The only names that don’t feel very usable to me are [name_m]Flavius[/name_m], [name_m]Baron[/name_m], and DeArnol. Zabina might be better for a girl…

for a girl might be nice, I agree.

DeArnol is quite the ugliest name around, but because he was my favorite great uncle I do remember it fondly. Once had a truck we called DeArnol!

I envy that you have a [name_m]Rockwell[/name_m] in your family. I love that name. But I’m afraid it would sound like I was trying a bit too hard to be cool if I used it without some family link. [name_m]Rocco[/name_m]'s a great nickname, too.

I think every one except [name_m]Baron[/name_m] and DeArnol is usable. Zabina is probably better off on a girl.

[name_m]Rockwell[/name_m] or [name_m]Rockwell[/name_m] [name_m]Kent[/name_m], both interesting artists. I think it is usable by anyone who likes it.
