Can I call my baby Chester even though I live in Chester?!

Hi
Me and my husband are expecting our second boy in 4 weeks time, we have a 12 month old called Archie and we simply cannot agree on a baby name for boy number two!! The only name we currently both like is Chester but would it be a joke name given we live in Chester (and actually on Chester Road!) as I'm writing this I know it sounds a joke!!!! But we do really like the name!!!!! My other faves are George, Max, Noah and Rex. I don't like my husbands faves of Reggie and Finlay. Comments welcomed!!!! Xxxxx

I once knew a fluffy cat with that name, he was a cute cat!

Chester is more of a name for a pet anyway.

Don't call your baby Chester. There isn't a reason on earth to justify doing that to a child.

Just no.
I like Max.
