So, wdyt?

For a family who likes unusual names but not completely out there names.
For a boy:

Justice Galen

Justice means, well, justice. Galen means tranquil, or peace.

Also, can anyone think of a good boys first name that will go with McWhorter as a middle name?

i knew a girl named justice. we all thought it was the stupidest name ever.

i also know a kid with the last name mcwhirter - his name is broc, which is an unusual name. it always reminded me of broccoli.

Normally I don't like those kind of names - names that are not traditionally a name, but a word or a thing. But I like Justice, and i don't know why. maybe because Justin is a traditional name. Or because it's a value, and I like the idea of a value being a name. But it works for me.

My general rule about names is if it will be something that people he/or she incounters in life will need to see written down or heard several times before they can get used to it, It doesn't work for a name.
Just might take some time to get used to, but not asmuch as some other names.
