Any suggestions? 😀

Derek. I think that’s a boy’s name. Do I win something?

yeah, actually you do

John.

works for me 😉

Wayne for a boy, Waynetta for a girl.

depends on the surname, surely? As the owner of a name that was popular briefly in the late 60’s, I’d say nothing fashionable.

Having said that, we have an Albert and a Wilfred in the extended family, and that fits a short surname very well.

If all else fails, Thomas.

The missus is giving me an evasive “er”

my son’s called Cadel…

unusual but not wacky sounding.

Mercedes, so you can brag you own a Mercedes,

Jonah – worked for my first

Llewelyn?

Not joking…………….. Ernest, it’s back , you heard it here first!

Barabbas

or Methuselah?

Bit of an oldie but a goodie.

Always liked Septimus

I think I’ll call my next born that

Jedward?

Depends on surname indeed. We two Neil McNeil’s at work. Surely the parents would have thought that one through.

I liked Aaron, cos it had 2 ‘a’s. But we ended up calling our boy Lydon. It works.

My son is called Barnaby. He seems to like it, although he’s only four months old so I can’t be sure.

Zacharias, I actually quite like that, seems to have a good strong sound to it.
Sebastian too.

iBoy

Calel, son of durel has a nice ring to it, or anakin, no one will mess with the dark lord in the playground

+1 foe iBoy

or

Cornelius

thats a good name

Whatever your middle name is (that worked for our first one*) or maybe what your father’s name is.

* it has the added advantage of being a simple, ordinary, traditional name, which most people of parental/STW forumite age would think of as being not at all unusual, but hasn’t been in the top 100 names for the last 5 years or so (headmaster of his new school reckons he’s never had a pupil with that name before) – any guesses?

any guesses?

Is it Adolf ?

Is it Adolf ?

😆

It’s not Benito, Francisco or Joseph either (or Ernesto).

It is not Osama is it?

So, AMV, have you just had a baby then?

Jeronimo is a good one.

I wanted to call our son Merlin. Before the popular wizarding tv programme was on.

I have 2 boys…..

Callum & Rory

I also like Fraser or Hamish .

How about Judas? My mate chose that as his Confirmation name. His brother chose El Saeed.

Personally, I like Juan Manuel Fangio Allmountainventure.

An old friend of mine called his son Jasper, after his uncle Jasper who, apparently, was a horse thief.

OOOO names are VERY personal, some suggested above are hideous! So I’m not going to suggest any, as it has to be something your happy with not someone else! Althouhg as mentioned you do have to consider your surname, I went to school with a “christopher Greenshields” did his parents not realise there aren’t enough spaces on official paperwork to write that down 😉 and that is without his middle name!!!

Marin?
Cannondale?
Saracen?

Officialdom failure is hardly the fault of his parents.

My old P.E teacher was called Mary Christina Moss, AKA: Mary Chris Moss. I think she was a boy as she had a beard, you could steal that idea?

Isambard has a certain industrial charm about it…..

I’ve got a niche one for you if you’re interested..

We called our lad Farley.. so there couldn’t be any arguments about who’s rusks they are..

It also means – ‘of the meadow’ in old english apparently..

And more importantly it’s also the name of

this guy one of the pioneers of chicago house music..

We’re calling our next kid ‘password’ so it’s easier to remember for our online banking, forum log-ins etc..
