I have family to honor with family names. My dogs are named after places in Alaska. There’s nothing wrong either way but I’ve seen a guy yell “Colt” and 3 hunting dogs, a pony and 4 kids come running. 😁
Ridiculous to do that. Besides Cooper, the founder of the rifle company, is a real gun control liberal and contributed to Obama's campaign. I believe he is no longer affiliated with the company.
I've known dogs named: Remington, Eley, Briley, Ruger, Krieghoff etc. but to do that to your kids? Then again, there was that English singer, Dusty Springfield. I could see a daughter named Elsie Smith - - - . Winchester could work for a guy or Winny for a girl. Boss (it's a high end English Shotgun) could be a cool name, then all those Pakistani gas station guys would actually know your name. "Anything else there Boss?"
My dad coached a couple of twin boys of color in little league baseball.......swore they both claimed to go by the same name....so the coaches had to get creative to distinguish the two...

Kid my son went to daycare with was named Remington. I had to ask when I met the kid’s folks if it was after the gun company or Remington Steel, it was the gunmaker.

Maybe it’s just me but every 4 year named Colton at our church, needed his ass to up. With a belt or even a shoe
My Great Grandson, 5 yrs old, is Justin Roper Johnson, his Daddy is a rancher, and a roper and his mother--my granddaughter is a Barrel racer and Roper, and a hell of a ranch wife. Being a old Rancher I like the name. Rio7
No, stop naming your kids stupid fuggin names. Also stop naming your kids fairly common name but changing the spelling and making it miserable for everyone else that ever has too spell their name throughout their life , especially their teachers etc. it’s just fuggin stupid stop doing dumb crap.

And we have had three in 10 or so years.
Edit one was named Colson but same deal
Yeah, there is sumtin up with that "colt" name.
This kids mom claims she named him after the malt liquor though.
I gave up parental rights on my son, Remlin, because he no longer exists. My son, Mannlicher, is getting teased a lot in junior high. Can't figure out why.

Pete and repeat.....
We had a similar problem when I worked in Miami........
Had a Jose that was in our 'area' for quite a while, then along comes another Jose................
I have known Cash, Match, Cougar, Houston(where he was conceived),ruger, and yes I agree with ridgerunnerky about screwing up the spelling of your kids name. I do highschool and college sporting events and you would not believe how badly a parent can screw up the spelling. I had a player one time that when you looked at the name was pronounced a simple way, but I found out after saying it that I was nowhere close to how it was suppose to be according to the parent. The way they pronounced it and how it was spelled where not even in the same dictionary. As far as names that don't match the spelling with the name are the inner city kids, wow.
Coltons drop spud wrenches down the drill hole when doing BOP testing and hooking up hydraulics...... Coltons dont use dummy cords with their tools cause they are high speed. Coltons cause 2 days of down time on 450k daily rate off shore oil rigs. Coltons cause the drill floor, deck, and crane crew to pull 5700 ft of drill pipe and BOP pressure testing tool. Rerig everything and go back into the hole with a magnetic tool to get Coltons 12 inch spud wrench he dropped 5700 ft... Then pull it all again and rerig to do BOP testing again.
Coltons dont get fired cause unca is the drill floor pusher and dada is one on another rig....
Coltons get sent to another rig. Cause Colton feels ashamed and thinks everyone hates him and colton's dont see the need for dummy cords when working around a open drill hole on the drill floor.....
Coltons are worth keeping on after 900k of down time on a leased rig.
Colton was lucky his spud wrench didnt damage the annualar after backing off the riser tower 1 section up for the ROV inspection. Pulling and resetting a Annualar/ possibly the whole 45 ft tall BOP probably woulda got Colton a bad write up which unca and dada woulda protected him from down the line anyways.
Dont be a Colton is the moral of the story and you wont sit by yourself in the Galley during chow times for the rest of the hitch. Next 21 day hitch Colton got transferred to another rig. AMF Colton.......... LOL!!!
Ho lee phouck.....diaper till he was almost 3 yrs old. Braining other infants in the nursery with Tonka trucks, choking on legos. Little bastard get all red and splotchy like Lupus before a meltdown.

Grover Cleveland XxXxxx,s original thru IV are a special type also.
Sorry man.... I couldn't resist...
LMFAO!!!!
Once again, there is nothing more stupid than putting "Last Name Roman Numeral" on the back of jerseys. The Roman numeral has nothing to do with the freaking last name, it refers to the first name.
Then you have the people who give their boys real "tough guy" names that the kids will never be able to live up to.
My mothers best friend growing up her Dads real name was Shirley. EVERYONE called him Red. He was a bear of a man. Only reason I knew his name was Shirley because my Mom told me.

I gifted my long time hunting bud a Springfield. He loves that gun, named it Dusty Springfield...
Not sure about gun names for kids. I do know a guy who's first name is Colt...
Slightly off topic, but I know of a boat named Dickens Cider. Say it fast. Always thought that amusing.
Oh yeah, I like to warm mine up a bit. On a cool fall morning there is nothing like a warm Dicken's Cider. My wife likes to let hers ferment for a while before she has it. Yup, she prefers a hard Dicken's Cider.
I have a daughter and two sons. Son #1 is Gunnar Benjamin and #2 is Steyr Jensen. Both have a family name and an cultural/heritage name included as part of their first/middle names.
No, my daughter is not named after a Steyr rifle model.... don't even go there!
