Similar to picking my daughters name i choose what comes to me when im not racking my brain for a name. I had heard of no other Gatlins so originality is always a plus as well. Gatlin means “wondering man” i was not to fond of that. I picture him stumbling around lost. Otherwise is seems strong, independent sounding.

I love the name. We named our 4th son ,Gatlin Wayne, in 2013. It sometimes needs repeated or spelled for others but he loves his name also.
