If my next is a girl I'm totes naming her Gunner.

Either her or my next dog. Male dog.

My brother has a big yellow lab named Gunner. Its definitely a dogs name. Not a human.

Son and Amyracle. And the 2 different spellings for Clever? I'm not sure what is more astonishing. The fact that 5 people named their kid Clever or that 5 MORE people liked it for a name but wanted to spell it with a K. I could go on and on and on.

Lol, just when I thought people were running out of ways to butcher the name Jackson...

I already know what DH's favorites would be: Chevelle and Camaro.

But those are cars, not human beings.

but they would match Porsche, Mercedes, and Buick nicely. The Duggars got it wrong going with "J" names. They should have named their kids after cars.

My faves is Tuba.... So flattering for a little girl!!!! :-S

Definitely naming my next kid Trippy Suburu. It's not up for debate.

I wouldn't hate Pennylane if it was a FN/MN situation. There are worse things to be named after than Beatles songs. Plus, Almost Famous.

Don't forget Subaru. Year of the car?

So, ummmm, did anyone else catch that there are at least 5 poor children with each name????

@amberpro I'm just trying to imagine how bad the names were that they couldn't disclose because of privacy!!

BoothBaby · May 2014

Lord, please make all of these children independently wealthy so that they never have to put their name on a resume. Amen.

@KateMW‌ The part about Ha Ha

Oh! Didn't read it.

I think it's so funny that everybody thinks that's his real name.

Yeah, it's less strange since its just his nickname but its definitely not a nickname I've heard before!

I loved the name Portia when I was first exposed to it in Shakespeare and it appeared on my "list" every so often. Until DH actually bought one right after we got engaged. Eh, it's probably for the best.
