I actually have a serious weakness when it comes to this name...mostly because there's a Stone Sour song called Zzyzx Rd that will forever have so much meaning to me. I love it, a lot.

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

Ah, see, I didn't even know there was a song! Now it makes a ton more sense! :)

I just know I liked it when I saw it, and I'm not usually one for the weirder names. :)

[melly-issa.livejournal.com]

It's also a place in California

LOL this makes it about 10x worse for me. If I was named after a Stone Sour song I think I would hate myself.

[familyeverafter.livejournal.com]

well, the song was named after a road somewhere in California, so maybe the kid was named after that.

[schexyschteve.livejournal.com]

Well, that's a terrible name.

Zyzex would be better.

[b-gum.livejournal.com]

omg... why do i love this name so much?? -head tilt-

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

Same boat here. I'm usually anti-odd name but DAMN I love this one!

[sarahness.livejournal.com]

I do not think it is cute. I think it's ridiculous.

This.

[kitchen-poet.livejournal.com]

Yep. Ridiculous. This kid will eventually have to apply for a job...

[http://users.livejournal.com/___heyvanity/]

I agree--not cute at all. Imagine someone as a professional having that on their name tag at work when they are 30...

[fleckerbug.livejournal.com]

Not a lot of professionals have nametags... I guess health care workers.

[twinklieetoes.livejournal.com]

THIS.

[notresponding.livejournal.com]

exactly this

[amyeliz.livejournal.com]

Agreed!

[spaceandclouds.livejournal.com]

I must say I'm on the 'ridiculous' boat. It may be a song and a place name, it just looks like a bunch of random letters thrown together.

Also, when I pronounce it out loud, it sounds awfully close to 'sea sick'.

[renishas.livejournal.com]

That's what I keep trying to say!

[frost.livejournal.com]

Ahaha, this.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

What on earth?

[solitudete.livejournal.com]

I think this name is only suitable if you are a villain in a Transformers cartoon.

[lilacmermaid.livejournal.com]

It sounds like a name spoken in one of those 'clicky' alien Star Wars languages.

[harinakshi.livejournal.com]

Terrible.
No one is ever going to be able to pronounce his name, most people will think it's a misspelling. Good chance he's going to hate it. I hope they gave him a middle name that people can pronounce, and recognize as an actual name.

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

Negl, even though I actually like it, I thought it was her online nickname for him, like how some people call their baby "the alien" or "the mini-human-thing", etc etc.

[kitchen-poet.livejournal.com]

Wait, did I read that right? Negl is his legal middle name? So his full name is Zzyzx Negl????

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

Hhahah omg no! Negl means "Not even gonna lie". Sorry!

[sailorgoodbye.livejournal.com]

All I can think about when I see that is the album by Zeromancer. :/

[lilmizmombassa.livejournal.com]

This is not cute (strictly IMO, of course) this is awful and I feel badly for this little boy. It looks like a Sesame Street character upchucked on paper. Poor kid.

[octobre09.livejournal.com]

I just don't understand how you're are suppose to read "Zee Zix" from Zzyzx? It doesn't look or sound like a name to me. It'd be worth a lot of money at Scrabble though...

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

It'd be worth a lot of money at Scrabble though...

Omg could you imagine it on a triple word score!?

[ohhvelocitygirl.livejournal.com]

that name doesn't even look like anything except when my cat walks across my keyboard.

[bookity.livejournal.com]

Hm, that was the name of a monster prison in a kids book series that I read. :)

[alexandria-skye.livejournal.com]

zzyzx is a place too!

it's interesting, but definitely too much. :/

[blonde-in-black.livejournal.com]

I'm glad the baby is cute, because the name is OMGWTF.
But then again, each to their own!
