All very well, but you can't account for a name later being used in popular culture. I named my eldest daughter Nicole but the Renault Clio ads hit the TV screens about the time she started school. To this day, she won't answer when called Nicole and insists on being called Nicki.

Does her father answer to "Papa"?

Nah! He's generally known as 'that bastard'. He pissed off when she was 2.

A friend of mine is called Jonathan, so everyone calls him Jon. His mum hates it and insists that everyone calls him by his full name (which I don't do of course). His old man is called Peter and everyone calls him Pete. His mum hates that too. However, she's called Patricia, but insists on being called Pat. It's weird how people work sometimes.

Ha my grandparents are called Pat and Peter. Weird. #makesyouthink

Wonder if names like Doris, Pat, Pearl, Trevor, Irvine etc will ever make a comeback?

Houston. Just so when they fuck up I can look at them all sternly and say, "Houston, we have a problem".

Muggins.

mnb089mnb · Nov 27, 2015

My daughter has two middle names (named after her grandmothers).
It was my job to register the name at the registry office.
All sounds straightforward doesn't it?

However. Muggins here went and spelt his mother-in law's name wrong on the certificate didn't he?

Pagnell · Nov 27, 2015

I don't know, did he?

I quite like the name Francesca for a girl, Connor for a boy.

If you're naming it Conor, at least spell it correctly.

. I'm not sure for a girl, I like Florence and Willow but my other half dislikes them both, she likes Evangeline.

Sounds like a medication for period pains.

tood · Nov 29, 2015

Mario for a lad and Maria for a Girl.

But that's ridiculous. If it is a soft sounding vowel before the N it should be a double. Do you pronounce your name Co-Nor or Con-Er

It's an Irish name though, so rules about how things should be pronounced in English don't really apply.

Ebeneezer Goode · Dec 1, 2015

thats a bit irish

Yeah but we are in England, so for an English person, Connor would be the correct spelling.

Pliny Harris · Dec 1, 2015

Franklin or Philip for a boy.

Rosa for a lass.

Veggie is correct.

My Irish mother chose it. Fuck the English and their shit double 'n'. It's wrong.

My daughter and her partner are considering Sky for my granddaughter due in February. I'm not keen.
