"That looks pretty good...coming out of the back of his neck there." - Strongbad

I've been told, in no uncertain terms, that the name "Trogdor" cannot be used as the baby's name...in neither the first nor middle positions. Still, from the sonogram the baby is just a few consummate Vs away from the mighty dragon. Oh, yeah - check out baby's majesty.
And, speaking of mighty dragons, the sonograms this week also showed another beefy appendage. (It's a boy!) I won't post it, though, as that seems totally inappropriate.
So what would an awesome name for a baby boy be? Help me out, here.

Pohl, this is so exciting!
I'm all for Trogdor, but since that's clearly been vetoed... I dunno. I think I'll still call the little guy Trogdor no matter what you name him.
I've got a long list that should be avoided..
Perhaps you should give your child the same fun that was bestowed upon you in terms of spelling and phonetics, Pohl.
Jyhm, or Jahk, or Jayk..

It's an entirely different name from "Trogdor" and worthy of serious consideration.
