First name? I hope not. Be prepared to pay a lot for counseling if it goes through. Find another suitable name, please.

No. I'm pasting my response to a similar question, which I've edited slightly for your case:
You need think ahead to how your child will deal with his or her name in the business world. Many studies have been done to indicate how certain names affect the earning capacity of those who have either 1) ethnically stereotyped names ("La Fawnda" in Napoleon Dynamite or "Shaniqua" being two examples) or 2) unusual or odd names or those which are guilty of word play or harken to a particular media thing (Rusty Pipes, Frenchy Toste, Flowery Meadows, Voldemort Potter, etc).
For a short chapter on this subject, see "Freakonomics" or other writings. It's been demonstrated over and over again that people have a natural tendency to discriminate in the marketplace and hiring fields when presented with two likewise qualified candidates, one named Shaniqua and one named Elizabeth. Elizabeths gets the job the majority of the time.
Yes, it's racist. Yes, it's unfair. But it's real and all parents need to consider it. A beautifully cultural name which has long tradition within a culture is not the same as a name which is pulled from a popular novel or miniseries.
So, as to your question, is the name going to be instantly stereotyped with an ethnic or entertainment or media related name which may prove to be a hindrance later on? Will your child spend a life time in the business world saying "Einstein -- my parents were having a laugh."
I think all parents owe their children the dignity of a name which can easily be turned in an affectionate nickname as a child, but later be used in a business or learned environment. Examples would include "Lizzie" as a child and "Elizabeth" as an adult. "Becky" as a child and "Rebecca" as an adult. But if you start with a name like "Trinket" or "Butterfly" (those are real names of people) or "Star" as a child, she has no place to go with that name later on -- except maybe on The View.
There is nothing wrong at all with the name Einstein per se, but it will possibly be imposing a burden upon your child to defend it in the future, or be called upon to defend his or her intellect if he doesn't "measure up" to his namesake -- who will of course be an almost impossible act to follow.

I'd feel bad for the kid, to be totally honest. But of course, you can name your child whatever you please.

Well einstein is a second name not a first one and it means first stone in german doesn't it?
2007-12-06 7:55 pm
As a middle name only. Not as a first name. How about Éanna (ane (as in lane) a) or Enda
