Exman, these having any connections?

Gooberlx2, yea, presidents. And already did the cities, though, at least with Troi, ancient, not contemporary. But given the number of potential routes to go with names, no sense in doing cities again. Wouldn't be a bad idea, except we already did something different with Jordan, which would make him the odd man out. Cleveland is a cool name, though. Didn't notice going through the list, Grover Cleveland.

How about Rufus. Or Raynard Muldrake.
Who/what are these? Just made up, or significant?

I always thought Rufus was funny. The second is from an xfiles episode. It featured Jesse 'the body' Ventura and Alex Trebek.

Still working on our end... Haven't got much we both like. Computer history, we've got (and I forgot to write who these came from): Benjamin, and maybe Joshua.

Scientists, we've got: Leonardo (Davinci), Colin (Maclaurin), Simon (Ohm), Gideon (Mankell), Galen, Avery (oswald), and Daniel (Nathens).

Cartoon characters: Marvin (the Martian), Dexter.

Now we're gonna try military generals (don't ask me why!)....

i say go with Joshua, great name to have if yo uask me ;)

-Josh

My wife is due Aug 20th so we went thru this name thing too. We picked out like 3 million names and were not going to find out the sex of the baby but she found out and kept it a secret from me for 1 frigging day till she spilled the beans. For a boy we were going with Kyle James and for a GIRL we are going with Julia Michelle. Lets see if you can figure what we are having. Even if the ultrasound was wrong we have a good backup in case. I am working on posting all the pics of what I did to her room, my little present to Julia, I painted a huge mural of Calvin and Hobbes on the walls of her room. BTW Congrats on the new baby.

My daughter is Alexandria Troi, for cities, and my son is Jordan Lawerence, for rivers. Need another set. Patterns we've thought of include cartoon characters, stars/galaxies/moons/etc., and plants. Any rate, need two names, with a pattern. The winner will get, umm..., thanks.
