Is it ok to name a boy Lando if your not a Starwars nut?

I love the name, like the character, but am not a Starwars nut, my husband says thats the only way it would be acceptable to name a child Lando.


Nut is not a bad thing for those of you who might feal offended.

Is it ok to name a boy Lando if your not a Starwars nut?
Lando is a fine name, only those who are Star Wars enthusiast will recognize the name from that. I think that maybe your husband isn't that big on the name. The name should be something that the two of you agree on.
Reply:I don't see a reason why not, do you like landon? That's similar and not star wars related
Reply:no you don't have to be a fan of anything. what does that matter? name your kid what you want to.
Reply:you could make is short for Orlando, which means "one who is famous throughout the land". It is also the name of a lot of characters in a lot of books, including some by Virginia Wolfe
Reply:dont do it.


the kid will probably be made fun of.


go with something normal....the weirdest i would suggest is Emery.
Reply:I think it's a cool name and that you would not have to be a Star Wars junkie to name him that.
Reply:Personally, I don't like that name. I like the name Landon, with an 'n', but Lando sounds like an alien. Sorry!





If you want to, though, then go ahead!





Congrats!

Reply:yes
Reply:yes, if you like the name you don't have to be a starwars nut.
Reply:yah its perfectly fine...if you like you can say its OR-LANDO shortened for individuality!
Reply:Why? I know someone who named their kid Zion Aniken!





Zion: The city they were defending in the Matrix





Aniken: Aniken Skywalker of Star Wars





And, they aren't really big fans of either of the movies. Lando isn't horrible but Zion Aniken....
Reply:I haven't watched Star Wars so I wouldn't have known where you got the idea. Lando, Lando, yeah I think I like it, it's different.
Reply:The name Lando is seen in more places than Star Wars. It's a nice name. I'd say you were a Star Wars nut if you named the baby something like Anakin or Leia.
Reply:How about something close like Landon? I'm not a big fan of the name Lando personally.
Reply:i find that name rather odd but no you do not have to be a star wars nut to name your child that
Reply:You could name him Landon because that is a good name too without being connected to Starwars. If you want to call him Lando as a nickname you then can!





Just pick one that feels right! Congrats!
Reply:I'm not a Starwars nut by any means, yet I really like the name Lando.
Reply:i'm not a big fan of Lando. what about:


- Landon - meaning: precocious - origin: English


- Lander - meaning: rich - origin: English


in my opinion i love Landon more.

Reply:Whatever floats your boat!
Reply:Yea why not your just picking a word to name your kid it has nothing to do with star wars its your choice not everyone elses.
Reply:You could call the kid Orlando and have Lando for short. Never heard of the character and think the name's unusual, but go ahead if you really want. Just be prepared for the possibility of the child being picked on for their name....
