My husband and I are expecting our third child--If its a boy what do you think of the name Speed with possibly middle name McCartney?

Hi!
I think McCartney is great. But, Speed...well that goes right up there with Hash, Smack or Juice!! lol... Just giving you a hard time.

McCartney could be nice for a first name, maybe. If you like the one-syllable trend you could call him Mac.

Thanks-at the rate of popularity of Speed-McCartney will probably get moved to a first name.

I actually really like it! I think it is different, and maybe if he doesn't want to go by that all his life, he can go by his middle name...

I agree with you, that Speed and Chase are similar in style, which is why I'm not a fan of Chase either... just a different naming style, that's all...but you did ask the board if we liked the name, so- my response is simply that it's not really my style...
Best wishes,

NMS at all.

Speed McCartney sounds a lot like Lightning McQueen, the name of the race car character in the Disney Cars movie.
