    Or, and this is just as an aside, perhaps name him after the person that taught you to shoot. That way it represents firearms use and honors someone that care enough to teach you.

    If you like to hunt you could name him Boone Crockett. B.C. would make a good nickname.

    How about Hodgdon? You could call him Hodg for short.

    Ummm..... Buffer Tube? :)

    I say skip the gun name and go straight for "Chuck Norris __________" and insert your last name at the end.

    I can't believe this hasn't gone bad yet. I know I have been tempted to say what I think of this and giving kids stupid names in general.

    My son had a friend named Colt Smith. Always made me think of both autos and revolvers.

    My wife actually likes Hawken. Trouble is I already have a nephew with that moniker.

    Doesn't really bother me... I had one first cousin and one second cousin with my same name.

    When I saw this thread, I KNEW it would be all over the map! Inasmuch as my oldest son is in his middle 50's now, and the youngest is almost 50, I haven't had any need of "thinking up" clever names for boys in quite some time now, but "back in the day", I was very good at this!

    My oldest is: Alec Christopher C

    A.C. has been with the U.S.N. (as a civilian E.E. ) for something like 23 or 24 yrs now.

    The youngest, (Ed ), is: Edmund Grayson Maximilian Constantine C

    Ed is a geologist & vulcanologist, and has something to do with predicting when volcanos are most likely to....."erupt"?

    My advice; pick a big long one; by the time he's "of age", he'll know which one he wants to "go with"; (Ed has been "Grayson" for about 30 yrs now, but I still call him "Ed" )

    Personally...

    I know a "Colt" and "Marlin".

    Each rolls surprisingly easily off the tongue.

    I tried to talk my son and his wife into naming their newest arrival "52 gr IMR 4064", but they wouldn't go for it. :)
