Would this make a great boys name or am I delusional?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

No, you’re delusional.

@Meepmeeep

If you have another you should name them Prayer.
The third can be Lord. Or Jehovah to be truly ecumenical.

Delusional. Why name a child a word which means 'so be it' ?

stillsomewhatsheldonesque · 12/11/2020 20:57

Hell no.

Liliatori · 12/11/2020 20:54

Not my cup of tea if you want a quirky religious choice prefer Saint even though that’s very Kardashian

For twins can I suggest Peace-be-with-you and Also-with-you?

As a name Amen sounds great but it’s not practical to use it, is it?
What about Aden or Adam or Ramon.

AuntieStella · 12/11/2020 14:46

Amen as in Hotep?

Or middle name for Tutankh?

CovfefeGalore · 12/11/2020 14:32

Do you have an older DC called ForEverAndEver? If so then it could work.

joystir59 · 12/11/2020 13:40

Hallelujah is better

greenemerald · 12/11/2020 13:37

I know someone called Aiman (ay -mun). It's not an usual name in some cultures.

BewareTheBeardedDragon · 12/11/2020 13:32

No, it's not a name, you'd be setting them up for a lifetime of resentment and misery

Terralee · 12/11/2020 13:31

Oh nooo

Chilldonaldchill · 12/11/2020 13:26

My son has friends called Amaan and Amon.
But no I think Amen is awful.

orangejuicer · 12/11/2020 13:25

You may find that you're not allowed to use this name anyway. Worth checking registry info.

(It's not a name sorry)

kennelmaid · 12/11/2020 13:23

Not delusional, that's far too clever a word for it. Just bonkers.

frogface69 · 12/11/2020 13:23

Do you mean Amon ?

Viviennemary · 12/11/2020 13:23

Cough.

LolalovesLondon · 12/11/2020 13:21

My first thought is why?

MikeUniformMike · 12/11/2020 13:20

It's better than Jesus_wept.

You could go for one of the shortest names in the Bible - Er

GoodQueenAlysanne · 12/11/2020 13:06

I think dc would get teased for sure over that name. Or not be taken seriously in life.

FrightClub · 12/11/2020 13:03

No. Even if your DH is an absolutely heavenly father.
