    First name Cash

    Last name Burns

    J-Zone should be the kid's godfather.


    What's going to be hot is when he has to fill out a form or something with last name first. Shit's gonna say "Burns, Cash." The lady accepting the form will look at him and he'll say, "Damn right I do" and flash a disarming grin.

    Rocket was on a recent episode of that show "Pros vs. Joes" or whatever.

    And Cash Rockit Burns is an awesome name.

    He'll eventually pick up the nickame or dj name of Cash Rock and he'll meet a nice lady who he'll take on a vacation to the Caribbean. She'll lay out in the sun too long and when she gets back to the hotel she'll say "Cash Rock it Burns." He'll say "huh, why are you saying my name?"

    hell yes you still like it. It fuckin rules.


    I think he'll need to eventually team up with Ako, whose real name, which escapes me right now, is also something ill like Nash, right? They'd have to be detectives or maybe a rockabilly duo.

    cool name.

    Now all you gotta do is find him a little friend called tango.

    So his name will be Cash Rockit Burns?

    Sorry but that name sounds horrible imo.

    all gouda, I expected more folks to hatt. I dig it though and that's what matters. If he hates it and wants to play the grown and sexy role when he grows up he can be Cash R. Burns.

    b/w when the hell you gonna re-up the purple mix? and no I won't change his name if you do.
  • G_BalliandoG_Balliando 3,916 Posts
    Tons of parents these days are choosing more obscure names for their kids though. I'm sure by the time the kid is grown, there will be a lot of other kids with names that are a bit unconventional. I think it's cool.

    No doubt, I actually like those names seperately, just seems a bit much all put together. Cash is a pretty rad first name.

    Congrats, btw!

    For sure. I've never met someobdy with an obscure type of name who wasn't at least interesting. I think it deifnitely plays a part in personality.

    Great name, original names are the shit!
    My daughters name is Beezus Bedelia Murphy, so I know the road you are going down.
    Prepare for the gas face from many older folks. Not that it really matters what they think,
    but it does get tiresome explaining it to people over and over.

    I think it has less to do with the name itself and more to do with the fact that kids whose parents pick strange names tend to raise the kids in unconventional ways/environments.


    Anyway I think Rockit is a great middle name, an eight year old could've come up with some off-the-wall shit but I think that's pretty nice.
