Montgomery or Kenneth????

[littleoysterslittleoysters]

Kenneth was my Granddad's name and I'm suddenly loving it!

[SuperBeagle]

Kenneth risks being shortened to Ken... That's the only thing I don't like about it.

I do prefer Kenneth to Montgomery though. I don't like Monty/Montgomery.

[VocalDuck]

I much prefer Montgomery although I know three little boys called it (nn Monty) so be prepared for th possibility that he won't be the only one at school with the name.

[reuset]

Hmmm, frying pan or fire? Sorry

Montgomery is very grand sounding, better if you're actually the 12th Earl of Shrewsbury or similar . Monty is ok, so I'd opt for that one if forced to make a choice.

[SaltySalt]

Kenny or Monty

[BlahBlahBlahEtc]

Monty over ken ...

[NarkyMcDinkyChops]

Neither. Your hormones have addled your mind

[buttercup54321]

Kenneth is a great name, I love seeing these classic names coming back. Montgomery is more unusual and reminds of me of Simpsons, if your surnames is Burns ....

[Ohyesiam]

I'm sorry, but they are dreadful. Would it be like an ironic hipster thing?

[NameChange30]

Neither, sorry!
Anything else on your list?

[Sophronia]

Kenneth. Kenny would actually be quite cute on a little boy.

[MommaGee]

Op its just the hormones. For theove of all that is good please pick Monty not Kenny

[kua]

Kenneth

[raviolidreaming]

Kenneth - first king of Scotland!

[FriendofBill]

Kenny is a lovely NN.
Kenneth means handsome iirc.
I like it.

Montgomery not so much.

[GinIsIn]

I'm going to add another vote for neither and waiting for your hormones to settle - sorry!

[Jooni]

Not Kenneth! Sorry, I don't think it's time yet. Maybe Ken/Kenny on its own at a push.

Monty is much nicer IMO. Montgomery is a bit much but still better than Kenneth.

Did your granddad have a middle name?

[kittybiscuits]

Please spare a thought for the poor child. Both are awful.

[TooExtraImmatureCheddar]

Neither!

[Abetes]

Please don't. You'll live to regret it. My DH's middle name is Kenneth after his father and he hates it. I did ask if he wanted to continue the family tradition and give it as a middle name to our ds but he was adamant that it should be a tradition which died with him.

[Ordinarily]

Montgomery. I prefer the nickname Monty to Ken.

[SnowWhite33]

Neither
Maybe as a 2nd name to honor your family

But Ken is really the worst nn incould think of

[notangelinajolie]

Montgomery - horrible, pompous and pretentious. Please don't give you baby that name urggggh!

Kenneth - wouldn't have chosen it myself but it does have a kind if something about it and I understand why it appeals. Definitely go for it.

[Cherryskypie]

Duncan

[Oysterbabe]

They are both awful but Kenneth is the worst. Sorry.
