Im having difficulty finding names I like. I need two - three names that roll off the tongue and wouldn’t be out of place with a long hyphenated surname.
No religious names
No surnames
No places
Nothing that rhymes with Aden
Upvote good suggestions otherwise post ones. Bonus points if it’s a sci-fi name.
Edit: lots of good suggestions, but I think I’m going with ‘Wash’.

Megatron
- Not religious
- Not a surname
- Not a place
- Doesn’t rhyme with Aden
- Is a sci-fi name
The only issue little Megatron will ever face in life is the possibility of an Optimus Prime showing up some day, he’s otherwise right on the path to world domination, and who couldn’t love that? 😉
Our Savior Megatron is absolutely a religious name and blasphemy to name some fleshy lump with it.

Although, they’ll call him Meg for short

The Autobots still haven’t stopped Sunny Megatron so the kid will probably be ok.

I’m very partial to early bronze age names.
Epirmupi
Manishtushu
Tiglath
Inshushinak
Labarna
Naramsin
If you look at the Sumerian or Elamite king lists, you really can’t go wrong.

Manishtushu is nearly the worst name i have ever seen. Kids would absolutely wreck that guy all the way to college.
- Hegar ( @Hegar@kbin.social ) 13•11 months ago
People are going to make fun of the conqueror of Anshan, King of Kish, Ruler of Sumer and Akkad? That seems unlikely to me.

Man-ish tush-u. It aint hard to see why the kid would grow to hate his name.

Y u no Ea-Nasir

As soon as I saw bronze age I thought of old Ea-Nasir, was very surprised he wasn’t the point of this reply.

I would either go with a easy to remember naming system, something like child_male_0000, or with a type 4 UUID, to avoid naming collisions.

Excellent suggestion your grace

Please don’t name your kid Wash
- rmuk ( @rmuk@feddit.uk ) English2•11 months ago
That’s a long name, but I guess he could shorten it to Pleasy.

Keeping the rule of shorter first name with longer/complicated last name, I picked a few from my future pet possibility list. Pets names at our house generally have sci-fi origins.

In the New York tri-state area there was a well-known TV meteorologist named Frank Field. He had a son whom he named “Storm”. A bit on the nose if you ask me. Also, Storm went on to become a TV meteorologist himself.
