This is what a mutual acquaintance just named her son. His full name is Xykrex Spencer Delile J Lastname. I don't know what they were smoking, but I want some. Good god. "An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way." -Charles Bukowski

It must have been good for the name to be that bad.

I don't know how to say it, even. Very planet far far away-ish.

ZAI KAI rex? Oh dear. It's annoyingly attention-seeking. Are the parents annoyingly attention-seeking?

How is it pronounced? Never mind, I see now you answered this question already. I had checked for that before asking, but I missed it the first time.It sounds kind of neat, almost Biblical. I might assume it's Biblical, upon hearing it, hearing it only, not seeing it. But the spelling will be a headache.

What doesn't kill you, and all that?

If it doesn't kill him is the key concept there!I think he will just go by Xyk (zike?), or maybe Spencer. Honestly, if I were him and people asked my name I would say "Letters. My name is just Letters."

Looks like the name of a medicine or an alien.

My word, it sounds like the name of a cheesy 90's alien. Geez...

I obviously don't have very strict standards about what's an acceptable name, but...I don't know. I don't even have the words.

I could see DeLile possible as a surname turned mn, but I have to agree with RoxStar. Xykrex looks like a medicine. Spencer is fine, though.

I have no idea how to say that but it makes me wanna say xerox which oddly enough was the name of a character I wrote when I was 11, I spelled it Zeroc which I don't even know. I didn't even remember that until reading this, hahaha.

Apparently, it's ZAI-KAI-rex. I have no idea how she jammed the extra syllable in, but I guess when you create your own name you can make up your own rules.

wha? I would not have guessed that. My thoughts were zike-rex or ex-eye-krecks or maybe hee-krecks
