So lately many of my friends have announced that they are expecting a baby soon. Well if they can’t come up with good name, you can’t go wrong with one of the wonderful names from the Sci-Fi Baby Names book by Robert Schnakenberg.
Babies are the courageous explorers of brave new worlds so why not name them after the most memorable characters in science fiction? Sci-Fi Baby Names compiles more than 500 distinctive names from movies, books, and television shows into a handy illustrated reference. Choose “James” to honor the captain of the starship Enterprise. Choose “Leia” (or “Leah”) to honor the sister of Luke Skywalker. Choose “Neo” to salute the ultra-cool messiah from The Matrix. Hardcore fans can go even further with exotic names like “Barbarella,” “Beldar,” and “Tron” (just don’t send us the therapy bills).
Arranged by category for quick reference with chapters such as Power Names, Feminine Names, and Intellectual Names Sci-Fi Baby Names is a terrific gift for expecting parents and a wonderful roll call of our favorite science-fiction characters
UPDATE: Veronica Belmont make an excellent point that this book would be great for naming pets as well.

Some of those are truly unique. I can’t believe that some people have actually named their son Neo: http://www.babynamemap.com/boys/Neo
