gun-related names for boys?

There's a reason 90% of the names being pitched weren't the given names of the inventors being referenced. Last names are not first names (and vice versa).

Also worth mentioning that there is a strong correlation between odd names and poverty & criminality. It is not known if it is due to reduced opportunity resulting from prejudice, damaged self esteem, or genetically inherited from parents dumb enough to burden their kid with a stupid name like 'Harvest'

All of my suggestions have been suggested, I'm not clever enough to come up with another, I really like Wilson

The 2 I mentioned earlier said they got tired of their name being a topic of conversation being pre-judged.
 
Bruno.... as a derivative of BRNO
Carl, from Carl Gustav

Good luck, hope the emotional scarring will be minimal :)

That one made me LOL.

Bushmaster would be better around his friends in high school.

That said don't try and get cute with a name it might wear off it's coolness after you say it a quarter million times before the age of 4.
 
Too many people ruining their offspring by giving 'em stupid names. Don't wreck the kid before he even gets here.
Whitney is a girl's name too.

I was going to make the same suggestion. Not stupid, not easily mockable, the kid can learn to spell it before the end of 3rd grade, and people looking at job applications won't immediately throw them in the trash.

Not in my class, but another teacher once had a student named Nihniquellie. Think she will ever get an interview anywhere except a strip club?

Names matter. Studies show that prisons are full of people who were saddled with odd names and couldn't handle all the mockery.

Whitney is a girl's name too.

One of my all time favorite students is a girl named Whitney. Smart, great sense of humor, and it turned out that when she got into high school that she discovered a love for small bore rifle shooting.
 
I once met an FBI agent named Matt Dillon. This was in Oklahoma about 1990.
