Yep. That's right! I'm gonna be somebody's DAD!

(Insert evil cackle here)

So for all intents and purposes,on Febuary 14 there will be a little Cityzen joining this cesspool of a planet...

...but hey, I'm optomistic...

Anyhoo, I humbly request your suggestions for my Barbebaby. (I threatened the mother with this post! REX: I'LL LET THE SITE NAME THE BABY HONEY!!LOL)

Any suggestions?

She already ruled out Seven,Scooby,Scooby Dude, and Little Dude, so I'm out of ideas...

HAVE A CIGAR!

Thanks >;-])

Destroyer is a good name. Make the other kids fear hir.
Alternatively, name your child Knuckles, to send hir on the way to a promising career as a 'Mob Goon'.

And what's wrong with Rex ?

That way, when they're six, you can tell them that you really wanted a puppy...

Hmmmm....REX.LOL

Though I'll pass on FuckFace Wanker.
And Mariah Carey.

When my gerbil Rex died, I named the next one RexII, the one after that RexIII, etc. You probably shouldn't give it any regicidal names but what about Oedipus? or Macbeth? Um.. who else killed kings? Syphilus?

Harmodius and Aristogeiton killed a tyrant...well, a tyrant's younger brother, but the principle is good.

But yes, the Attic hero Syphilis probably did for a fair few kings. Failing that, you could call it Rex, and then call the next two Quondam and Futurus.

21:55 / 20.10.02

Hey NOW!

What's with all this killing of kings and what not?

Rex is really cool, but how about Zen?

I am so proud to call you friend, Rex. You are so f**king solid, babe.

it's an anagram of "On E"

I have always liked Samia (sameh-a, not sam-ai-a). Pietro. Hey, how about Love Child?

00:35 / 21.10.02

Then again, given that presumably you have been with her for a maximum of six months or so, possibly you should let her name the baby...

hmm. my only non-gender specific suggestion would be Crackpipe. Or perhaps simply "Creature".
well, for males, the name "Voltaire" would seem to be in keeping with with the ideals af a free-spirit. "Roland" would give it a nice epic nature, albeit tragically doomed. Wait, scratch that.. Roland (from "The Gunslinger" ends up a matricide by 16).

Which are you hoping for, boy or grrl? and congratualations

Rex: Multiple congratulations to you and you're Mrs.- I'll send you a pint on the astral plane.
I really like the name Rowan - good name for either sex.

pointless and uncalled for

Having checked into a crystal ball I have determined that thtere will come a time in the near future when all kids will be named Dewey until they can choose a name that they like on their 18th birthday. (People with daughters will be allowed the option of Dewette)

Thus you can get a jump on the whole procedure and call your kid Dewey.

I knew a guy who tried to convince his girlfriend to call their kid Pterodactyl.

She dumped him.

Hows about Scooter? Or Bagpuss? Or Elvis?

Or Steve. People like Steves.

what abouy Yoda ? my girlfriend don't want our baby called yoda. it's a shame.

14:47 / 21.10.02

I think you should name him Qalyn. Or Osama.

Baz Auckland

15:23 / 21.10.02

I always liked Sal or Balthazaar. Cornelius would be fun...or Gideon. Ha. I guess saying "he's named after a comic book" is on the same level as "he's named after my uncle." or whatever other reason people have for naming their kids.

I knew someone named Sage once...

Is your girlfriend having a baby, June? Or is this a hypothetical child?

Be fashionable, name it after the location where it was conceived. Hopefully it wasn't Southend.

Lila or Martin for a girl.

Ahhh...good point. I'm kind of hanging this over her head in a way...she's expecting the worst from you lot and I'm trying to prove her wrong...

...with no success obviously...

Anyhoo,

I have also promised her the baby's first word WILL BE D'oh!.

Pity her and her child...

Michael or Helen.

I knew a guy who tried to convince his girlfriend to call their kid Pterodactyl.

I tried to convince my boyfriend that we should name our first son Igloo. He wasn't too cool with that idea.

So we compromised: Igloo will be the name of our second son.

...when he finds out that his name is Quijibo!

Hubris for a boy, Hegemony for a girl.

That's the best laugh I've had all day, thanks.

Call it Homer, be it a boy or a girl. or...

Zorgoth - Master of the Galaxy! (with the exclamation mark)

name him Eduardo
its a cute name

Saint Keggers

06:14 / 22.10.02

Call it Enigo Montoya (you killed my father, prepare to die)
Seriously Ive always liked Elizabeth for a girl and Thomas for a guy (Charlie for a salamander and Sam for a cat, Tobey for a dog)

ariadne : Is your girlfriend having a baby, June? Or is this a hypothetical child?

non. it's something we speak more and more about, and i really think it's a question of months (and of better relationship with my bank, too), but no, it's not something "done". so, yeah, it's a quite-hypothetical-but-soon-to-be-not-that-virtual child...
hey, Rex, what about "Imperius" for a boy? (or "Imperiussette" for a girl)
