The main reason I am asking is because my fiancee is a major Himura Kenshin fan.. I just recently got into him due to watching the movie, Samurai X. I had asked him if it were possible to do so, and he said of course! XD We're both a lil woo-hoo in the head I guess..

Personally, my favorite anime character is Gaara, but I doubt my fiance would want to name one of our sons, Gaara. =)


Edit: Aww.. poopie, I didn't do the poll right.

Edit: Edit: Nevermind.. O.o lol


Woah!!! MY friends and i had the same talk! (About my naming a kid Gaara) It was about a 47 minit conversation and ended with the conclution:people name their kid Gaara, but people would name them after a anime character with a more normal name. I thought of naming a kid Jene (Cus i thought that Jin's name on Smurai Champlu was Jene... My hearing was impared.... Or Jim (B/c its the same kid from Outlaw Star and my great great etc. was Jim Corbett..

I totally agree.

I'd so name my kid Dutch, or Revy if it was a girl.

I voted yes. I would, even though I don't have any plans to.

I do, sort of, in a way, have plans to name my son (assuming I have one) after a video game character. Particularly Quint, the obscure Megaman character who has appeared in the second and fifth Gameboy Megaman games, Rockboard for the Famicom, and the Wonderswan game Rockman and Forte (not to be confused with the SNES/GBA game of the same name). ... Except I'm not actually going to name him "Quint." I'm going to name him "Quinton." I will call him "Quint" though.

I also want to give one of my kids the middle name Tiberius, not so much after the Roman emperor as after Captain/Admiral James Tiberius Kirk.

I haven't given too much thoughts toward what to name a daughter, but there's certainly a list of anime and game names that I'd consider.

As for pets, my dog is named Wicket. After the Ewok. We used to have a cat named Chewy, but I don't think that Chewbacca had any role in naming it that (it was named well before I was born, anyway). Also, I joke with my friends about our current cat, named "Maggie" by my sister, being the spawn of Kami Neko, the gray cat from Azumanga Daioh that tends to bite people, due to similar appearance (mostly gray) and similar tendancies (biting AND claws).

I know someone who is friends with an Amber Burger.

And it's her own fault, too.

She married someone whose last name is Burger.

Hehe, that's actually kinda clever. I still wouldn't do it though.

No, but I did name my corgi after the corgi in cowboy bebop though. I probobly would not be interested in anime when I have a kid, or will I? <-- not a threat.

Well sure, there's nothing wrong with Mario or Zelda or Gary... I imagine the idea is to ignore those.

Some anime and videogames names aren't so bad...

Maya, Faye and Tifa come to mind as ones that I don't think are too bad.

I've already decided, I'm going to name them after Sonic characters(close enough to anime). Of course, I would give them blatantly obvious names... One would be Nack, one would be Ivo, one would be Amy...I'm still thinking about Crabmeat...I would kill for that name XD

Well if you named the kid after a popular character and they turned out to be a total asshole/lamer/etc, you'd piss off fans of the character.

Sam, I know for a fact that is what you'll name your kid....Just to annoy Lou...

Hmm..its better than naming him Donut.


Personally of the members of R vs. B, I would name my kid Church...

"I need Church, Church will tell me what to think"

For the most part, I would never name my kid after an anime character, unless this would somehow upset the tides of humanity and piss alot of people off

Video games have lots of cool names...


For some reason, I like the name "Midna"...

What? Who names their kid "Vegeta"?

Cooler names are always strange, in an awesome way. But nah.

I'd be willing to name a daughter Faye. 'Tis pretty.

Sure there are some good names out there however for a human it doesn't work. The only way you oculd justify it if it was a common name.

Now, video games, on the other hand, it would be cool. Laharl, Etna, Adell, Lloyd, Emi, Caboose, Grif, Kirby, and many more.

Heh. I can see it now. Caboose. XD


What about Butz?
