie.

[ladyincendiary.livejournal.com]

That movie they used to show on Disney Channel? I was all about that movie for a very long time.

[cremepuff.livejournal.com]

I'm the one that mentioned it! And I, too, hate to admit how much I love that movie! :)

Cesium for a boy.

Arsenic for a girl.

Mercury would be a good gender-neutral name. I'm also partial to Beryllium.

[ivegotbaggage.livejournal.com]

Arsenic = win

[chocklit-frog.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure Beryllium is anmed after someone called Beryl. or am I crazy?

Carbon
Argon
Barium
Copper
Gallium
Xenon

[serdyuchkafan.livejournal.com]

Neon
Chlorine
Silver
Cobalt
Arsenic
Polonium

But if I had to choose only two, I'd choose Arsenic and Polonium.

Antimony (f)
Strontium (m)
Astatine (f)
Palladium (m)

[subluxate]

Antimony is somewhat pretty, and less odd than some names that pop up here.

[snailrevolution.livejournal.com]

It is, isn't it? I got the idea from Gunnerkrigg Court (http://gunnerkrigg.com/index2.php), a most excellent webcomic. :D

I like Silver. It was the name of my first crush :>)

[lindiohead.livejournal.com]

I asked my husband and he said Einsteinium. :)

[chirpygirly.livejournal.com]

Argon-boy
Samarium-girl

[subluxate]

Selenium (f)--she could go by Selene.
Copper (m)

A lot of them would be decent pet names.

[lind-saay.livejournal.com]

cobalt
zinc
argon

[invisiblepet.livejournal.com]

Copper
Radon

[satunian.livejournal.com]

Tungsten. I can call him W for short!

[kilobites.livejournal.com]

*snicker*

I think I love you.

Berkelium or Californium, for obvious reasons.
