I remember in one of the early pokemon games (Blue maybe) I got stuck in one of those sea cave areas, could not find the way out, so just got my last pokemon to the point of using 'struggle' for recoil damage until everyone had fainted, to escape the wretched caves. Strategy of desperation lol.
I remember struggling past the first two levels of Tooie (including that rotating, arrow shooting early boss), then I accidently clicked new game or something on the title screen. Was so devo I didnt play again for weeks.

Ah yes, like people who call their kids Coco after Coco Chanel, not realising that Coco was her nickname. DUMB!

Except that's not his name. He spells his name Andriy.Here is the best Andrei:
This is best when the parents are in fact so poor the only Chanel they will ever own is from the Queen Vic Markets and has the tag of a cheap chinese product still hanging off the inside.
Thoughts on just plain old Max?? I'm considering that name. I heard it's pretty popular in Australia now but not so much in North America. Being a Cats supporter, I kinda like it
Works with a surname of Power (gratuitous Simpsons reference) or Smart.
If the surname is Wiener, I'm not sure.
At least its a name, unlike many of the atrocities on this thread. Go with it.

mmmm, erotic cakes
Another example is people calling their kids Che after Che Guevara.

Yeh I realise it's a Jew name, but I always think of The Little Mermaid when I see it...
Yep, would go with Maxwell. Lots of decent names are nicknames though. Max, Jimmy, Matt, Ben, Josh etc.

Agree but always give them the full name so that they have options. Short names can suck.
James: Jim, Jimmy, Jamie - at least 4 options
Mark: Marcus, Marky - 3 options and 1 of them is a somewhat related full name and the other really shouldn't count.
Another of those "no it's acutally spelt like...." ones, I remember at my old bank there was a young teller whose name was "Crystal", but spelt KRISSTLLE.

My old man wanted to call me Frederick (because he loved the nickname Fred).
He decided it was a bit too old fashioned though.
I personally like the name Frederick.

And whilst I don't mind the name Mikaela, spelling it as Makayla is just terrible.
