Hi all!

I'm due Feb. 13th - my fiancee and I have been thinking of names now that we know we're expecting a little boy. :)

Thus far, we've been really set on the name Drake. We both like the meaning behind it (dragon, and namesake of Sir Francis Drake, who discovered the islands I grew up in, in the VI - we've also read that it means "male duck" lol).

So... what do you think of the name Drake?

Any recs for middle names? (Last name Reardon, so we're thinking a 3-syllable name might be the best - lol wow, so much analytical-ness goes into this. lol)

Thanks in advance - glad to be here!

It does sound very soap opera, not just because of the Friends reference, but just because the name seems to have a dashing hero quality to it, either a soap star or a hero in a bodice-ripper novel.

It also makes me think of ducks.

But, I actually think it's pretty cool despite those two things. It's got a lot of good qualities to it too.

Drake Alexander was what first came to mind.
