The Name Game


For those of you who have no idea who this guy is, he is on the movie Across The Universe and plays a guy named Jude. So, here's a little story. As you know, I am having a baby in the first week in June and, no we do not know the sex yet but we have been thinking of names a lot lately and can not agree on one to save our lives. We like unique names but names that people can pronounce and when they see it spelt out, know how to say it. Now we are going to rewind to Christmas when Gabriel opened a very cool presant from his Aunt Rachel. She bought him a music box that plays, "Hey Jude." This music box has become quite the treasure in our home and the song itself has to be sung, or played (either by CD or music box) at least 10 times a day. Scotland has even become a big fan. So i was thinking that Jude might be a good name if this is a boy. The problem is this; we have a tradition of having all our boys have a middle name that is the name of a talented musician (Gabriel McCartney after Paul McCartney, Ezra Ellington after Duke Ellington, and Landon Davis after Miles Davis) and there are no musicisans name that sound good with Jude (that I can think of). Any suggestions would be nice. ALSO, if you can think of any boy or girl name that is unique but not wierd I would LOVE to hear it! Thanks!

You don't know me, but I stumbled on your page and read this entry. You could do Jude Armstrong after Louis Armstrong...

I'm voting for Nugent or maybe Meatloaf. C'mon, It'll be fun!
