The name is awful and so is your reasoning.

AbsofCroissant · 29/09/2010 14:32

It does kind of make me think about the "day-o" song, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Bit daft to give the reason then.

comments on the name are welcome. Comments on our reason behind it are not.

O. My. Lord.
You are naming a child, not decorating his father's arm.
Ye gods.

its adapted from taio cruz as we are trying to get a name that will fit in with DPs tattoo! Yes yes i can sense the raised eyebrows now :) he has his four kids names tattooed in a crossword pattern on his arm and wants the new one to fit too. I dont mind as i already have tons of names i like that fit. Its just getting one we agree on... We were going to pronounce it tay-o

How about Teilo (pronounced Tay-lo)? It's Welsh and has a similar feeling to Tayo....

LetThereBeRock · 29/09/2010 14:18

Too cutesy.

5DollarShake · 29/09/2010 14:17

Makes me think of Tayto too, and I'm not even Irish.

sonniboo · 29/09/2010 14:16

I like it pronounced Tie-o.

BunnyLebowski · 29/09/2010 14:11

Makes me think of Tayto

So not good.

Flighttattendant · 29/09/2010 14:09

I keep thinking mayo as well, sorry Grin

Theo is nice.

ElephantsAndMiasmas · 29/09/2010 14:08

isn't Taio Cruz some kind of singer?
"tay - o" or "tie - o"?

BooBooGlass · 29/09/2010 14:06

I knew a Tayo. Named after a racing driver I think, his siblings were Ayrton and Senna Hmm
