[World politics is up Schmitt creek]

In my pathetic domestic fantasies, one boy, Joseph Francis, and two girls, Maya Therese (or Felicity Maya) and Constance Judith.

[Santander]

Is it even healthy for men to do this? I generally prefer Anglo-Saxon names, but I'm a bit torn because my family all have Russian names and I have a fondness for the Byzantine Empire/Russia that I'm uncomfortable with.

maya is seriously the one non sarcastic name i go to when a girlfriend asks me.  i assume you mean the mary one though, not the sanskrit maya

Francis is a great middle name

[HAnnA MArin County]

I'm not having children, but if for some God forsaken reason it were to happen, I like the name Macklin Amadeus for a boy and Anastasia Elaine (my mother's middle name) for a girl.

[LLR]

My last name is really hard to work with...

Thelonious
Coltrane

This is why I won't have children.

My last names is really hard to work with...

Could always give your kid a different last name.

[Illiniwek]

I think my fiancée and I both really like Caleigh for a girl.

I think I want my first born son to be named (My true first name)_____ Theodore _____(last name), and to go by his middle name, like Theo. I also want to throw in a bit of my Lithuanian heritage in there and maybe have a kids middle name be Casimir.

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

Great question - in high school, I made it my intention to have 10 kids (6 girls, 4 boys) with names laid out. Tore that up thankfully, but I remember Isabella, Brooke, Emma among them as I recall.

In recent time, I've become more realistic (and perhaps a wee bit selfish), but I no longer expect to have to children. If I were to, I'd probably cap it at 2 boys - something like Blake Oliver and Hunter Thomas. Though I'd need to give it some thought. I also like Caleb, Jacob, and Maverick.

After Thelonious Monk or does this name have more history than I know about?

Yeah, after Monk (see literally all my other names on that list)

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

Mulva and Bovary came to mind.

Oliver Blake flows better and Hunter Thomas sounds too much like a window shade brand.  You could call your son Ollie B and start him off on an awkward Catholic white hiphop career!

I detest all these over the top names Millennials want to name their kids

I shall name my son Octavius Deus Babylonica and my daughter Flower Spring Emma Sunshine Rainbow Glitter.

I prefer names like Daniel, Angela, Jacob, Theresa, Emily, or Matthew.

I guess I kinda have a Scandinavian outlook on naming customs.  Give them a name they can live with.

[Green Line]

I've always liked Jack (John) and Owen.
