I doubt they'll have much more trouble than other kids. Names are names, and most people accept that you just get whatever name you get and can't do much about it. All the girls named Reagan seem to be doing just fine.

I read an analysis once of how happy people were with their names. The trend was that the more unusual the name was, the less happy the owner was with it, up until you got to the very popular names, where happiness declined again - but it still wasn't a huge deal. A reasonable assumption is that most people feel quite neutrally about their names until it causes them some inconvenience - people mispronouncing it, people misspelling it, or being confused with other people with the same name.

The only deviation from this trend was that people who were named after admirable family members tended to be actively happy about their names.

Lesson being - when naming your kid, consider naming them after your great uncle who died heroically in the war. Failing that, just get a list of the top 100 baby names, discard the top 10, discard any duplicates with minor spelling deviations, and then just pick one at random.

I mean... I get it. But in a country where mass shootings are the norm, calling your son gunner is... a bit out of touch?

Baylor on the other hand is just plain horrible.

My half-brother is named Ranger. 🙄

Yes! Absolutely yes! Gunner is a horrible name, as is Baylor. If you think this is political, that's your problem. It's not my fault if the most horrible names are mostly red.
