My brother thinks I'm a nerd (jk) for naming my fifth child Jonathan Kal-El. My son's first name is after my brother. I don't really care what he or anyone else thinks about his name. I'm just curios if you or anyone else you know what also named after a comic hero?

ok grow up and get some education. There are many people in this world that are named after other people, actresses, actors, cartoon shows in this world. For instance my mother was named Marilyn after Marilyn Monroe. Heck my mother was even named by her parents neighbor because they never expected to have a girl after three boys.

ok yes kids are cruel but it really doesn't matter what you name a child other kids will find some way to poke funof others whether it's their name (any part of it) , the clothes they wear, who they hang out with. Come on we live in a society of judgemental people and they may not even know you. But I choose to raise above all of that and I choose to raise my children to not judge someone before they really get to know them.

name your child whatever YOU want to! who cares what other people say, besides, how many people ever even learn someone else's middle name? i think it's pretty neat personally. i know people who have given their children names from Lord of the Rings and others who've named their children after characters in the game EverQuest. uniqueness is grand!

I don't know anybody who's named after a comic hero, but you name your child whatever you want. Nameing him Jonathan Kal-El is unique and different and totally your business, what others think is no one's business. (but naming the kid 4Real is a little silly LOL) Anyway. You are right - kids will be made fun of (usually) no matter what. My mom's maiden name was russian and rhymed with the f-word soooo ... use your imagination LOL.

yes actually i know a little boy named Clark. i have gotten asked a few times if it was intentional and when i say yes ppl are always like o ok. they are major fans of Smallville and have other names from that picked out for any future children. i think it is a bad idea to name a child anything that has such a strong reference to a character or famous person. he is guarantied to get picked on. however for you it is just the middle name so its not that bad.

I don't know anyone who named their child after a comic hero but I do have a friend who named her children Seth, Ryan, Summer, and Marissa after characters on that TV show The OC.

If you want to do that, then that's fine. That's your right to name your child what you want no matter what others think or say. It's not any different than some of the names celebrities come up for their kids like "Apple" or "Coco."

Sorry, I don't.

I think the difference is between taking a name (that a lot of other people also share) from a human character versus taking the name of a character from another planet. You do what you like, but a lot of people are not going to understand, and your son may not be thrilled when he gets older.
