The Name Game

As you can see on the right, my husband has created a mini poll so all you bloggers can have a say in the naming of our baby. I predict that all the names Adam likes best will win (he likes to cheat and vote several times). Oh look, I see the vote is 100% William. What a surprise. Anyhoo, I thought I'd provide you with some pros and cons to influence your voting.

William
Meaning "helmet of will" or "determined protector"
Pros:

• It was my grandfather's name
• It was Adam's uncle's name
• It has a bunch of different short forms to choose from: Will, Willy, Bill, Billy, Liam
• It's been around forever and nobody is likely to think that it's a weirdo name or an old man's name

Cons:

• My grandfather went by his middle name (Allen) anyway
• Our friends Becca and Drew are probably going to name their son William (and Becca's going into labour first)
• I'm worried that it will be too common. As a Jennifer among millions, I wouldn't want to do that to my son
  

Payton
Meaning: Village of the Warrior
Pros:

• I dunno, it's okay

Cons:

• But only okay

Rogan
Meaning: red-haired
Pros:

• It sounds okay

Cons:

• Our child is unlikely to have red hair
• It sounds a bit like a girl's name. I'm reminded of Rogue from X-men

Eret
Meaning: Honour
Pros:

• It's actually a fun bastardisation of my Mom's maiden name "Ehret"
• Other children are unlikely to have the same name
• The meaning is cool

Cons:

• I don't think my mom even likes her maiden name
• My husband's Polish relatives are unlikely to pronounce it properly

Allen
Meaning: Precious
Pros:

• It was my grandfather's name (or, you know, his middle name)
• It sounds good

Cons:

• It doesn't go well with Adam, which Adam wants to be the middle name.

Clayton
Meaning: clay settlement
Pros:

• It sounds okay
• We can call him Clay

Cons:

• I can't stop thinking of the kid from the Adam@home comic
• The meaning is lame

Bruce Wayne
Meaning: Thicket, woodland (Bruce), wagon-maker (Wayne)
Pros:

• My nephew will be super-pleased because it was his suggestion
• Batman's cool
• It actually doesn't suck as bad as 98% of the names out there

Cons:

• Oh, come on, it's not as if we'd actually consider it

Something Else
Your suggestions are welcome. Keep it mind it must go with the last name Filipowicz (so Philip is out, as is anything that starts with F.)
