What Do You Think Of These Names For Future Kids?

Question

I'm very serious, I think they are powerful names that care meaning.

Boys:

Lucifer (can you get any badder, nick name luke).

Loki

Dorian ( the picture says it all)

Anansi (African Spider God)

Girls

Lilith (Nick name lilly)

Medea

Pandora (can be nick name pan or dori)

Amanita (Very Deadly Name)

Carmilla (The true first vampire)

Akasha (love anne rice)

Answer 1

You're very serious, but how do you know your child is going to be exactly like you? Give them a name they'll love to grow into.

Anansi is actually kind of cool. I've never heard it before. I don't like any of your girl's names though. Sorry.

Answer 2

THIS HAS GOT TO BE A JOKE!?!

Answer 3

I like Lucifer and Dorian....Not Damien though- just because I know too many people who have named their sons that in the last few years.

For Girls: Medea and Carmilla

Answer 6

I... you admit that names are powerful, yes? So why would you do that to any boy?

Lucifer, of course, is the name of the devil. Swell. Just drop that right now.

Loki is the mischievous god who tried time and time again to betray the others in mythology. Probably not the best idea.

Dorian? Are you kidding? That's just horrible. You want your son to grow up handsome on the outside but decrepit, criminal, and corrupt on the inside?

Anansi. The African Spider god who continually lied and tricked and deceived.

And of course, Damien. The little demon child from the movie. Why would you seriously consider saddling a kid with any of these names?

Answer 7

Whoa, those are some heavy names for your kid to live up to.  It's cool that your kid would definitely be unique and not the same old Joe or Lisa, but some of those names (like Lucifer lol) might be a bit much.  Those might be better off as middle names, although if your kid turns out right, he or she might actually be able to carry those names well (if they end up awkward in their teen years, maybe not, but if they grow into being one of those cool, easy-going kids everyone likes, then their name might actually be an asset to them lol - it could easily go either way though).

The only ones I seriously like are Damien and Lilith, which are cool even taken out of the context I guess you're thinking of them in lol.  Once the other kids find out where names like Lucifer and Pandora come from, they have the potential to be endlessly teased.  If his name was Damien Lucifer though, there's a lot lesser chance of that happening lol.

By the way, I'm not a huge Anne Rice fan (my brother is crazy obsessed with her though lol), and most of my knowledge of her stuff is (sorry to say) from the movies (Interview with a Vampire, Queen of the Damned lol) but seriously, wasn't Akasha that insane homicidal vampire woman?  Why would you want to name your kid after her?  lol just wondering, maybe she's portrayed differently in the books.

Answer 8

Honestly I really like all of those names they are very very serioius names.
