Hi ladies so Im only 13w but I hate thinking of names, bubs has been nicknamed "Sonic" since our (DS almost 4) was told about his little bro or sis he called it sonic, now that I have been telling people they all love the name for a boy. What do you think? For what its worth Mika is DS name its finnish for michael as my Dh is finnish.
Im really confused in case he gets Nick for short I will have a Mick and a Nick...
erm, not a fan sorry hun
I think of Sonic the Hedgehog, the blue computer game character! Sorry!
really sounds like a joke name, sorry.
makes me think of a screwdriver
THANK YOU!! thats what I think sonic the hedgehog. My DH wont listern to me.
Sonic the hedgehog here ... But perhaps it's only coz I'm old.
I think all the people who are telling you they love the name are lying lol
It is not a name I personally would ever use for my child.
If you love Sonic the hedgehog it's a great tribute. Maybe you could call the next one Mario.
Sonique is fabulous but her real name is Sonia and I'm not sure that you can get away with Sonique if you're not prepared to rock a pair of gold tights.
Yep me too!:
I think of Sonic the Hedgehog, the blue computer game character! Sorry!
My mum even told me she likes the name, i think these replies should be enough to convience my DH not to use the above name.
Sorry, I immediately think of Sonic the Hedgehog too!
Another here who immediately thought of Sonic the hedgehog, sorry
I think of Mario and Sonic...not something I would like. I think Mario and Sonic are going to be around for a loooong time as well.
Sonic the hedgehog for sure...
But it's an awesome nickname! You can keep it for that purpose.
How about Stephan?
Actually when I first typed that my phone wrote Stepan, which is quite cool too. Works with Mika as a foreign name that's easy to pronounce.

I'd use it as a nickname too - we called bubs Peanut while we waited to meet her. We still use it now, although sometimes I also use a variation - while I was in hospital bring induced my mum joked to my dad that she wondered if our baby (we didn't find out gender) would be born with peanuts or no nuts! So I occasionally use 'no nuts' for DD :D
Nup. I have images of baseball caps worn backwards, jeans worn down near the knees, hangin' wit da hood and juvey court
But that's just me.
It's not just you Tashy.:
You could always use it as a middle name. I looked after a 2yr old boy who declared the name of his unborn brother to be "Fox in pyjama's" The parents gave the name Fox as a middle name once he was born.
I think of Sonic Hedgehog too.
I think it is a very cute nickname...in and out of the womb.
If you (or DH) like Sonic maybe something like Soini which is Finnish and fits with the Sonic nickname.
I also think of Sonic the hedgehog sorry.
please don't do it.
It's a pretty cool nickname, but I think I'd be looking for a name where it worked as a nickname.
If it was a name that holds meaning I'd maybe go the middle name route.
Usually my attitude is 'pretty much anything goes' with names; I've known friends with all sorts of pop culture or ethnic names that people just accept - if it's your name, it's your name. Even if it's a perhaps unwise name, you sort of giggle once and then you're used to it. So I'm vaguely surprised I'm hesitating at Sonic, but I am.
If you like it as a nickname though, we can help you think of a name to fit it. It is a kind of sweet story if the nickname your son gives bub influences your name choice. =)
Oh no, not a fan at all. Sorry
I thought this was a joke... No way.
I'll add another vote to help convince your DH!
Sonic is not a name I would take seriously, like other have said it sounds like a bit of a joke. Can you imagine being in a business meeting with Sonic trying to tell you how you can run your business better? It's a no from me.
maybe the ppl who said they like it think its cute that DS came up with the name, but as an actual name i dont like it sorry
Wonderful name for a pet. Not so much for a child.
If your uncertain about it I wouldn't use it, you don't want be feel hesitant in telling people your child's name! I gave my son an unusual middle name, and a traditional first name. Could work?
I too thought of the hedgehog. BUT it's growing on me! Sonny for short? lol, don't listen to me though, I named my son Axel. I like unusual names.
I must add, that one of my cousins was named after Thomas the tank engine by his older sibling. It would've been a different story though if it was Sonic the tank engine :)
yep I also thought of Sonic the hedgehog straight away as well and I don't even play computer games!
