Elise

This is my 4 month old daughter's name - I'm pretty sure my wife still doesn't know where i got it. 

My youngest daughter's name is Alese.  One of my oldest friends has a daughter who is five months younger named Elise, they've been friends since birth.  It was great when they were young.  We could just call 'Lise' and both would come running.

I can't decide if Apollo Electra Ranier is either a) An awesome name, or b) condemn a kid to become a stripper.

He won't do much running. 

If you put 30 grand into him, he'll almost be as good as blazer.

Our wedding florist was a woman with a first name of Ford. Even more interestingly, she married a guy with a last name of Ford. 

Her name is Ford Ford. Seriously.

The main characters name in the Netflix series Mindhunter (awesome show btw) is named Holden Ford. 
 

A lot of DSMers named their sons Talon but I could never do that.

My wife worked with a lady who wanted to name her firstborn son Holden. Luckily she was willing to scrap that plan when she married a man with the last name of Peters.

George Castanza wanted to name his kid 'Seven'... Numbers open up a whole world of possibilities including 'Ten', middle name 'Millimeter', the best kid at hide-and-seek ever conceived!

This all reminds me of my friend who named his daughters after Shakespearean characters.  Rosalind and Katherine.  But he couldn't leave it at that, so he gave them crazy middle names.  Rosalind's middle name is "Dangerismymiddlename" and Katherine's is "Claireandpresentdanger"

He keeps pictures of the birth certificates on his phone.

Freelander sounds nice. 

Okay so I’m going to reply as my wife and I are reading thru these together. Total train on thought coming down the tracks. 

 

“freelander!?”

"Freelander!???"
Celica: no response
Martin: we ended up discussing how ppl on here talk about "mrs. Screename" probably not Martin
Mercedes Lexus Infinity: I like the sound of them but already well used 
C/T/DJ: that's a concept I hadn't thought of before, planning out initials
Edsel: she loves it, I do not. 
Fairlane: we're kinda considering it for a girl, like if we have a few more maybe
Squire/SuperDeluxe: we'll file those away for pets someday :)
Outlander: ha
Mercedes, Portia: Mercedes as above, nephew's dog is Porsche
Kelsey: "I like it"
Shelby: in the family already 
Lucas: oil? She likes it, it's okay with me
Holley: I really like but she doesn't. 
Enzo: ahh yes another possible contender
Bristol: "I kinda think Bristol is cute for a girl, but I'm not quite spunky enough to do it" haha 
Elva: "I like elva, it's a very beautiful old name" 
Doozie: "no"
Auburn: "yes" okay new contender
Cord: "no"
E36 M3: literal or what it means on this site?? Either way, no :)
Morgan: "I love it!"
Alfa: "reminds me of alfalfa"
Camaro: "no" -- before our first, when naming became like serious, we had considered Chevelle. I have a friend who named her daughter that too. Not CEO enough for me
Austin: "I forgot, Austin was my first crush, that's funny" <-- NO
Cooper: taken in the family already
Geoff and John?? Like the show, don't know the reference
Turner: "mmm nah, not really"
Norton: "norton hears a Who"
Vincent: "no. Too old"
Harley: "yes I love it so cute, sounds cute and spunky" I think of that brand of motorcycle as primarily a huge marketing campaign gone viral. Meh. Maybe I'm jut scared of bikers :)
Jensen: "is cute. Yes"
Ashely: "yes, pretty, I like that one!"
Huge list, here are maybes: healey, Sofia - it's what my girls pretend their name is already, "oh my word the girls would FLIP", cole: "I love the name Cole!

Michelle Lynn: ?? That's a car? I'll have to look it up
Elise again: yeah my father in law apparently slipped in car names for two of the three kids without his wife noticing. Audi was a pretty evident one that she did notice :)
Iron curtain names: "barcus!? No!" And so on, down the list. Possible dog name though! Hahahah
Shaft: I am a smallish white male. My son probably will be too. I lol at the thought of naming someone like me "shaft"
Gulia: if not for that G that would be the name!

Fogger: "what?? I just don't know what to say to that"

 

There once was a GRM real life story/expose' where the protagonist was given the code name Fogger Jr. More specifically, Nitrous Fogger Jr.   I don't really know the meaning behind the choice of the name but I was just suggesting a unique name from old GRM-lore.  

Could also be Amy if it is a girl but in GRM-lore that does not really have a connotation that a father would choose.  At least not choose for his own daughter unless of course he mysteriously wondered if this girl could possibly be his daughter.  

 

If staying with forbidden GRM-lore, might try the name Hennessy.  Not for the liquior of the same name but rather for the car dealership (and the fine service dept - sarcasm) in Woodstock, GA
