Ridiculous

I once knew someone who had this as a middle name, and this was my "joke name" for a while, when I was trying to pick a new name - Xanadu Pfiffer. To me it's like the epitome of a wacky name. I like it.

There are much better X beginning names. Xena, Xenia, Xavier, just not that.

It’s kind of cool, but I don’t really see it as a name.

I recall posting on here about Xanadu a long time ago, but I can't find the message. Anyway, it's a huge GP of mine. Most people probably think of the Coleridge poem, but I have to admit that my first association is the song by Rush (and then the rest of the album A Farewell to Kings).

It's wildly impractical as a person's real name, though.
