Wilbert

[pygmy]

I've just discovered the name Wilbert and I think I love it. What do you think?

[BedHog]

Isn't it slang for being a bit stupid?

[Onesleeptillwembley]

I don't have words strong enough for how bad it is. It even makes Klay look er well not good exactly, but less bad.

[GoodbyePorkPie]

pygmy, no! I already told you on your other thread to go with Cosmo!

[poppydaisy]

Both parts of the name aren't great - Wil/Willy or Bert!

Cosmo is SO much nicer and cooler!

[MadBusLady]

No. Sounds like a goldfish. I think Albert is lovely though so maybe I am not very consistent on this.

[MadBusLady]

Also makes me think of Dilbert, but that probably won't be a thing for the generation born now. Although Dilbert is kind of timeless so you can't rely on that...

[SilverOldie]

Wilbert is a silly name - go with Cosmo, it's fab.

[pygmy]

Ok, point taken!

[TheRealFellatio]

It sounds very wet.

[kelda]

Wilbur is better.

[SleepyCatOnTheMat]

I second Wilbur - love that name. Arthur has made a comeback so why not Wilbur?

[JojoMags]

Haha. I have a Wilfrid and a Robert, but even to someone with form like mine Wilbert is dreadful!

[Oriunda]

Still think Cosmo better (well I would, wouldn't I, having one myself!) but I do like Wilbur (NOT Wilbert which I have never heard of). There is one in my son's nursery and he is gorgeous.

[usualsuspect]

Its horrible.

[olivertheoctopus]

Nope. Wilbur is very very very cool (on list but DH is having none of it plus BIL is Will). Wilfred also equally as cool.

[kelda]

Yes Wilbur and Wilfred are both great, but Wilbert just doesn't work so well.

[OrlaKiely]

I have got a wilberforce and I call him this.

[poppydaisy]

I don't like Wilbur, Wilfred, William or Wilbert - it's the Wil part that is too close to Willy .
