Ok, I chose the first name of our first born... he is Samuel L... so the agreement was she'd get to choose the first name of our next child

Last Friday we found out she's pregnant again,

For a girl we like Abigail but for a boy she wants Elias (the likes the name from the character on person of interest) and didn't know that I've been playing a character named Elias Windrider and going by that screen name on forums since 2005. I told her that I'd prefer not to name our son after one of my rpg characters but she's insisting on Elias so yeah if we have another boy Elias is the frontrunner

Grats on your breeding abilities. Sadly that is not as cool as the guy I met in my office, who's last name is Walker. I will give you one guess on what he gave his son for a first and middle name.

Luke Sky Walker

That is correct, and I can confirm it from the kids birth certificate. I told him he had excellent taste in naming conventions, and when he left my office, he said "May the Force be with you." That was a pretty fun session at work

I was going to guess Texas Ranger Walker. Alas.

Originality would have dictated the first and middle name to have ben John, and Ny.

But Luke and Sky are, of course, rather nice names as well.

I've always liked the names Matthias and Asher, myself.

It's a good thing my name isn't Walker, and that the whole process of human procreation generally means that there's another person involved to curtail my less good ideas otherwise there'd be a decent chance I'd pick quite terrible Star Wars names.

Not Luke Sky, Anakin Sky or even Shmi Sky.

More like Scout, Imperial and Alvin Thomas Andrew Theodore...

Congrats.

Just because it’s the same name, it doesn’t mean your son is named after your character. Just fate. And you can’t fight fate.

-Formerly known as Ghatt.

Had a friend in high school with the last name Poole.

He swore if he had sons, he’d name them Wade and Seth.

To the OP:

Have you considered asking the father what name he prefers?

I got to choose Samuel for the first name of our first born, it's her turn to choose, and I actually like the name Elias, I wouldn't have chosen for my character in 2005 if I didn't, I just don't want my son named after a rpg character.

Maury and I were implying that perhaps YOU ARE NOT THE FATHER.

I was kind of wondering if that's what you meant.

You would name someone myself?

Giving you a hard time, Matthias and Asher are good names. I always like to see people name their kids names that are not the norm like how Michael, Stephen, Daniel seem to be or Mathew.
