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...

:)

Also meant to say it doesn't necessarily have to be related to anything scifi or fantasy, but just have that ring to it- like Xander, for example...

Luke from Star Wars - probably the most sane one I can think of

Clark - Superman

or maybe Kirk - Star trek

I really can't think of any that sound normal, I don't think calling a baby Kal-El or Hulk is a good idea, sorry......

good luck with the birth!

Garion. Always liked it, but it rhymes with my MIL's name. Great name inspiration in fantasy / sci-fi. Good luck.

Anything with an X or a Z in it, and please be aware it may well be risky if kids at school think it is too weird.
