De Evolution 03/21/18 2:09:24 AM #1:	As in she told me names she was thinking of for her future kids and I was just like what the hell? I mean some of the names were so dumb I think she has to be a bit crazy now. Or is this a millennial/young woman thing to have stupid ass names for children? I can't believe an adult would come up with some of this stuff and be serious. --- Let go your earthly tether. Enter the void.

As someone who has an extremely uncommon first, middle, and last name I would never do this to my kids. No way in hell. I actually just spent the last 30 minutes googling how names affect us and found out men with shorter names get paid more and get promoted more easily, having a "white" sounding name not only makes you more employable but it's equivalent to 8 years of work experience on a resume, having a common name gets you perceived as more likeable and trustworthy, and other statistics that basically reinforce my thoughts on this.

Dash_Harber 03/21/18 4:11:25 AM #32:	Wolf and Ocean are not even close to weird or new age. Several pretty popular or iconic names mean those things. Wolf, Wolfgang, Adolf, etc. Ocean is the same, we just don't realize it often because it's in another language. For example, my Chinese professor gave us all Chinese names when we started learning and mine was Hai Tao (can't do the accents on here), which sounds cool and foreign, but literally just means 'ocean wave' in Chinese (it's literally the word you would use to describe that). In fact, several Chinese names are like this (including some that are literal numbers). The others are a bit off, though. Revolution seems incredibly wordy for a name. Titan is a very specific thing (either the Greek version of primordial giants, a descriptor of size, or a stellar body named after the aforementioned primordial giants). Alpha just seems dumb to me. That being said, people usually grow out of that. It's not a 'millennial' thing, either. People have had weird names forever, and a lot of our 'normal' names were actually weird when they started. For example, the name Ashley was almost entirely male until a tomboy character in a novel was named Ashley. I honestly have a thing for old Norse names (or the modern equivalents for some of the more difficult to pronounce ones) because I have a thing for the Norse pantheon and fascination with that time period, but I'm 98% certain my wife will veto anything like that if we ever decide to have kids. <cite>Dash_Harber posted [p:898201518] in Talking to...

Wolf, Wolfgang, Adolf, etc. Ocean is the same, we just don't realize it often because it's in another language. For example, my Chinese professor gave us all Chinese names when we started learning and mine was Hai Tao (can't do the accents on here), which sounds cool and foreign, but literally just means 'ocean wave' in Chinese (it's literally the word you would use to describe that). In fact, several Chinese names are like this (including some that are literal numbers). The others are a bit off, though. Revolution seems incredibly wordy for a name. Titan is a very specific thing (either the Greek version of primordial giants, a descriptor of size, or a stellar body named after the aforementioned primordial giants). Alpha just seems dumb to me. That being said, people usually grow out of that. It's not a 'millennial' thing, either. People have had weird names forever, and a lot of our 'normal' names were actually weird when they started. For example, the name Ashley was almost entirely male until a tomboy character in a novel was named Ashley. I honestly have a thing for old Norse names (or the modern equivalents for some of the more difficult to pronounce ones) because I have a thing for the Norse pantheon and fascination with that time period, but I'm 98% certain my wife will veto anything like that if we ever decide to have kids. I'm aware some names "mean" those things. It doesn't make them any less fucking stupid as names. Like I said, I have an extremely uncommon name and I'm not doing that to my kids. Our last name is uncommon as is last thing they need is a silly first name like Wolf or Ocean. Doesn't matter if it means something else it's not a good name. Just because Toro means bull in Spanish doesn't mean I would name my son Bull. Lots of names have meanings and are actually decent names on their own. Reina means queen. Laila/Layla means night. Luna means moon. Those are all good names. But I wouldn't call my daughter Night. And the Norse stuff just reminded me of one of the other names she chose was Ragnar. What the fuck?! We're black first off, I'm not naming my kids for white mythological heroes have some damn pride at least. But yeah I'm sorry but every single one of those names is stupid as fuck. I truly don't understand the mindset of people who give their kids dumb weird names. It baffles my mind that people are that fucking stupid to not realize what they're doing to their own kids who have to live with the idiotic name they chose. --- Let go your earthly tether.

When I hear it, I think of two of the central characters from Bernard Cornwall's Saxon Stories, and that's probably why I like it so much. But I totally get your point in that case.
