What do you think of Endellion?

[Thewonderyears]

looking for something unusual and elegant for DD3

No Cornish heritage here, but I love the look and sound of Endellion.

What says the Mumsnet jury? (ps obv I know, but don't care about, about the Cameron usage...)

[PelvicFloorClenchReminder]

Not so keen, personally. Makes me think of cheese

[awbless]

I like it.

[CanIHaveAPetGiraffePlease]

No.

[tak1ngchances]

Way too fancy

[Felicitywascold]

Doesn't sound in the slightest bit elegant to me. Sorry.

[JudeFawley]

I like it, but can't imagine a child with the name as it seems too clunky.

[poocatcherchampion]

Dandelion?

[Pochemuchka]

Another one who thought 'dandelion' or 'medallion'

[LittleBairn]

Sounds like some form of homeopathic remedy.

[RightUpMyRue]

Sounds like a herb which grows in the hedgerow that wankers people like Hugh FW get excited about.

Not keen.

[Mintyy]

For a boy or girl?

What is it?

What is the Cameron usage?

As a name I dislike it, sorry.

[IceAndSliceOfBrainsPlease]

Not keen, sorry. What would they be called for short? Endy? Lion?

[noblegiraffe]

Sounds like a village in a fantasy novel rather than a person. Like 'The hobbits passed through Rivendell, Rohan and Endellion in their quest for the Ring'.

[exoticfruits]

I thought 'dandelion'. I wouldn't call it elegant especially as it is bound to be shortened. Delli?

[Beamur]

I wasn't sure if it was a boy or girls name.
It would be a bit too strange and unusual for my taste - not sure how you say it either.

[RibenaFiend]

Does it work with your other DC's names? It's one of those names that if I saw it on a register I'd get stressed about how to pronounce it and then privately think "poor kid"

It really does sound like an obscure wild herb to me I'm afraid OP

[StrawWars]

I prefer Endymion, if that's the sort of thing you like.

[FeckOffWithYourXmasBollocks]

It sounds like a disease!
I've always liked Clowance personally.

[FeckOffWithYourXmasBollocks]

Or Loveday.

[Thewonderyears]

It's a village in Cornwall, with a St in front of it. From wiki stuff it seems to mean fiery soul, but I don't know whether that's Cornish or something else.

Afaik, you would pronounce it en-DEL-ee-on

[Viviennemary]

It's beyond dire. One of the worst I've heard on here. Sorry.

[NigellasGuest]

shocking!

[Pourquoimoi]

Yes another dandelion thought here.

Your poor child would be forever explaining it to people, both spelling and pronunciation. I wouldn't do it to the poor thing.

[squoosh]

I thought you must be a Cameron admirer.

[Startail]

I'm really sory at first my sleepy dyslexic brain read that as Dandelion.

Now if it's Cornish villages your after Praze-An-Beeble is a good name.
