The kid's name is Xavier

[muckymucks]

So someone in my family just had a kid and named him Xavier. I told her the kid is going to be called Professor X when he goes to school. Am I wrong? Kids are kids and kids are stupid that way.

[Saarath]

I see your point.

Everyone should just name their children, John or Jane doe.

Well in 10 years, only if x-men is still relevant or their older siblings/family watches them still. But then again I'm still watching all the old x-men movies from 2000 and similar in 2022 so yeah I'm sure there will be someone who connects the dots.

Kind of a dumb name. Or was it a normal name in another country years ago?

Atleast they didn't name their kid "tuna sandwich" I'd love to be joking there...

It seems like an alright name to me. Plus Professor X was one of the better characters in X-Men. More partial to Gambit or Jubilee myself, but that's beside the point. Point being, there are worse names to be had and thus worse ways to be teased by children.

Granted, I doubt his classmates will even know what X-Men is by the time he gets there. You're probably worrying over nothing. But then again, kids will be kids and bullying is like stupidity in that you can't legislate against it nor can you rid the world of it.

Then again, the fact that you're concerned shows that you care at least. So good on you for that.

They're going to start streaming an animated show on Disney+ in 2023, and in 2032 they're probably on the third Marvel X-Men movie with them being bigger than ever. The kid better roll with it and shave his head.

It's not that bad. X AE A-12 would be worse.

Search it on Google

Tbh i don't see the problem with this, if kids still know X-mens they are based though.

[it's love]

I don't think today's kids even know what x-men are anymore anyway, as far as teasable names go this one's pretty low

[Castyles]

Professor X is alright (both the character and name calling). I wouldn't even be mad.

Granted, it's unlikely the kids of 10-15 years from the future would know ♥♥♥♥ about the X-Men. It would still be around, of course, but I don't really think it would be that relevant.

It could be worse.
46 years ago my mother named me Abraham
And I'm still dealing with it

A few years ago there was a couple taken to court because they named their child Adolf Hitler. I don't know how it turned out, but you can imagine that would be a pretty sticky legal dilemma.
