The story of my son's name Ezio Alonzo...what do you think?

When my wife and I found out we were pregnant we were both overcome with emotion, as I'm sure we all were, and worry at the same time. Before we knew the sex of our baby we went through 2,000 baby names... o_O Upon going through them I told my wife I was fed up with all these baby boys named Jayden, Aiden, Mayden, I even found a Zayden. I wanted something different, unique like all us parents want. Our finalists were...Now when we first got married two years ago we made a deal, whenever we had a baby if it was a boy, I got to name him.(but she had to agree) If we had a girl first she got to name her.(but I had to agree) With that we found out it was a boy. I had asked her if the middle name could be Alonzo because he was a great uncle of mine that always took me to the family farm to feed the animals, and showed me card tricks. He passed away when I was about 8 or 9 so I always wanted to name my son Alonzo. She agreed and out of the 2,000 names we went through these five were the combinations we both like best..

Dante Alonzo- Darius Alonzo- Rhylin Alonzo- Desmond Alonzo or her favorite

Desmond Miles

I love to play the Assassins Creed video game series, so I got really used to hearing the name EZIO (eht-see-oh) I thought that there was no way in a million years my wife would approve. When we were deciding among the five listed above we were torn between all five...when I mentioned the name Ezio Alonzo...she loved it! Now with AC III coming out this October I told here if we have another son we should name him either Altair (all-tie-air) or Connor, the funny thing is her favorite name for our next baby boy is Desmond Miles, and that?s the main character in the AC Series...

    Interesting story. Not sure I'd want my baby named after a video game character/assassin, but if it works for you guys, go for it.

    When I read the title I thought Assassins Creed right away.  I like Desmond Miles out of the names chosen. 

    Who's the main character in the new one coming out?  We have all the AC games.  We love them.

    I'm not sure what I think about naming LOs after video games. But...just looking at the names. Altair is a mouthful and will likely be mispronounced by others. And Connor is too plain compared to Ezio. I think Desmond and Ezio are the best sibset.

    :-) Thank you video game/assassin all aside have you ever heard of the name Ezio? It really drew me in because of its originality. Not to mention it wansnt even in the "Top 7,000 Baby Names". Compared to popular names like, Jacob, Nathaniel, Jerimiah, Jayden, Aiden, Ethan, Liam, etc etc.

     I knew some people would know where I got the name from LOL! On AC III the main character aside from Desmond Miles is a Half Native American Half English Assassin named Connor Kenway, his Native American name is Ratonhnhake(ra-doon-ha-gay-doon) Theres no way my wife would let me name another kid that!

    Thanks for the advice, since I got to pick the first born son's name I picked Ezio Alonzo, if we have another boy she said she already has chosen the name Desmond Miles...

    I have not heard it before, but it sounds like a strong Italian name.

    I have heard the name Ezio before. In Robin Hood Men in Tights there was an assassin named Dirty Ezio! Haha! A cool name is a cool name in my book, no matter where you get it.

    What do I thnk?. I think it's no good to comment on babies who have been born and named.

    I think your pretty obsessed with your sons name. How many boards did you post this on?  

    I think I would never let my husband name my son after a video game.
