Naming your son/s after Everton players?

[caught]

I named my first three kids Barmby. My daughter's called Xavier and I sometimes call out "Hottiger-Degn-Thomas-Ward!" at the back of my wife's head during sex.

Should call the kid, the strac. Like in seinfeld, the drake

 

[canuckblue]

Named my previous dog Goodison.

I named my son after Jack Southworth who played for us in 1893. Played 32 games and scored 36 goals.

I like that archive thing on our official site. He had the beat goal scoring record so I chose him for my elaborate tale.

Would't do it for a current player as that would pretty much ensure he went judas and joined the RS or something.

My son Neville Gary Pat Kevin Derek Peter Trevor Adrian Graeme Sheedy isn't named after anyone in particular.

If your surname is Neville.. Please call him Neville.

Never, ever fails to make me smile that.

My Dad named my childhood cat Goodison. Was chuffed when I was old enough to work out why!

Personally I'd go for Leighton especially after the recent contract. Could always call him Phil Nikodem <Surname>? Or if you happen to be a fan of our American, Tim Howard <Surname>

Alan, a bit old fashioned but my god it holds some weight with many blues.

Failing that, how about Dean.

For those of you with a surname begining with 'C' you can have the initials E.F.C as I did with my daughter Emily Frances Cowan.

Come to think of it Dinyar is a lovely name for a young boy

Two true stories when I was born my Mum wanted me to be called Richard but whilst she was still in hospital my Dad registered my birth and I am named Graeme after Sharpy!

This is unbelievable but true, whilst Joe Max Moore played for us a lad I know had a baby girl he called her Jo-Max Maureen!

And if they're anything like the real Dinyar they will forever look like a young boy.

My brother called his son (Dixie) Dean Duncan Ferguson like. Ferguson being his actual surname.
