You should name your son Djephri.

There's an acceptable window of weirdness. If your last name is always going to be misspelled (like mine) or mispronounced, your first name should be easy and conventional. But if your last name is Smith, then your first name should be somewhat weirder / less common than John.

I knew a Geoffrey---I used to piss him off and call him Gee-Off....good times...

It’s ok Geoff it’s ok

I read somewhere that, “a name a man is given is a blow from which he never recovers.” My name is Doug and that statement is true.

I like the idea of making name-changing more the norm. Of my closest friends, about half of us have changed our names at least once (some legally, some not). Why assume the name your parents chose, before they even knew you, was a good choice?
