Legion....

I had doubts at first but the name is really starting to grow on me. Might settle on Legion Bane... we will call him Bane though. Any thoughts??


Also we thought we were having twins at first... Legion Bane and Draven Cane.

You know what's better than Legion, Legend, he will be the coolest most unique baby ever!

Doesnt Bane have a fairly unpleasant meaning? Like, the bane of your existence?

If this isn't mud, consider giving your child a real name that doesn't make him sound like a super villain.

Actually Bane is supposed to mean long awaited child, Hawaiian origin. I don't know what mud means, I'm new to these forums.

MUD means made up drama.

The meaning is cute, but I'm sure you could find a better name with the same meaning. I get trying to be unique, but that's too "youneek," KWIM? You have to consider what the kids are going to say in school, what it's going to look like on a job application, etc.

Thank you.. I needed this input rather than negativity.

So you are pronouncing it BAH-nay instead of BANE?

Totes give your kids rhyming middle names!  And why would you name him Legion if you are going to call him Bane?

Squeeeelllll... I have an idea!  I like the suggestion of Legend, maybe you could give him the MN of Ary so your LO will be Legend Ary?

A group of demons of death....Nice name....Please think things through before you name your child! No one is trying to be negative, just honest. You had to have know that Legion Bane would be questioned!!!!

This was my first thought. 

Has anyone seen Storm of the Century?  "I am legion, for we are many". Gives me the heebie jeebies! 

OP, we're not (usually) trying to be mean. Just trying to make sure you really think a name through before you attach it to a real person for their entire life.
I'm getting so big!

I just want to give you a world as beautiful as you are to me.

I really hope you don't have twins. Those are awful names.

I just saw in your post below that the last name is Barker - so he would be Legion Bane Barker, and you would call him Bane Barker? Yikes. That does sound like an evil villain kind of name. Just think what it will look like on an adult, on a resume. No one could take him seriously.

This. Please, please do NOT name your child Legion Bane. This name is setting him up for a rough life.

This was my first thought. It's almost like you're setting your child up to act like a demon. "Well, his name IS Legion so..."

Okay straight up question ladies. Do you honestly not recognize this as MUD or are you just playing along? Because many of these responses sound very serious and that makes me both want to laugh and cry.
