I've thought the same thing too, about Maya being a fantastic name for a girl, though I always sorta wondered what my future/potential daughter would think when she found out she was named after software.... :p

Better than calling her Houdini or Softimage...lol

Though if you wanted to be a bit "Hollywood", Modo might work!

sweet Mike!

i cracked up laughing at your suggestion dango and gster! halarious! maya and max, and if you do have a third child it can be named xsi :p

friend: "my parents gave me my great grandfather's name"
mike's child: "my parents named me after software"

your child can take pride in the fact that its parents are more original than other parents if you named it after software




that's a "Ch" pronounced as a "K"

Computer skills I should have:
Objective C, C#, Java, MEL. Python, C++, XML, JavaScript, XSLT, HTML, SQL, CSS, FXScript, Clips, SOAR, ActionScript, OpenGL, DirectX
Maya, XSI, Photoshop, AfterEffects, Motion, Illustrator, Flash, Swift3D

I'm pretty sure my wife would object to naming our child after a piece of computer software! Thanks for the suggestions though. user added image

You know Mike, that would actually be the perfect family unit - a boy named Max, a girl named Maya, and dog named Modo!

Congratulation!
