I love everything about video games. So much so that my gamer presence spills into the real world. I haven't gone this far, but if you really wanted to take it to the next level, you could name a child after your favorite game. But some baby names for gamers are probably not a good idea. Like naming your baby Master Chief or Crash Bandicoot. Maybe don't do that. Let's look at some other gaming inspired baby names.
If you're looking for that Miami, Florida flair and you want to stay ahead of the curve, the Grand Theft Auto 6 protagonist name is Lucia. But since they keep pushing back the release date, your baby might be in high school before Rockstar releases it.
I'm a huge fan of Fallout 4, so the names Nate and Nora are very familiar to me. OnlineGames.io, has come up with five other awesome gaming-inspired baby names for gamers for both boys and girls.
