[Opinions] Nirvana
This was the name of a 1 yr old girl on the show "Moving up" on The Learning Channel. The parents were rock and roll so to speak with leather furiture and leopard printed curtians. The baby was named after their favorite band Nirvana. Now,I like Nirvana as a name for a band but not for a little girl. WDYT?~Kai

Lame on a little girl.If they really wanted to honour Nirvana (which I wouldn't--they're a decent band, but they're incredibly overhyped and not one of my favourites), they should've named the girl something nice and subtle--Frances, perhaps. Polly.Not Nirvana.Or else, they should've gone with Nirvana as a middle name. I couldn't care less what people do with middle names; because they don't get used much at all, I don't see why there should be any restrictions on them. Array

Nirvana is my favourite band but I think it's cruel for a kid, even Nevaeh probably wouldn't get teased at school ...alice x

I wouldn't name a child after something as transient as a modern band, a car, a pop star. Nirvana is an especially bad example of this, because of the whole Kurt Cobain thing.

Ick. I dislike naming children after any celebrities, and now, their bands. I don't care for the name, anyway, as I think it isn't flattering.

Small consolation, imo.
