Would you rather name your child after a family member, fictional character, or celebrity?

I plan to give each of my children at least one family name because I like to honour family members through names. :) I would likely just use a family name as a middle name and give the child his or her own first name so that there's no "identity issue." Since I have a family name for my first and middle (and so does my sister) I think it's really sweet to honour people this way, so I want to do the same for my children. :)

However, I have toyed with the idea of naming a kid Nathan, Vincent, Tidus, Kate, Zelda, Garnet, or Yuna after Final Fantasy and Castle characters, haha!

I also love the name Adele, after Adele.

If I could only pick one, I would of course name my child after a family member. But no matter what I did, I likely would only use family names as middle names.

Hope this helped. :)

Family member or fictional character. I will probably have my child's middle name be a family name, but I would love to name my child after a character. I agree with your statement on why :)

A family member. <3

Definetly not a celebrity...they name their kids strange, strange things (like apple, sunday, blue ivy :/ eek!)

Finctional character's have more unique names, but it would be kind of weird to be named after one...seems like a family member would have more meaning

the best idea to me is just name your kid whatever your favorite name is whether its a fictional character or not, but thats just me haha

I would never ever name my child after a celebrity. They aren't anything special to me. I might use a name like Ryan...cause i like it, but not after Ryan Gosling. (even if he is the hottest guy in the world) You know what i mean?

I love the names Primrose and Renesmee but I wouldnt use either because i would have to listen to people b*tch all my life about how i "copied" them out of the books the hunger games and breaking dawn. or...even if people didnt complain...people would just be constantly asking or assuming i used those because of the books. annoying, so not worth it in my opinion.

As for using a family name, yes i would. But ... only if i was close with the family member. Say my baby's father wanted to name the our baby after his uncle and i didn't like his uncle..i wouldnt allow it. If it was after my father or his mother and i was close with either parent..then maybe. It also depends on if i like the name.

Well celebrity names are very common in children like Justin. Usually fictional characters have rare names so go with fictional honey

Fictional character. my family has bad names, and I really like the name Finnick(from the hunger games) Celebrity names suck in my opinion

A fictional character.

-- I have Lilith after the demon

-- I have Gabriel after the angel

i would name my child something unique. None of the above.
