Would you name your child Pink Floyd?

I was contemplating this last night...


boy or girl, I would glady name my child Pink Floyd Phillips

unfortunately, my last name doesnt exactly fit with the pattern

If my father had been named after his biological father, my last name would be Mathews

as my biological grandfathers name was Floyd Mathews, I think that Pink Floyd Mathews would be an awesome name for anyone to have

your thoughts? try your last name with it

Re: Would you name your child Pink Floyd?

indeed.. well it is a well known fact around here that I'd quite comfortably name my kid "Aragorn" or if it was a girl "Eowyn". If I had a male dog, withouth a shadow of doubt it'd be called Frodo.. think about it.. Frodo.. what a great name for a dog, espesh if it was something like a Beagle ( I REALLY want a Beagle)
names like Floyd or Stanley I'd reserve for parrots or turtles.

cheers

Re: Would you name your child Pink Floyd?

There are plenty of other name combos that would work well..

What if Robert Stack named his son Marshall?
You could name your son Lester Paul...
Other great names for boys...
Jethro Tull
Marshall Tucker
Uriah Heep

If you have a skinny daughter named Elizabeth you could call her Thin Lizzy..

Endless possibilities...

I like your daughter's creativity.. that's actually quite amusing. I have a friend who has a spaniel called Bonnie, we always said that i'd buy a male spaniel and name it Clyde.

cheers
