Lois Kane

[Kcooper26]

Is it that bad?

I know all about lois lane bla bla but dont care much do u think it sounds ridiculous cause of it?

28 & Lois Lane was first thought.

If you absolutely adore it and can handle every person referencing Lois Lane to you, do it. She will not often be called Lois Kane out loud, and one day she may marry and change her name anyway.

Lois is a nice name but I think most people will think of Lois Lane, and Superman is still around as a character so not going anywhere soon. DH has a similar name to an iconic character and it does grate on him tbh.

Maybe use Maximama's idea of double barrelling?

Don't do it.

I'm 18 and I thought of Lois Lane from Superman, everyone knows who she is!
Incidentally, there's another (less well known, but I instantly thought of her too) Lois Lane, in the musical Kiss Me Kate which is a play within a play. The character who plays Bianca is called Lois Lane.

Lois is a cool name though.

I have a lois but with that surname I'd have avoided it. What about something simila like Saskia or Dulcie?

Yep, first thought is Lois Lane here too.

Then, if I'm honest, I thought of it as some terrible cheesy BDSM 'porn star' superman rip off 'pun' name.

No...it sounds like a pornstar ripoff of the original character imo. Sorry.

Lois is a nice name, Kane is nice...just not together!

Ha allstopped I hadn't read the thread but I see we thought the same!

Yeah don't do it. It's not you that will have to put up with it most, it's your daughter. She may be faced with Superman jokes several times a day for the next 9 or 10 decades! I would not thank my parents if they had named me Minnie House or Tina Burner or Maggie Hatcher or Taylor Shift or Hermione Stranger or Angelina Holie, would you?

Maybe use it as a middle name? They are hardly ever said aloud but you'd be happy you'd used the name.

Terrible. Lois Kane. Please don't do it to a child.

Id never heard of her im 24. I dont no its that popular as indiana janes or tom jones tho?

Superman is one of those franchises that won't go away.

It was a huge comic-strip in the 1930s, a massively popular TV series in the 1950s, then revived as a several blockbuster films in the late 70s/ early 80s before again being hugely popular as yet another TV series in the mid-late 90s (Teri Hatcher and Dean Cain - you just missed that outing ).

I'd say it was due another revival very soon.

Go and read the threads by people who called their DDs Elsa shortly before Frozen came out. Some of those DDs changed their names (and that's just a first name).

Hattyhatter have you not seen the current superman movies with the delectable Henry Cavill swoon?!!!

Oh god no I haven't. They haven't put him in a big weird rubber suit like batman have they?

Yep hattyhatter, Man Of Steel came out in 2013 and the next instalment is due out next year I think. Henry Cavill is probably the most Supermanny Superman there has ever been (and he's ever better in real life!!).

SWOON

Says superman to me, partially because Dean Kane sued superman in the nineties!
