Help"Joke" Names
Does anyone ever spend time making up combinations that make puns/words/references, etc.?
For example, I used to imagine telling people, whenever I got pregnant down the road, that I planned on naming a son Leopold Benjamin, or Leoben for short. (Leoben is the name a cylon uses in the Battlestar Galactica reboot.)
Recently, my boyfriend and I were discussing names. His favorite name for a boy is Adam. He's really into comics, so I jokingly suggested Adam Antium. (Adamantium is what Wolverine's bones are bonded to.)
His favorite name for a girl is Sara, and the other day, I came up with Sara Nadine. (Serenading)
To be clear, these are not names I have any intention of using.
So what do you think? And if you've ever engaged in this pastime, what are some of the names you've come up with?

Current favorites:
Callum / Tristram / Benedict / Hamish
Cordelia / Winifred / Edith / Margaret
