    It' a fine name. A good middle name would be "Boatgambler"

    I like the name, but you should definitely have a normal middle for the child. I love out there names, but you don't want the name to be way way out there.

    For example:

    DON'T Try something like:

    River Rain

    River Lake(n)

    River Frost

    River Autumn, Summer, Spring, or Winter

    DO Try something like:

    River Jane

    River Allen (loved this idea from a previous answerer)

    River Katherine

    River Aaron

    Best of luck :)

    River is a beautiful name. As for a middle name what about Rose. River Rose.

    CUTE! And my name is Skye, so all the nay-sayers who say "think of the child, not yourself" or "your kid will be mercilessly teased" should be ignored. If you are naming your kid Abcdefg, it would be different. But River is not some made-up name. I would strongly discourage you from misspelling it, though, like Ryver, or Rivver, or some other goofy perversion!

    I like it both for a boy and a girl. Nicknames you could use:

    BOY:

    River Orion

    River Emerson

    GIRL:

    River Rose

    River Luna

    River Sage

    I like Skye's answer.

    It is very cute. Middle names.... I like Rose, and I like Raine. Also I like Jane. River Jane.

    I don't know if you mean for a boy or a girl...which pretty much sums up why I'm not a huge fan of the name...

    I don't like it at all. I'd never even consider using it. Maybe on a dog, but not on a baby.
