Christ on a crutch, they're going to name the baby AXTON. |
|
:D
What the hell?
I think babydaddy just likes the idea of calling his son "Ax." :eyes:
Tell me I'm a fuddy-duddy and this is a fine name.

I think that'd get the blank stares I've grown to expect from that generation. :D

4. As distasteful as we may find it |
|
By getting that kid out of her she earns the right to call him whatever she wants. He can always change it later.

Besides, I haven't been particularly helpful. My suggestions of Portia and Fug were ignored.
...that's funnier if you know his last name is Lee. :D

The 17 year-old (who I have to start calling the 18 year-old next week).
More background: She's my girlfriend's daughter. Even more background: My girlfriend had her at 16. Even even more background: My girlfriend has been known here from time to time as Robb's Wakeboard Instructor, for reasons that really aren't worth going into. :D

17. Before they get too attatched: |
|
May I suggest that they give him the wierd name as a middle and a nice conventional first name? They can call him Axton if they want but he'd have the optionof being Joseph A. Lee or whatever for professional purposes if he prefers it. It worked out nicely with LeftyKid.
I've heard stranger things people want to name thier kids. Really, don't even get me started. :eyes:

23. I have a relative who gave his/her baby a far worse name. |
|
Though I can't say what it is lest s/he sees this.

Cinderella as a possible girl's name. And Guinevere.
I have met kids named Rufus, Baxter, Ferris and Tomorrow.
Axton? No big deal. Wait'll he goes to school and you see the list of classmate names! :-)
On edit, my neighbor's first name is Saxton! ( He doesn't go by it though).
