Oh. My. God. ~~ Calcifer

in Baby Names

My cousin is pregnant and had picked out the name James Brian for her son.

A few days ago she picked up the name Calcifer somewhere and is now seriously considering actually naming him CALCIFER!! 

Oh. My. God. 

Nooooooo!!!

    Yep.

    She actually got it off of a Japanese anime cartoon. There was a demon of fire named Calcifer...

    I am just at a loss for words.

    Awful.  How do you go from such a nice, classic name to Calcifer?

    Remind her that she's birthing a child, not an anime character.

    I tried!!  There's only so much reasoning you can do with a 17 year old pregnant girl, though...  She's still in that "I know everything" stage. 

    She says that her mom talked her into using James Brian, and she never liked it to begin with. Seriously, though, if she was coming up with pretty little gems like Calcifer this entire time I can see why her mother tried to force a normal name on her.

    I totally love Howl's Moving Castle, but Calcifer?!  I hope she changes her mind before the baby comes.

    There are lots of anime characters that have beautiful names with lots of meaning and thought behind them. 

    Calcifer is just not one of them...........

    Maybe you can convince her to use Lucifer.  At least that's recognizable. Tongue Tied

    You could tell her you will nn the kid Cal like in Talladega Nights, Ricky Bobby's best friend.  This might offend and make her change the name.  If not, just call the kid Cal anyway.

    It sounds like the devil's calcium supplement. Wow.
