Not with those names I wouldn't imagine. If I ever have children I'd like to name them something that isn't common but isn't strange either. Those names seem to fit the bill so they sound good to me.
Am I dooming my future children?

if I ever get a kid I will name him/her Dovakhin.
I will train him/her from early on in the use of various medieval weapons on his/her 18th birthday tell him/her to kill a dragon if he/she returns I will tell him/her his/hers true name: DRAGON BORN!!!! ( it sure beats crap like "Destiny").
on a serious note I would give my kid a regular name maybe a small reference to something I like, like if I where to have a daughter and son calling them Rei and Shinji from NGE.

If I have a son, his name is going to be Roy David Stamm, named after my granduncle who fought and died for Canada in Europe during World War II. (There's a lot more backstory than that, but yeah)
As for your children, I see nothing wrong with those names. They're unique but without being over-the-top.

While reading this I was reminded of a song I heard in which the singer's father named him "Sue" just before abandoning the family. After spending a childhood being ridiculed for his name, he set out to find his father and beat the piss out of him (which is exactly what happens). However, when the singer's dad is finished coughing out his own teeth, he calmly explains that giving his son the name "Sue" would force him to defend himself and thus make him a stronger person for it. Unfortunately the singer doesn't think the experience was all that fulfilling and announced that if he had a son, he would name him anything but "Sue."
I guess if I had to give any advice, it would be this: make sure you give your children names at least somewhat specific to gender.
(Unless you want your kids using you as a punching bag when they become adults)

The thing is, aside from "teaseable" names, you have to consider whether you're giving your child a name they'll be forced to spell for the rest of their life. This doesn't seem so bad, but I have a name that's not even that unusual, just slightly antiquated, and yet my doctor can't spell it right, and my taxes are all made out to "Andres" (not even close to my actual name). Don't get me wrong, I love my name. It's fairly unique, and it fits me well, but just consider whether or not you're setting your kids up for hardships. The names you've picked seem nice, and if you think the value you put into them outweighs the drawbacks, then go for it. My main beef is with people who name their kid something like Connor but spell it, Khonner. Your kid will have an entire lifetime of spelling out their name to people for no good reason.
Really? I would think people would make fun of "Big Cat" a lot...i mean cat rhymes with a lot of stuff!Big Cat said:

Ah yes, that is how his surname was spelled wasn't it? Oh well, I guess it's nice to pay tribute to the dead, however unintentional and indirect.thiosk said:
Mays? Sounds like maze.
There are definitely certain names I really like, but I'm not going to give my kids a name which will allow them to be bullied.

So long as you don't name your daughter Moon Unit or your son Dweezel, you should be fine.

Hughes was awesome indeed. I think those are pretty cool names with no major teasing triggers. My son's name is Malcolm Flynn Hancock. I know he'll catch crap for our last name, since I have, but I think he's got a nice unique name that people should be able to figure out. However, we've already had people spell it Malcom for some reason. I have never seen that spelling in my life.Foxblade618 said:

i wonder if my considering naming my future daughter pandora will make her not like me. but just imagine the jokes i can make with her future husband about thrusting hope back into pandoras box
Me and my wife agreed on "Tor Exdee Blain" for our son's name.
Ive always thought that 'Tor" was an amazing name. Nice and strong.
And "Exdee" come from when we text each other. We use the "xD" face alot. "X" "D", Exdee.
Sure, were horrible people for deciding on it. But oh well.
