I'm a bit late to the party here, but one of my best friends named her son Dexter. He's 1 now and is so adorable. I thought it was a great choice for them- they met in their high school chemistry class, so science has always been a bit of an inside joke with them and they wanted a name for their son that had a nerdy, science-y feeling. Usually when I mention their baby Dexter to other people, most people say it reminds them of a dog's name, which I don't really understand. Sometimes my friend calls her son Dex, which I think is very cool sounding and a great balance to the "nerdy" feeling of the full name.
