Nothing wrong (or strange) with Fergus.
However, the others...
Then again, look at some other names being used these days - Bylinda, Jaidyn, Jade, Brady...Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

Names do matter . No wonder Rupert Butheras and Heath Scotland left Collingwood . Definitely not Cwood names more like Carlton , Hawthorn or Melbourne.
Actually they really should be playing Rubgy UnionComment

Jaidyn( and all the other ways it can be spelt) is by far the most annoying name out. That is a name which I think does'nt require much of a brain to think of when naming a baby. Whats worse is that it's popping up with monotenous regularity these days.Originally posted by NMWBloods

Re: What's in a name!
Surely you're used to Kane by now with established players like Johnson, Cornes, Munro and maybe others I've forgotten...Originally posted by Troy G
Kane
Some other unusual first names in this year's draft: Raphael, Llane, Jed.
Perhaps Collingwood had to keep under a quota of strange names since they're drafting Heath and Brayden Shaw under father/son.Originally posted by aflconvert

'taint nothin' wrong with Jed.Comment

Kane isn't a newie, he was one of the sons of Adam and Eve, so in theory it should be the 3rd oldest name if you believe in all that, that is
Here's my heart and you can break it
I need some release, release, release
We need

Kepler's an interesting one, especially considering he was born on the day Kepler Wessels quit the Australian Test cricket team. Maybe they had to think of a name in a hurry and it was in the news.

Love your little Swan man JF!He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)Comment

In the background story of Kepler that was put to Keplers farther and on 6pr and yes that was the exact reason for the name as his farther was/is a massive fan of Wessels.Originally posted by Norris Lurker
