Every time they meet someone, they'd suffer hearing another Princess Bride quotation. It might put the poor child off the movie altogether, which would be horrible.
beachbear Says:
This is actually a great name...but it reminds me of wendigo, which is creepy.
eveyalecia Says:
It's a Spanish name though, so a Spanish accent should be more indicative of correct pronunciation.
Shaybaby1 Says:
I assumed it was his Spanish accent that made it sound like ih-NEE-go, since Fezzik pronounced it IH-ni-go.

It's likely that I will! :)

You've got to see the movie! It's a classic!
Impwood Says:
I prefer this to Ignatius, which just feels crooked to me.
EW314 Says:
Quite a nice name, but feels very aristocratic. Not necessarily a bad thing, but potentially feels a little overblown unless your surname happens to be Hesslethwycke-Smythe. I feel the same way about names like Peregrine, Percival, Montague and Hugo.
sorciereblanche Says:
never seen the Princess Bride. I think of the charming dancer from Fire Emblem
Theodora_Phoenix Says:
Never watched the movie, but I bet most people would say the same thing if I brought this name up!
Zelliew Says:
I prefer Indigo
eveyalecia Says:
A-ha, I looked it up, and the non-Anglicized version is Iñigo, so it's not quite NEE but there's a "y" sound after the N.
eveyalecia Says:
NB says this is pronounced IN-ih-go, but in the movie it's more like ih-NEE-go, which sounds more correct to my ear.

Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
mabespark Says:
I understand the connection to the Princess Bride, but this could be confusing. It's a little too similar to Indigo for me.
raevynstar Says:
Just saw the film today--AMAZING, and so is the name! I'd add this to my list for sure if I didn't already have Indigo on it!
It is spelled wrong. It's not Inigo but Iñigo. Changes the sound to "gn" like in lasagna.
