Would really like a scifi/fantasy inspired boys name but that also has meaning ideally.
Any suggestions?!
Labour is imminent so any ideas gratefully recieved...

I always wanted to call a son Darien after a character in The Fionavar Tapestry. It means gift and I still love it!

Was going to mention Logan!
For fanstasy, can't beat Eddard.
There's an Anakin at work!
Buck, as in Buck Rogers?
Our 'boy's' name was Jaxom.
Only we had 2DDs. I talked DH out of calling DD1 Merlin though, we went with Elanor (Samwide Gamgee's daughter).

I'm not kidding, I actually have this book:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sci-fi-Baby-Names-This-World/dp/1594741611
If you buy it from the second hand dealers you can get it really cheap!
It's surprisingly well-researched, and I'd recommend it!

Definitely Garion, German name meaning Guardian from the David Edding series.
Althalus is another of his I like.
Khalad (from sparhawk) is close to the Arabic name Khalid/Khaled meaning eternal or immortal.
Zane is from Piers Anthony incarnations of immortality (he goes on to be the incarnation of death but in a good way! ) in Hebrew Zane means God is Gracious.
Im going to watch this thread as I want to know final choice make sure to update and congrats.
Btw I've just realised that both my dds have names very very similar to 2 characters from 1 of these books. Obviously crept into my subconscious!
fryingnemo that's exactly what I was going to say!

Max Power.
I remember an episode of the Simpsons Homer was using the hairdryer and saw that written on and thought it was a cool name
Logan - either from Logan's Run or as the alter-ego of Wolverine (X Men)
