I met a little boy called Ace the other day. Hadn't ever considered it as a name before but he really lived up to it.
I also think Teddy is a pretty cool name.

VPcaff and Bowie named his son Zowie Bowie. Little Zowie, all grown up, now chooses to go by "Duncan Jones". Grin

Sisters named Magenta and Sienna

That's not true about David Bowie's son. His name has always been Duncan jones. Zowie is a middle name he was called as a child

We have several 'cool' names picked out because we like then and don't really like any traditional names. If people don't like the name we pick I don't care. I don't understand people who don't like things that are different.

I quite like Ned. Can be a nn for Edward which is more 'normal'

PrincessPotsie · 26/02/2014 23:05

I met a Mario the other day. V cool.

I heard of a baby boy named "Guy", quite a name to live up to I thought?
What if he turns out to be a weedy nerd? Wink
I met a 4 year old teddy, he was a little horror and didn't suit the name AT ALL!!!

TheArticFunky · 27/02/2014 09:35

I've always thought Beckett, Beck for short is a good name and passes the "cool" test.

Mylo
Linus
Hayden
Cobie
Corbyn
Hugo

florascotia · 27/02/2014 20:20

Cobie/Corbyn???

Corbie in Scotland is carrion crow. Not a nice association.

ChaffinchOfDoom · 27/02/2014 20:31

Cobie v popular - female actor called Cobie Smulders, I know a local boy called - but don't live in Scotland Smile

ChaffinchOfDoom · 27/02/2014 20:32

could be Corbyn Corben or Corbin

BEEwitched · 27/02/2014 20:34

g Someone listed our son's name (due in May), and I love Corvin or Corbin/Corbinian as well - wouldn't have really thought of those names as out there!

Dumpylump · 27/02/2014 20:39

I met a Cooper the other day...had never thought of it before, but I really liked it. A boy, btw Smile

EvilTwins · 27/02/2014 20:44

I agree that the boy makes the name cool, not the other way round!

I used to teach a boy who was so effortlessly cool he was ever so slightly intimidating. His name is Macaulay, which is not cool, but he went by Mac, which kind of is.

MairzyDoats · 27/02/2014 20:59

ExitPursuedTheRoyalPrude you can pronounce Xavier the Spanish way, which sounds like Havier, or the French way, which sounds like Zavier. That was what I meant by 'with a Z'. So neeeerrr.
