I wanted this as our boy middle name. I'm a Trekkie.. We had three girls (and one has a name of a minor character from one of the movies).
I like you.

Livingston?
I assume that's a boy.
Also the pp who mentioned Carrington.
Both of those names end in "-ton" which means town.
What are the nicknames for this? Liv? Carr?
I totally know a female Livingston. Goes by Livie. She's 7.

Huh? someone who loves english kid lit. Not what I think of as pretentious esp since both characters are of modest background.
Yes, I'm tickled by the idea that it's pretentious to name a child after a small bear in a duffel coat, named after a London train station, who regularly covers himself with jam.
I don't think paddington is pretentious, but I do think its a bit silly. Go bigger -- Heathrow or Schipol.
OMG Heathrow would be the BEST! Please please let's start a trend of international airport babynames. That would be a new front in tweeness/pretentiousness.
I can see an O'Hare, a Heathrow, Hartsfield, and .... wait for it ... IDLEWILD. I will pay $1000 to anyone who names their child Idlewild. It is just so PERFECT.
Idle-wild = kid guaranteed to have ADHD

If they pronounced it Stin-gin, they were mispronouncing it. It's Sin-jin.
Also, are you sure it wasn't Phyllida?
I remember having too much "sin gin." It wasn't pretty.
