Damn that was Rude!!!
I can add the moves, I was just wondering about the stucture...
Gwydion
Simple question, simple answer. I don't believe that there is a name for that particular opening..
Zerrogi
Regretfully, some people on the interwebz are.
by the by, I don't know this opening.
TheGrobe
According to the game explorer (http://www.chess.com/explorer/) the first two moves are the Dutch Defense to the Queen's Pawn Opening after which you're out of book which is not surprising given the slow pace of development and the giant hole Black has created on e5.
Ok, Thank you for your respectable answers for an amatuer . I just enjoyed the looks of it with the bishop line especially after a queenside castle.

Eww.

That is not a good opening.

Yes it is Dutch Defense, an irregular form of Stonewall Variation. 2. b2 is rather out of place
Ah, I completely forgot about the Stonewall. I even know a guy who plays it, lol.

By the way, you can win a pawn with 7 Nxc7+.
Escapest_Pawn
Nothing wrong with an out of book experiment, but I see white as having way too many pawn moves (and as has been suggested) he should have challenged e5 with the natural Nf3. Your 6 Nb5 should have been kicked back with tempo by 6....a3 but considering he played 6...Ba3 he left you with 7 Nxc7+ QxNc7 8 BxBa6 leaving you a pawn up and with the better pawn structure, ablity to check or pin his knight with Bb5 etc.
As it is, your 9f3 blocks your Nf3 e5 challenge and black may well play Qh4+ just to further expose your king.
My point is, I never memorize openings as such, but the concepts, like good straight forward development, should be adhered to.
I hope you take this unrequested advice as an attempt to be helpful as I support your response to rudeness.
