[name_u]Storm[/name_u]! I love it, Fransisco is so overdone

I 100% favor [name_m]Francisco[/name_m] to [name_u]Storm[/name_u]. Partly because I dislike made up names, partly because it reminds me of a female X-Men character, but I really just think [name_m]Francisco[/name_m] is a much better name and I love your reasoning for choosing the name. [name_m]Cisco[/name_m] does remind me a bit of computer programming but it still sounds cute.

I much prefer the nn [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] over [name_m]Cisco[/name_m]!

Okay so I really like [name_u]Storm[/name_u] because I can imagine him as a strong character (In a novel or a videogame perhaps) and I like the name and I can actually imagine it on a boy, especially a teenager, but then again I’m not sure if that’s just my inclination to be drawn to more ‘unique’ names (ie my signature :slight_smile: ).

[name_m]Francisco[/name_m] is cool but I personally don’t like how it sounds.

Why not look at names that mean storm, water, rain, etc…?

[name_m]Cisco[/name_m] is a huge corporation that has something to do with networking, and Sysco is a huge corporation involved in food distribution. And Sisqo is the name of the guy who sings “Thong Song.” So I personally do not have good associations with the nn [name_m]Cisco[/name_m]- definitely NMS. But I think [name_m]Francisco[/name_m] is a lovely name! I think nn [name_m]Frank[/name_m]/[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] are both kind of cute

Why now just go with [name_m]Francisco[/name_m] [name_u]Storm[/name_u] and use both?

[name_m]Francisco[/name_m] feels like a geniunely cool name to me, whereas [name_u]Storm[/name_u] feels like what a preteen boy would name his role-playing character. I think [name_u]Storm[/name_u] could be nice in the middle with something different anchoring it as a first name (not necessarily something more conservative/safe, just something more name-like), but as a first name [name_m]Francisco[/name_m] feels much cooler to me.

And [name_m]Cisco[/name_m] is very cool! That reminds me of the [name_u]Seven[/name_u] siblings. Three siblings from [name_m]New[/name_m] Zealand who all model - [name_f]Zippora[/name_f], [name_m]Jasper[/name_m], and [name_m]Cisco[/name_m]. I thought that was such a cool set of names for siblings the first time I heard it.

[name_u]Storm[/name_u] also makes me think of the X-Men character. There’s a new X-Men movie coming out later this year with [name_u]Halle[/name_u] [name_u]Berry[/name_u] playing her again, so that’s something to be aware of.

[name_m]Francisco[/name_m] has style and substance so it’s a clear winner here. I [name_f]LOVE[/name_f] San [name_m]Francisco[/name_m]!!! :slight_smile: I think a parent is just asking for trouble if they choose a name like [name_u]Storm[/name_u] for a child (what’s next - siblings called Temper Tantrum, Agitated and [name_m]Moody[/name_m]?). I can’t imagine seeing [name_u]Storm[/name_u] as an adult or grandfather.

[name_u]Storm[/name_u] is such a tough baby boy name, I love it! I knew a little boy named [name_m]Malachi[/name_m] [name_u]Storm[/name_u] and I thought that was way cool!

I think [name_m]Francisco[/name_m] [name_u]Storm[/name_u] would be beyond awesome.
