Baby Name Game - UPDATE!!
by Mrs @ MHH on Dec 2, 2010 2:08 PM MST

PrintWe were just going to do this with family, but Mike said to open it up and you guys are like family,
so here goes. Here's the idea. Below are the top 10 list of possibilities for Baby @MHH #2!
What was suggested was that everybody pick what they think is the name and if you're right
you get bragging rights (or whatever I can think of), but if you're wrong you get to give him
a box/pack of diapers! :-)
We're still working on a middle name to go with these, so I can't even help you out there, sorry! But I will go ahead and give you all our names. Mike (obviously), Jessie, and Riley Thompson.
Okay, without further ado and in no particular order:
Gavyn
Morgan
Logan
Parker
Hadrian
Aurelius
Miles
Shaun
Zachary
Oliver
Now the only rule I can think of is that you have to pick before the baby comes (due Dec. 9), 'cause obviously we're going to tell then. This is all in fun, but you don't have to play if you don't want to! Just email me or Mike or comment below with your selection and we'll keep a list. Have fun!
AND THE WINNER IS:
Gavyn Oliver born Dec. 1: 8 lbs 10 oz. Mrs. and Baby doing great!!

I pick none of the above and say you should go with “Thor”
I thought it was pretty Osgood to take a Bertuzzi behind the Draper, but it ended up blowing the Abdelkader of my Kronwall.
Ha! Don’t tempt Mike. You have no idea how many comic book names I’ve shot down. Logan is my only concession.
My older brother says he’s not having his second kid until his wife gives up her fight and allows Thor (hence the response)

I have a brother named Logan and I’m pretty sure he’s OK with that name.
Mile High Hockey: Significantly better than the experts predicted, just like the Avalanche.
I have a friend expecting, last name of Kong.
I keep trying to convince him to name the kid Don K. He won’t go for it.

I must say that I'm stunned.
I figured that Mike would have picked Hadrian immediately.
The kid would be a wall and would be obliged to be a keeper.

I’ve said for years that I would name my first son Testiclees and my second son Super Joe.
I’m willing to let you guys use Super Joe.
Mile High Hockey: Significantly better than the experts predicted, just like the Avalanche.
Gotta check the anagrams:
Michael Logan Thompson
Melanoma Clothing Shop
Nationals Mooch Phlegm
Thong Maniac Smell Pooh
Morgan Parker Thompson
Mapmakers Throng Porno
Mats Monk, Pornographer
Orphan Postmark Monger
Gavyn Miles Thompson
Gals Vomit Hemp Sonny

I bet Dater would approve of Hadrian. I’m sure he gets it a lot from his NE buddies. “Hey Adrian,” kind of blending together.

Hadrian or Gavyn
there’s a 7 year old kid at the rink named Gavyn who puts every player (that includes kids twice his age) to shame skill wise so the name must give him mad skillz.

I know a Gavin with an I, his only skill is getting hurt. (Unlike me who has the skill of making stupid decisions before getting hurt aswell as just getting hurt) Maybe the Y makes him smarter

Miles is OK with me, so long as he either, a), never plays the trumpet, or, b), becomes the greatest trumpet player of all time.
Thanks Joe...

You could name him Ryan. Then when you introduced your kids you have Ryan and Riley. ORLY.

I’m not sure how but I must have quickly passed over the Savage suggestion up there.
In all seriousness, well maybe 51% seriousness, you should go with….

Have you and Mike put in the requisite Buccigross name the baby request? I think it’s necessary if you wish to be taken seriously as a hockey fan.

It cannot be shown that luck actually exists, hence luck is nothing more than a word used by one in a self delusional assumption of understanding events of which one is informed or which one witnesses. As such, it is a word which superstitious people use to simultaneously presume to have insight into events and, paradoxically, to cease efforts to understand the causes and effects of those same events.
Reviving the anagram thread from above:
Gavyn Oliver Thompson:
+ Holy Vegans Vomit Porn
+ A Hymen Loving Provost
+ Many involving the word “Hangover”
I think you have yourselves a winner.
Congratulations!
Detroit is peopled entirely by slovenly ill-informed troglodytes, excepting of course the few Avalanche fans who are victims of unfortunate circumstance.
Congrats! :)
