Roderick is a very strong name in my ear. Great meaning, great history. But also pretty loaded, if you'll forgive me. I definitely prefer the nn
Rod, not
Rick, but know that Hot
Rod is right down the road and comin fast, when little
Rod grows up. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing.
I have never known a child named
Roderick /
Rod; the two I've known were both grown men. They were both rather prone to posturing. One might say they were cocky. Each one a man's man, of a surety.
How about...
