skinner49 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I have a friend named Joel. I work with a dood named Joel. lol But I wouldn't name my child after a video game character. Unless it was semi-normal? Like Ken from Street Fighter? I think the closest I'll get is naming my daughter Jasmine from the Aladdin movie.

Popular Post damon8r351 Posted August 31, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2014 If my wife and I were to have kids, she wanted to a boy Zack after this fucking guy: Which I soundly vetoed, because naming your kids after video game characters is silly. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Wdjat Prinny Doods Posted August 31, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) Well even though it would be an odd name I would love to sneak the name prinny somewhere in a child's name. Could also scar one of my kids for life and name them Prin the Vagabond (hopefully that kid would grow an afro) Finding a woman who would allow me to do either is a whole different story though doods.

Yami Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) I wouldn't mind naming my children after video game characters as long as it's not too obvious/ridiculous and sounds good.Some examples I had in mind were:Son:-Sora-Aiden -Nathan -Leon-RoxasDaughter: (It seems I like names ending in [ee] for girls )-Ellie-Jody-Kairi-Chloe-Dawn- ZeldaNow I only need to find a GF, marry her and grow old with her Edited September 1, 2014 by DarKNesS_X 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damon8r351 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I should point out that Zelda was a fairly common name for girls early in the 20th Century, like Zelda Fitzgerald, who was F. Scott Fitzgerald's wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xxleonardo97xX Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) This is just pure nerdism mixing videogames with real life wtf Edited August 31, 2014 by Xxleonardo97xX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion-Lhasa Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 As long as the name is an actual name I see no issue with it, got to be better than calling your kid 'Khaleesi', 'Hashtag' or 'Dovahkiin'. Just look at the crap celebrities call their kids. 'Peaches' 'Apple' 'Dweezil' Just random items or totally made up shit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yami Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 This is just pure nedism mixing videogames with real life wtf Maybe so, but you do realise that most of those names were used long before the games we know them from, came out ? Besides, a lot of people name their son or daughter after a game character without even knowing, because 9/10 times they're just regular names. It's just a nice touch that it means something to the parents aswell. Now, I'm not saying we all have to name our kids after characters and I can imagine that you don't like it, but it sure as hell isn't as unusual as you may think. Besides, I've heard FAR worse names than the ones I've read in this thread, just to be "original"... And those weren't from videogame characters. (e.g. I know someone that is called Wolv ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
