Im having difficulty finding names I like. I need two - three names that roll off the tongue and wouldn't be out of place with a long hyphenated surname.

No religious names

No surnames

No places

Nothing that rhymes with Aden

Upvote good suggestions otherwise post ones. Bonus points if it's a sci-fi name.

Edit: lots of good suggestions, but I think I'm going with 'Wash'.

IDK, does Thor or Odin count as a religious name? I always thought Yoda could work as a name.

On the completely awful side, why not Krys?

Trogdor?

I too vote Trogdor bonus points for middle name Burninator

Eowen, it means "Bear God"... unless that's too religious.

Arthur and Beowolf are also bear names, if so.

You're absolutely right, but in my defense I was typing while buying thirteen pairs of gloves at a Dollar Tree.

Iggy... fun and certainly rolls right into a hyphenated name.

eg: Iggy Sampson Poindexter-McDuff

I'm having a daughter at the end of April. We plan on calling her Dylan. You should name him Dylan then they would have a random stranger twin situation.
