Tiberius

in Baby Names
I'm not sure what else there is left to say...except this is DH's #1 pick for a boy....and no, I'm not joking.  The sad part is, when my sister was trying to come up with a T middle name for her son's initials to match his dad's I suggested it--and was completely joking.  I'm not sure I could say that with a straight face to my friends and family.  Tiberius.  I just...no.

    Well, that's okay. We're just black people who watch Star Trek.

    LOL! We got our baby name from Battlestar Galactica (which all Star Trek fans should check out, it's awesome). Luckily, it is also my grandmother's maiden name, so we have an alibi :)

    Also, your DD is incredibly adorable in that picture!

    I was looking in your siggy expecting to see "Starbuck" "Adama" or "Apollo"  Of course, that was the BG of old.  I'm not opposed to SciFi-inspired names...just not...Tiberius.  (I did campaign for Jean-Luc, got shot down LOL)

    Colonel Saul Tigh is on both old and new BG! Jean-Luc is great. That's too bad you got shot down.

    Star Trek was the first thing I thought of when I heard this name.  NMS at all.

    What about other Star Trek-inspired names that wouldn't be as obvious, since you don't like Tiberius?  Wesley, Miles, Montgomery....

    Jean-Luc is on my list! lol 

    Thankfully it's French and goes with our last name, but I'm a big fan of Star Trek so everyone would know where it came from.  Still a lovely name, though.

    Ever since we started discussing names, DH has always suggested Tiberius as a middle name. He's a Trek fan, too. But I couldn't do that to my kid.
