    Robert Roberts? lol

    I'm going to name every single one of my children AGAMEMNON so i'm prolly not the best person to ask ;D

    But off the top of my head Casey or Xander would fit with Roberts pretty well ;o

    Jay Cee (abreviated J.C., as in Denton)

    Flayra, or perhpas Charlie Cleveland II

    Mithrandir

    "elite" h4x0r (abbreviated 1H)

    Although I must say, Calvin Roberts has a good ring to it. Just make sure to give him a stuffed tiger.

    Edit: Gordon Freeman is also an excellent name. Gordon Freeman Roberts. Perfect.

    I'm not sure if that would be in the best interest of your child. A "unique" name would probably just invite abuse by your child's peers, especially if it sounds foreign.
    But I'm sure you've thought about that already.

    Bah. Kids will find reasons to make fun of each other no matter what. Having an interesting or uncommon name *does* help with the ladys, later on. Ohhhh yeeeaaahhhhh...

    /me points at sig.

    'Ned Roberts' - sounds quite good, actually.

    I'd hope for him that the Simpsons are forgotten by the time he reaches school age, though.

    Believe it or not, I had already considered that one.

    I had thought of others, but the missus shot 'em down. Some examples:

    2.54349085 (it doesn't mean anything, and that was the point. Wasn't entirely serious about this one)

    Kairo (or Kai for short)

    Nico ('Nee ko, or Nik for short)

    and I tried Sei (pronounced as Cy), but that's really typically a female name, not that that's an exclusionary point.

    Giving the child a unique name is very much in the kid's best interest, and I am being careful about it. This is not up for debate, but thanks for your concern, those of you who may have been worried about it. We aren't going to be reckless about it. heh. That reminds me of a Simpsons bit. When Homer and Marge were trying to come up with a name for their boy, and Bart was suggested. "Bart, Cart, Dart, Eeeart.... Nope, nothing bad rhymes with Bart!"

    Keep 'em coming!

    In the same spirit of Bart, why not name your kid Orange? <i>Nothing</i> rhymes with orange <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I MUST agree that the pervious suggestion of Waffles would be great!

    Anyway... if you were feeling mean, Robert Roberto Roberts would be quite funny, althought not in your "rules"

    How about Faction?

    If it has to be unique, I would say, Silas (Good one posted before) Or Cyrus.

    Silas Roberts, or Cyrus Roberts are pretty good I think.

    Or you could do mine, Taylor. Taylor Roberts. Guess it isn't bad.

    Tai Roberts. Or however you want to spell it order to pronounce the word Tie.

    I tried looking up some names, but alot of websites are so fruity...
    Plus, for some reason, they have like 5000 pop-ups.
  • Smoke_NovaSmoke_Nova Join Date: 2002-11-15 Member: 8697Members
    Hmm...a name....

    Dante Roberts (Since Dante is such a rare name to see)
    Jason Roberts
    John Roberts (John is not so common a name anymore)
    Johann Roberts
    Amadeus Roberts
    Andrew Roberts (my first name, kinda biased I know)
    Charlie Roberts (Get some brownie points from the All-Might Flayra)
    Larry Roberts >
    The Wachowski brothers
    Andy Roberts >
    Samuel Roberts (Taken from Samuel Barber, my fav. composer)
    Carl Roberts (Taken from Carl Orff, composer of Carmina Burana)

    Well, for the true Simpsons spirit, you'd have to name him Bort.

    Keep an eye on those little personalized license plates with names on them, though - they run out quick. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    -Oh, the Natural-Selection Forums...
    -umm, are you serious

    Best suggestion so far - not a stupid name, but pretty unique anywhere outside of Germany/Austria/wherever.
