Ask HN: Need help with boy's names that are from technology
4 points by yuwu9145 2386 days ago
Hi,

I am writing to just collect some ideas around some boy's names that come from technology.

I have got some beautiful names for girls:

Ivy - An Angular rendering pipeline

Jasmine - A frontend testing framework

But I have not got any ideas for boys. I truely do not want to name my boy as "Javascript", "Angular" or "React".

So please leave a comment if you have a cool name for boys?

Thanks!

Guns are technology, so Uzi?

Though if you find these examples a bit antiquated, you could always name your boy after whatever you named your first computer:

Thank you very much. I like Harvey and will put it into our option list :)
Good luck to you and your child(ren)!
none of these will exist as your boy gets older, you better think twice about this
Good reminder, thanks!
