I’ve been thinking about naming a boy Negan after I watched the more recent seasons of The Walking Dead. Any thoughts on that? I think it’s a very interesting name and I like it but I’m not too sure on how my wifey feels about it.
I don’t think there is anything wrong with chosing names after characters but Negan may not be the right choice, considering who he is in the story. Plus Negan is such an uncommon choice that everyone would think of that character.
I agree with PP. I think naming children after TV characters is great, and I have names on my list thanks to TV characters, but Negan is a villain. He killed and tortured people. I wouldn’t wanna name my child after him, no matter how much I love the character.
I agree with PP. I would steer away, but if you really loved Neagen, you could try [name_u]Reagan[/name_u]. However, I don’t recommend.
Nothing wrong with doing so but even though I have a weird crush on Negan the character, he’s not the best character to be named after.
I don’t see an issue with it, but I’ve never watched the TV show and so was unfamiliar with the character. Generally I don’t see a problem with using a name from a TV show, and even the names of villains can be usable in my opinion (for example I really like the name Azula, which is the name of a villain in one of my favourite animated TV shows).
I love the idea of naming a kid after a TWD character, but I personally don’t like the name Negan. There’s other nice names like [name_m]Simon[/name_m], [name_u]Daryl[/name_u], [name_m]Rick[/name_m], [name_m]Aaron[/name_m], etc…
