Personal experiences with the name Anakin: | Edit

I rarely run into people who do not like the name. I have had a lot of people tell me that it is a pretty sounding name, even if it had not come from Star Wars. I almost always hear children ask their parents why they didnt name them after a character. I find that funny.
