I'm going to call my kid the "Minister of Silly Walks" even though we're US citizens.

My last name is a first name (Peter) so I thought it would be fun to name my son with last names. My favorite track stars are Ashton Eaton and Tyson Gay so I went with: Eaton Gay Peter.
This made me grin...😄
I'm disappointed there's no mention of the middle name "MF" yet. I'm definitely trying to include it behind my wife's back

You are going to call your own child a name indicating that he has to satisfy your wife because you cannot?

Have any of you named your kids after famous runners? What names did you choose? I really like the names Tirunesh and Meseret and have thought about those names but would wait until they are officially retired.
Guy I met named his kid "Sebastian" so the kid's name is Sebastian Cole.
Someone I worked with had a kid named Jim Ryan and he was not named after Jim Ryun.
My son was born within a minute of Haile running the first sub 13 indoors back in '97..... so his MIDDLE name is Haile.
I named my right testicle Sir Roger Banister. The left? I call it The Octogon.
Named our first son after Kip Keino; a great runner; an even better human being.
too soon lol
I named my kid DEVASTATED. We call him Dev.
An old running friend named his kids Greta and Brendan.
I named my black Lab "Rono" and he is an excellent runner.
Next dog may be Haile
If we get a yellow Lab bitch, I may name it Emma.
I'm totally gonna name my kid Rossi.
The middle name will be Benjamin, and the last name starts with a Q, so he can be Rossi BQ.
I got the idea for my daughter's name from my all-time running shoe, the Nike Air Mariah. We left the Nike and Air off and just call her Mariah. When she was around 8 some guests in our home asked her if she was named after Mariah Carey. Mariah said "No, I was named after a shoe!"
My last name is Johnson and I wanted to keep the name of a Canadian hero going so I named my son Ben.

Noooooooo this is to much
Does Quenton Cassidy count as a famous runner? If he does, then I named my kid after a famous runner. First name only. I even looked up the spelling in the book to make sure I got it right.
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
