Nymbler (the baby-name website) just offered that to me as a suggestion!?! WTF - I did not know that was a real name!!! LOL.

Nimrod
A boy's name of Hebrew origin that is found in the Old Testament. Nimrod was most popular in 1880 and is currently not among the top 1000 U.S. boys' names. Meaning: Hebrew: rebel. Bible: a great-grandson of Noah.

Yep, Nimrod is a Biblical name...but definitely not one I'd suggest using!

Yeah, I've seen it listed with the Biblical names but it's just silly.

There was a kid in the punk crowd at my high school named Nimrod.  I always assumed it was a nickname.  Turned out it wasn't.  Yikes!

One of the second graders my class was named this several years ago.  I had a hard time saying it out loud.

Yep, I've seen it in the Bible before. Not one I'd ever use...

It's the name of a Green Day album. Great album but I would NEVER use it for a child. May as well name them Eejit!

I didn't know that Nimrod was a name either.

I did. We used Nimrod as an insult in junior high (80's), it was right up there with hamster brain.

This. I think "Kerplunk" would be a better name. Kidding.
