Okay guys I really need help! Originally me and my husband decided we were going to name our son Milo James, but now recently my husband has been trying to convince me we should name him Pilot. At first I hated it but now I kinda like it and it it gives me a super cute idea for the nursery. I don't know, is Pilot a weird name?
Re: Baby name help!!!
It's unusual, that's for sure. You may be setting your boy up for a lot of explanation later. It'd make a cute nickname but I wouldn't choose that permanently.
Yes, Pilot would be a weird name. Imagine later on in life your child goes to introduce himself at a job interview and says, "Hi, my name is Pilot!". EVERYONE will have to ask him to repeat his name just to make sure they heard him right, then everyone is going to want to know WHY his name is Pilot.
Like PP said, definitely don't post this on the Baby Names board...
You can still keep the nursery theme!

This time I'm not leaving without you.
never was actually IN those shows, just watched and also the movies, hence the err. Although the Joseph movie with Donnie Osmond is TERRIBLE!!
This. I had a hurricane my first year of teaching he had an actual first name James, James hurricane but went by hurricane. It was odd. When I introduced him to the class one of my students was like hurricane is that his real name? Thank god he did have a real first name but he never used it.

Its a cute name when your little and then becomes questionable as you get older. I am went to school with a Major...and well...it was interesting. Most teachers repeated his name the first day of class or tried to pronounce it with a french accent or something. I would stick to Pilot as a theme.
Good Luck!
Just because a few occupations can make good names doesn't mean that they all can. Occupations that should not be names: Prostitute, Meat Packer, Proctologist, Septic Tank Repairman.
We were keeping our names private, but now that you brought it up....can you explain why you think Meat Packer makes a bad name??

<p align="center"Not a typo, I mean Taylor, the surname turned given name with the same meaning as Tailor.
BTW nameberry has a section devoted to occupation inspired names.
