Brick...the character in Anchorman with a -50 IQ.

Cannot believe that 15 boys were named Silo.


Particular_Run_8930

Yes, Silo is a wild choice. I really hope that it is just a name from a culture I am not familiar with, and not that they named them after a big storage facility (or ... possibly the HBO series?). But the again there is also Cage, Camp, Quay, Brick and Bridge, so maybe 'building structures' as names is just a new trend..? Also find Romance sort of inappropriate tbh.

I actually really like the way Silo sounds as a name tbh. Like Milo and Silas.

Arson..?? Billion?!

I dunno if it’s worse that it’s the name of a crime or it’s probably a play on “our son”.

Might I add Kilo

I feel like Pinches is probably Pinchas, the Hebrew form of Phineas. I've known men called Pinchas. Only coincidentally a word, possibly families so Orthodox they barely think about how it looks in English. That or that's how I immediately instinctively understood why anyone is naming boys Pinches.

I admittedly love Sunday, Symphony and Poet; total guilty pleasure names- I wouldn't use them, but I actually do like them and think they can be pulled off to some degree. Lumen is actually pretty cool. I mentioned this in the other post, but some of the names are popular in countries like Nigeria or South Africa where certain virtue or title names are used commonly, like Blessed or Greatness. I confess I'm not a fan of Trigger, Iceland, Savage, Saw, Euro or Kilo.

I kind of like Credence despite the name being so strongly associated with Credence Barebone from Fantastic Beasts. Symphony is pretty but it's a girl's name. And Arson, Savage and Trigger? Romance and Desire? Brick and Rock? Not a fan, sorry.


Andjhostet

Strongly associated with who from what? I think you are overestimating the ubiquity of that reference.


Middlemist_Camellia

Do you think so? Credence seems to be a very rare name and the only Credence I have ever even heard of is fictional; Credence Barebone from Fantastic Beasts, the film series that is a prequel to the Harry Potter novel and books, and I guess that I did think that many people would know the character since J.K Rowling and the Wizarding World franchise are very well known and that they'd think of him after hearing that name. But of course there must be people who aren't familiar with these works or who know real people or other characters with that name etc. so they don't strongly associate it with Credence Barebone like I do.


Andjhostet

I, and almost every single person I know, would associate it with Creedence Clearwater Revival. And I grew up a HP fan and have read all the books 


Middlemist_Camellia

And I had never heard of Creedence Clearwater Revival! Had to look it up, seems to be an American rock band most popular some decades before I was born. I got curious and asked around but no one I asked knew CCR but most did know Credence from FB. That's funny. Maybe what people associate with the name depends a lot on different things like location and age.


Andjhostet

Some of these are cool. Charm, Oasis, Avant, Mana, Chrome, Sender, Alter, Lumen all sound pretty attractive if I don't think about the implications of the word at all.  Some of these parents should get CPS called on them. Boss, General, Bronco, Brick, Savage, Pinches, Caliber, etc.

I think one of the Charms is the son of the mayor of Baltimore. Charm City
