Haha I feel for you man. Well my son isn't school aged yet, but we went with the name Draxtin. I'm wondering how it's going to play out for him.
Unusual first names

The name ian seems like a pain. Pretty much you just have to answer to both pronunciations interchangeably. Is it ee-an or i-an?
I knew a girl in college with the name of "Jessibelle".
I wonder if her parents realized how similar it was to "Jezebel".

I used to know a gal named Echo. I loved her name and it paired nicely with her last name.
I know a lady at work whose first name is Xian ... pronounced "Shin".
She is from Shanghai, China so it is an Asian moniker.
I tried many times to friend her on Facebook, but I couldn't find her page.
Turns out on Facebook, she goes by the first name "Momo."

I know my name isn't the most popular, but I never thought it was that unusual. I've known several others throughout my life.

He pauses for a few seconds and answers back "Tr...?". I respond "OY
" Then the other day I was in a fast food joint. They asked if I wanted to donate a dollar for some charity (I can't even remember which one). I said sure and she asked for my name to put it on the wall with the rest of the donors. I responded "Troy". She pauses for a second and answers "T...?"
So I ask. Is my name more unusual than I think, or do people today have that hard of a time stringing 4 letters together without the help of spell check and auto correct?
