What do you think about the name Dexter? I am aware there is a drama or something on Showtime by this name. Is there too much of an association to get past? Also, what would you pair it with?

While I've seen the tv show, that is not why I like the name, just to be clear.

HAH! My husband's cousin had a son and named him Dexter Data. Dexter for Dexter's Labratory (the cartoon) and Data for Star Trek. And to make things more hillarious, this kid was born with a curly red afro, just like Dex! But he is such a Dexter and I have since grown to love the name, but good lord is that kid set up to be a nerd! LOL

Just thought I would share the story since you brought up the name lol

I lol'd at Dexter Data, but honestly it's kinda great :) We couldn't seem to think of anything as a MN when we were playing around with it. We were thinking something kinda unusual or interesting for a MN; something that can't be a first name really. But still nothing sounds good with it imo.

My wife actually just suggested Dexter Cotton [last name would be Ward], because Cotton is a family name on her side and Ward is my last name. I kinda like that a lot...she's full of great ideas tonight lol
