[hotrodladycrusr]

I like the name hotrod for a boy. Hotrod McVannel, I like it alot http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

If he grows up and doesn't have an interest in cars or "needs" a name that's more "traditional" or "formal" (like if he ends up being a doctor or lawyer), he could then call himself

H. Rod McVannel

[AHotRod]

How about "Coupe" for either sex

[Flatdog]

Saw this name in a 1941 Indian News mag ,thought it was neat Blip,

[Donzie]

I had already suggested to you "Deuce". That one could go either way (boy or girl). Easy to say, easy to spell and they'd be the only one in class with that name.

[4t64rd]

My cousin just named her kid Griffin Rocket Taylor.

I'm not joking...

now for the jokes

Craven Morehead
Otto Mobeel
Hugh Johnson

http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[flatheadpete]

Absolutely no stripper names for my little girl!! My dorkie brother is named Nick so that's out. I'm diggin' Modela, Duece, Victoria, Enzo (sorry guys, Ferraris are total goldchain cars but cool nonetheless). Seriously though, we are thinking Elliot Henry or Francis Annette. Nicknames will definantly follow. Thanks for all the ideas. BTW, howzzabout Bouncer Sue for a boy?

[ramrod]

PI must be a girl

[fordiac]

makenzie for a girl

bud for a boy

[Bigcheese327]

Pete McVannel II. That way you can call him "Pete the Deuce." Of course if anybody called me "Bill the Deuce" I'd be kinda PO'd.

[Travis]

We named our kid Dylan James...

And now she wants another one next year http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif And if it's a girl... I like girls names that can be shorted to a boy's name... like this...

Samantha - Sam
Danielle - Dani

Also knew a girl named Joni...

So far if we have a girl it's gonna be Danielle (Dani) Jade which would be perfect with Dylan James.

No fuckin' clue what we'd name him if it's a boy but the wife is suggesting Benjamin and I'm like... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif.

[Smokin Joe]

That's "Francis Marion Morrison" Denise. He was named for the Swamp Fox. No wonder he went with Duke! Bet he was tough in school. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[DrJ]

Give her/him a name that won't be an embarassment when they are an adult.

I knew a kid in school who's actual given name was "Sonny" not too cool unless you're a hippy singer. He hated it by the time he got his permanent teeth.

[29EHV8]

Pete,I forgot one that we were thinking about........
girls name.....Delray

........Shiny http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Smokin Joe]

Gotta watch the initials too. I remember Vicky Daniels being branded VD in high school. Kids can be pretty cruel.

Name the kid Oops! at least you'll be honest. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[El Caballo]

Anything but junior...

[Paul]

[wingnutz]

Not all car names but "Cool"...,

Boy names;
Mitchell (after General Billy Mitchell), Victor (RCA), Tucker (cars), Vincent (like the motorcycle), Milo (my favorite uncle), Otto (Cool) or Riley! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Girls names;
Victoria (as in..., "secret"), Riley, Macenzie, Natilly (Tilly), or Jillian!

Good Luck..., http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Hey Flattie,

My brother has a major infatuation with Pontiac musclecars (think GTO). Especially those of the 1970 vintage. In honor of that he named his first daughter Sevindee, and his son Holden (in honor of the 2004 - made in Aussie - GTO).

I had every intentention of naming my kid Deuce, But my wife wasn't willing to be so over the top. We settled on Drea (pron- DRAYA).

If you have any inspiration from old rock or blues stars I think that would be just as cool as a hot-rod related name. Which reminds me - how about Roth? I'd name my next Moriarity if it wasn't so damn hard to say....

Of course take this all with a grain of salt concidering the fact that my real name is Damion.....

[fordiac]

i think in a world today where one name can be spelled nine different ways and still be pronounced very closely, you should just stick with a simple name, standard spelling,

it will really help once the kid gets to high school and college.

[Hot Rod To Hell]

I always wanted to be a dick and name my kid XPJ5Q and say it's pronounced "Dave" or something like that. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif But I had a girl, and I've said since I was about 8 that if I ever had a girl it would be REGAN TERESA, after Linda Blair's character in the Excorcist. Believe it or not, the baby momma went with it! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif I tried to get the spelling changed to RAYGUN (in honor of 50's scifi movies), but mom said no!

[kritz]

ok pete, on a serious note...if you have a girl, i would go with BONNEVILLE...bonnie for short...or...
HOLLEY (ya can't go wrong with holley...)


if i were to ever have kids (which will never happen!!)
my top picks would be
Thea Lorraine (girl)
and
Alastair Robert (boy)

[Ham]

Chole Blu - Girl
Natas - Boy

[Just Gary]

My daughter answers to "Flathead" and my 3-year-old boy gets called "small block". http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[cool57]

Don't saddle your kid with something stupid cuz it sounds "cool" and amusing now...you'll be sorry and he will think you are a moron when he's old enough to understand.
Don't name him after movie stars or soap opera players.
Name him after someone you respect or somepne you wish to honor. Don't name him after you, let him be his own person.
I was named after my Grandfather who died two months before I was born. I named my daughter after my Grandmother who died when I was very young, my son was named after my (ex)wife's late grandfather. My youngest carries my maternal Grandmother's (also deceased) name.....and on it goes.
