My Rocket is 16 and still ppl are like is that his nickname? Nope. He’s gotten it all his life and now has ID to prove it.

My husband and I independently thought of Rocket, so we figured it was a go. I LOVE the name, but beware! Kids live up to their names, and my son is everything you would think a “Rocket” would be.

  YES! I have a 5 1/2 year old boy named Rocket. He’s an extremely fast runner with a solar system obsession.
  
  Obviously me and you have the same great taste in names. 🙂
