Naming your child after Audio equipment?


My husband is a frequent Audiogoner and always mentioned if we had another child, and if it was a boy, he wanted to name him after an audio manufacturer's name he's always liked. We had settled on another name (both are original sounding names) and I've even gone so far as to say we can now use the "manufacturer's" name as a middle name. He's arguing that it doesn't "flow" right (his version of the name will cause the initials not to be very flattering).

Now that the baby is almost here (I've already told him if he arrives when he's at CES, I win) it's coming down to the wire. Keep in mind, he no longer owns this manufacturer's equipment (not my doing!).

I've read many threads and thought this would make for an interesting one. What are your opinions?

Thanx in advance.

If your kids a superhero or a member of the ring then "ARAGON" would be perfect
I've actually known a dude whose first name was Nokia, that's the phone company. He said his unwed mother was so thrilled with her first cell-phone that she couldn't help but name him after it.

I named our boat EIDOLON (Robinhood 33). Having since sold her (and renamed FOSTER CHILD), my wife now insists that the new vessel NOT be named after any audio equipment. No one ever got the connection with audio and many thought it was a play on words "idle on".
