Moses Roy Merrill.

It just rolls off the tongue. You know you like it.

 

[anarckitty]

My favorite on your list is Elliot Roy Merrill.

I like James Roy Merrill myself.

Whatever you do OP, don't use a name like Kaiden, Brayden, Jayden. Jaxon is also a terrible name.

I actually like Rivers. Also I am on team #nomiddlenames

 

[Black Door]

Your absolute first question should be "Is this going to get him beaten up at school"?

So no, not Rivers for sure.

"Normal" names can still get a kid beaten up

 

[pwack]

Rivers is shit, IMO.

OP -- Since you asked, I'm gonna agree with this.

Hudson

Have a nephew named Hudson. Hate it. The kid is cool though.

 

[bigmf]

Go with Rivers. You can nickname him Creeks when he's a baby, Brooks when he's above toddler age and Streams when he's a teenager.

 

[v1lla21]

Morpheus Rivers.

Yeah I completely agree. This was taken from babycenter.com's "100 most popular baby names of 2013"

"Licking his wounds just under Jackson is Aiden, bumped down to number 2 on the boys' list after eight long years in the top spot. Last year's quartet of top 10 "J" names has survived the competition, with Jack, Jacob, Jayden – and of course, Jackson – as members of this boys' club.

Dorito Merrill

 

[dave is ok]

Just had my first on Monday, named him Lucas Raymond.

You can name yours that too if you want, I guess.

 

[fudgey_lumpkins]

How about *Your First Name* *Your Middle Name* Merrill Jr.?

You can thank me later.

 

[Jburton]

David John Merrill

 

[Ace Harding]

Robert Roy Merrill

Roy Alexander Merrill. Initials would be RAM, which is cool. Just don't call him Royal.

[Ultima_5]

like rasputin

or chuck

 

[PaleFolklore]

Claude
Gary
Tad
Thad
Chad
Marv
Dick
Rusty
Herbert

Take your pick

 

[braves01]

Lynch Merrill

Brody Merrill

Stoneroy Merrill or Stone Roy Merrill

Rock Merrill

Mitch Roy Merrill

Feel free to mix and match for the middle name. Ideally change your last name to Rockwell, so your son will be Stone Rockwell.

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

Julian
Alexander

Whatever you choose, don't pick Rivers. It's no good.

Initials will be JAM; I'd go with this.

 

[Wag]

Bastard.

 

[Not Spaceghost]

Name him Samuel, check it out

Samuel Merrill, sounds great right?

When you eventually start shortening the name and start calling him Sam this happens.

Sammmerrill

Perfection.

 

[RottenTanuki]

When I named my son, I ran it through the filter of how easy it was to pick on in addition to how it sounded.

 

[Deadbeat]

You should watch this first.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

the popularity of the name Jaxon confuses me. At least with stuff like Jack and Jacob, or even the proper spelling of Jackson, you could see it being kind of cute for a baby, but Jaxon sounds like your kid is going to grow up to be a male stripper or lead singer of a nu-metal band.

 

[Lautaro]

Artorias

 

[Ryaaan14]

Kanye

 

[_woLf]

Name him Neogaf.

 

[ampere]

Duncan Roy Merrill. Initials, DRM.

Gaming joke aside, I think having your father's name as his middle name is cool. As for a first name, I like the name Seamus. That might just be because I've been watching Archer a lot lately and the wee baby Seamus is hilarious.

 

[DonasaurusRex]

Arturius Davian Merrill

56nd Tactical Squad Marine
Ravenguard
Imeperium Of Man

you can leave out that stuff but if you can find a modern day badass commander name *Arturius* is too old world / Latin to go with Davian Merrill , sounds like a power conglomerate! Congrats on the child and good luck.

 

[Zona]

Joseph

Yup, it's a great default name. Unless your in the New York Metro area in which case don't do it. So Many Joes.
