My son and his girlfriend want to name the baby Memphis Eden Khristopher what do you think ?

I personally don't like it for a number of reasons, but the joy of having a baby is that you can name it whatever you want. My mom and I argue over baby names all the time. She thinks that I'm punishing my son by naming him Gavin Cole, but she named my little brother Nathaniel Wayne and insists that he is to be called Nathaniel and not Nate or Nathan.

As for that name, why so long? Is there any significance behind 2 middle names? Is there any significance behind that spelling of Khristopher, or were they just trying to be different? Personally, I attended school with so many Christophers that it was hard to keep them straight, so I'm not a fan of the name no matter how it's spelled. Also, to me, Eden sounds very feminine. I'm assuming it's a boy right? As for the name Memphis, I just keep thinking of what the child will have to go through growing up. Almost everyone that I know whose parents gave them the name of a city goes by their middle name. Even with 2 middle names, this poor kid doesn't have much of a choice!

Sorry if that sounds rude or anything. Just my personal opinion. Congrats on becoming a grandparent!

They should name it Eden Memphis Khristopher

I think they must really like country music! Not to be offensive but I just couldn't resist typing that. I don't like names of cities for an individual. Khristopher is nice but I prefer the traditional spelling of Christopher. Eden for a boy to me is a bit odd. How about something similar like:

Matthew Evan Christopher for example ?

i think the Khristopher is a bit much. Memphis Eden sounds nice.

i admire the assumption of Memphis...its incredible! the only different of the 4 possibilities i could ike are Casius..b/c for some reason i've got faith like Rome and Lucian..are girlish? Memphis lee Memphis Spencer Memphis furnish Memphis Russel Memphis Marshall Memphis James Memphis Sherman Memphis Brody

I don't really care for it, but it isn't the worst I've heard. Seriously, though, this country is filled with so many TRULY BIZARRE baby names now, that this name probably woudn't even cause a blip on the radar.

But children suffer when parents try to "out-weird" their friends in baby name choices.

If they are determined on this, the least they could do is go with a more classic spelling of the name Christopher. And I have to agree, Eden does sound like a feminine name to me.

Cute but sounds very girly obviously not the Khristopher but the first two names, but it is nice X

That sounds pretty weird why not replace Eden with Jayden and Chris for Khristopher

i dont like Memphis...but Eden Khristopher is cute :)

Trendy! I bet he'll grown into it. Often people give their children a strong name and the child grows into it.

A "King" comes to mind when I think of Memphis.

Yes, some kids may tease him growing up, but if his parents give him a strong foundation (thus the name) he'll be able to stand up to the teasers and the bullies.

And we both know what Eden (Garden of) and Kristopher (Carrier of or follower of Christ - the King of Kings) stand for.
