I agree about SophoclesI wouldn't want to go through life with that name. Pretentious beyond belief.

are you familiar with The Flying Conchords?They are so goofy and offbeat that the name Sophocles does not come off as trying too hard at all. If it was the son of a pair of professors, I would agree... but with these guys it is just hilarious and awesome. :)I highly recommend "Alby the Racist Dragon" for your YouTube viewing pleasure; it remains my favourite Conchord ditty. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-jVAHAuiS4

do you mean Flight of the Concords?!From New Zealand? lol, if that's them, they're lol!!Maybe you're right, but i don't know, this is a child's name, it's not something i would think lightly about, since it's a name the kid will have to live with. Imagine if he grew up to be a professor himself! I just don't think they thought it through, it may be funny right now but, meh, it's their child i guess!

yes I did mean themand I am not sure what my brain did that it came up with "The Flying Conchords" Mmm, delicious flying grapes. Also makes them sound like a fantastic trapeze family! Wheee.

His wife has a Greek last name, so I guess it's a family name. And Greek are big on honoring names.
