    Don't worry give him a "normal" name and he still isn't safe

    I was made fun of to no end for my last name (a fun German name that could be made fun of in many ways). My mom named me Amanda and my brother a normal name because she was teased for being named Pansy. You know what, didn't help one dang bit to have a "normal" name. I also got called Amanda Panda, which I hated. Manders, hated. Mandy, hated. And when they figured it out that it annoyed me, they did it more.

    So you know he might get made fun of or everyone might think he is cool for having such a neat name. I am sure all the Tom/John/James/Jason/Roberts of the world get made fun of. Kids just are mean, isn't that part of growing up or something? If it isn't a name it is buck teeth, pale skin, freckles, etc.... Can't change those anymore than a name (well, I guess there are braces at some point).

    I like the name. It is fun, of course it does sound like a jock but maybe he is the next rockstar pro-mountain biker like Tinker or Jeff Kabush. Of course he might be the president in 36 years, all the politicians will have names we might not have thought were normal today.
