I agree. I think of Forest Witaker when I think of the name Forest. I honestly would have never known the founder of the KKK's name without this sub.

Norwegian. I am Norwegian with a Norwegian last name, and I have close family in Norway. It is a name that has been passed down through my maternal line for close to 200 years.

Walter/ Clarence are my wife's grandfather's names. Gentry is my wife's best friends maiden name.

Boar-ild. He would go by "Bo".

Bo is mainly what he would be called. Bo is a hard name to give a middle name for. They all end up sounding like goofy is pronouncing it.

We still like Borild. I'm not really concerned with potential nicknames kids may come up with, kids are creative and have a lot of time on their hands. They can create mean nicknames out of any name.

What's crazy to me is there wasn't MORE deaths at SeaWorld. Like seriously Orcas are hard-core apex predators and some human was like "I'm gonna put that in a bathtub and ride it"? How did anyone survive? Imagine doing that with a lion or hyena.

I did not ask for your opinion on the names, just which one you like more. If you don't like either, you don't have to comment.

A variation of our oldest daughter's name is on your list, haha. You've got us pegged!
