[hulabaloo]

Surname

[LifeIsBetterInFlipFlops]

Nay

[MorgauseIsNotBlinking]

Nay - my immediate response was "Tweed".

[cloggal]

I'm Scottish but I genuinely think there are far nicer Scottish names if that's what you're after. Not bad, but not great.

[chimchar]

my first response was Rolf.

not keen, sorry.

[HyvaPaiva]

It's a surname, it's a product (tweed), it sounds like London slang for arse, it's not a pleasant 'sound' as a name. I'm Scottish and like cloggal think there are plenty of beautiful Scottish names. To me, this really, really isn't one of them.

[UriGeller]

Nay. Nay. And thrice nay.

[LemonBreeland]

I like it I know two boys called Harris.

[Bowlersarm]

Nay.

[girliefriend]

I like it, prefer Harry though.

[MonkeysInTheFog]

Not since Rolf ruined it.

[Weegiemum]

I agree that it's fine, but that there are nicer Scottish names, including place-type names, than Harris.

If you use it though you could take him to visit the Isle of Harris which is gorgeous - I know because I lived there for 10 years!!

[Frontdoorstep]

I'm Scottish and agree that there are nicer Scottish names. I'm afraid I reall don't like Harris for a name.

[Route666]

Thanks for opinions I love it but dh isn't convinced, We are Scottish forgot to put that, didn't even connect it with Rolf Harris that is off putting.

[pigsinmud]

Hmm not keen.

[squoosh]

Not for me.

Island names are popular at the moment but I'm not a fan of this one.

[Theonlyoneiknow]

I love it however it is now racing up the charts in popularity in Scotland. I know 3 !

[MamaLazarou]

Rhyming slang for bum.

[Beachballfamily]

I like it. It's a quite popular Muslim name (spelt with one r) as well as the Scottish connection.

[TheNunsOfGavarone]

Tweed.
