DP and I both love Xander for our imaginary son.

We have a Persephone who is never ever called by her full name, but I like to see a proper name on birth certificate for some reason.

I wouldn't want to use Alexander as really dislike the nn Alex.

Thoughts please ;) Would you think 'yuck'?

I think Buffy!

I like it though.

Thoughts are - great name; Buffy's sidekick; SHORT FOR ALEXANDER.
