My daughters’ name came to me in a dream while my wife was pregnant. My oldest son, I wanted to name after a baseball player for my favorite team and my wife ended up picking a name that wasn’t that but was close. My youngest son was the same except was my favorite player on my favorite team on OOTP (a baseball sim video game)
Both players’ careers tanked after my sons were born so I’m thankful my wife didn’t let me name them after those players
