Have you named your child after a sci fi character?

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

I really cannot fathom naming a child Anakin. Especially if it happened post-prequels.

My dog is called Mitchell. Does that count?

It could! Mitchell was a movie riffed on Mystery Science Theater 3000. That just means your dog is named after a terrible Joe Don Baker movie.

Zefram is the most awesome Trek name for a boy. Suits the names used nowadays too.

Plus, if your last name is Cochrane, right now the timing would be about perfect too.

Well, I was thinking of the Stargate character.

I once knew a guy called Jack O Neil.

I once knew a guy called Jack O Neil.

Did he have a son named Daniel?

Get it? Jack O'Neill...Daniel, Jack's son...Daniel Jackson...

I'll just be leaving, then.

With only one "l"? He must have had no sense of humor.

 

[wamdue]

I didnt know him long enough to know how he spelt it.

 

[Autobot]

I met a woman who was named Rayna after a character in TOS. A good friend of mine has a dog named Kaylee, and another friend has a cat named Zoe.

 

[Prometheus]

if I had another daughter, I was thinking of Aeryn or Chiana

 

[DeafPoet]

If I ever end up with a daughter me and the girlfriend are considering Kira or (something I'm lobbying for) Juliet. The latter as much for the obvious classical reference as Lost.

We're done having kids, but if we did have another daughter, I think Jadzia is a great name.

I currently have a customer named Miles O'Brien. No joke.

If you consider lobbying mention it once than sure

And juliet can be the second child.

One of my friends and his wife has named their eldest son "Jareth" after David Bowie's character in Labyrinth.

 

[Barbados Slim]

my next child will be named Rook if it's a girl after Rook Bartley from Robotech. I was going to with Rand for a boys name also from Robotech but I am going to go with Ender. Ender will definitely get him laid.

I mentioned Rook and Rand earlier. Love those names.

Rand works doubly for me, too - Robotech and maps (since I make maps for a living).

There are so many great female characters with cool names from Robotech. Miriya, Nova, Dana, Sera but I think Rook was the most badass character and had the coolest name.

Until recently, CNN had a reporter by that name too.
