What do you think of the name Godric?

I think it sounds benevolent. Not pregnant or anything -that’s a long way off. But I really like this name. I love Viking names. I know it’s a little different but… I hate overused names. If I ever have a girl I want to name her [name]Genevieve[/name] or [name]Agatha[/name].

I think of [name]True[/name] Blood, but I only watched the first few seasons & read a few of the books. I’m sure the current story line probably doesn’t involve much of that character.

I do think having God as the first syllable of your child’s name could come off as having a touch of ego, like [name]Kinga[/name], [name]Kingston[/name], [name]Queenie[/name], [name]Majesty[/name], ect. It might not have that intent for the parents at all, but it could be interpreted that way by some. I like [name]Kinga[/name] & I like [name]Cassius[/name], but the “king” & “cash” parts of those names were enough to turn me away from them.

I like the viking feel of the name and I like the sound of it.

I would get ready for a lifetime of “[name]Hi[/name], God!”, “God, eat your vegetables!”, and so on. Depending of your sense of humour, it could be funny or annoying.

That being said, it’s a cool name. It gives me a very fantastic / medieval / teutonic / anglo-saxon vybe — not really Viking or scandinavian, though.

I think of Godric Gryffindor, but I’m a giant [name]Harry[/name] [name]Potter[/name] nerd :slight_smile:
