What are some names for boys and girls that a gamer (D&D, Final Fantasy-those kinds of games) would like but a non-gamer could appreciate as well? My friend's husband keeps turning down all of her picks so they need some help! It would probably be easier to find something that *he* likes because he's more picky.
From her first marriage, she has two girls-Julia and Ava. Current marriage, they have a girl named Zara who passed away and a boy named Gabriel nn Gabe.

Cid is also a reoccuring FF character.
Cidney or Sydney for both genders would be a good compromise there. And use Cid as a nickname.

You might want to suggest to her to ask him if he wants to pick the middle name and let her pick the first name. That way he can get something he likes - and it can be as dorky as he wants it to be. And she can give the child a name that she wants too and she/he wouldn't have to worry if the fn is too close to a game character.

No I must have missed "Sydney", I was thinking just "Cid" because there is a character named Cid in almost every FF game. Except I wouldn't really call just Cid a proper name for a RL kid. So I put the Sydney/Cidney thing there.
