ANST - Name the baby

[Vicki Marsh]

Well, what is your real last name?  What is your SCA persona and/or your mundane heritage?

You don't want something that makes an odd combination, like Candace Treat (Candy) or Ima Hogg.

My one hangup is that if you are going to give a child a name, don't give them the diminutive form.  Jerry and I agreed on this as his name and mine (Vicki) were constantly confused with the full names of Gerald and Victoria.

If we had a girl, her name would have been Amanda Michelle.  We named our son Anthony Michael.  I figured he could be called Anthony, Tony, Tony Mike, Michael, or some other combination, but that would be his choice.  Besides which, I had to give him a good Greek name so he could be Byzantine like me.  Now he wants to be a Viking!!! (Anyone want to help with finding Anthony a Norse name?  I have a few ideas.)

Seriously, there are lots of places to look for cool names on the WWW.  Go to the Main SCA web page, look under heraldry, and follow the links.  

Bless you and your wee ones,

Zara Zina
