Help with a name

As some of you know Jenai is prenant irl. She's 8 and a half months now and we still haven't come up with a first name. we know his middle name will be Corwin. Yes the same as my character. I truly love that name. And we're thinking about Bastion for the first name, but we haven't really decided yet.

I thought maybe some of you could come up with a good name that goes with Corwin and help us out.

Thanks,
Corwin

NWDuneAuron has a nice ring to it, you know.

Seth
Findlay
Grovel
Zane
Travis
Lars
Devin
Tza (pronounced zaa)

I tend to like more unsual names. I pity my first child....
I dont think Bastion would be good. He will be taunted with Batty Boy or something similar

Find a book of names, or do an internet search. The hardest part is finding a name you ~both~ agree on, but once you do you'll know it. It will just fit.

And NWDuneAuron would be my choice....for a pet iguana.

It's a boy.

We've tried the internet search and still can't agree on anything.

It's hard to pick something that goes with Corwin.

"Sceluscio" goes with anything really. It's like the color black.

How about:

Samuel Corwin
Andrew Corwin
Evan Corwin
Jake Corwin
Alexander Corwin
Adam Corwin

How about Carl Corwyn? Then you can just call him 'CC'

You could also use:

Eric Corwyn
Random Corwyn
Benedict Corwyn
or any of Corwyn's other brothers from the Amber series

"I trust him like a brother. Which is to say, not at all." Corwyn of Amber.

well... I am not much on boy names... so dont hold this against me... BUT

uh...

Bradley?

or uh...

well no... Bastien like from Neverending story would be better than Bastion.

if you asked the kid the story of his name he might kill yah!

ohh ohhh how about Edgar... or Sabin?

Bastien like from Neverending story would be better than Bastion

That's actually where Jenai got that name from. It's one of her favorite movies. You spell it bastien? It does sound more like the kids name from the movie when spelled like that.

Alexander Corwin, thats a fine name

that was supposed to be the name of our first son. But I let Jenai name him Alexander Derrick after her Grandmother's family.

Eric Corwyn
Random Corwyn
Benedict Corwyn
or any of Corwyn's other brothers from the Amber series

"I trust him like a brother. Which is to say, not at all." Corwyn of Amber

I was wondering if anyone knew where that name came from. That's the series that got me into fantasy. I read it when i was about 15.

I thought about Corwin Anakin, cause Jenai loves Star wars, but she said no way, everyone would make fun of her

Elrien Tyln · Post by **Elrien Tyln** » Thu May 25, 2006 10:36 pm

after the way george lucas mutilated star wars and decided to turn the deliciously evil and stalwart villian darth vader into a whiny brat, I couldn't say I'd blame them much for laughing at anakin... Luke would be the stronger name of the two.

How can you say that? It isnt fair! No one understands me! *runs off to join the dark side*

*directs him to knights of the old republic 1 and 2*

Thanks everyone for the help, and congrats druid523 for the winning name
