Is this name too poncey for a boy?

Well I don't think so - but I have had it said to me (whatever it means). Let me know what you think. I don't want to saddle my boy with an crap awful name. But I really like it.

Julian??? Anyone?

Sorry! Blush

I don't like it, and I especially don't like the shortened Jude (na nah nah na-na-na nah hey Jude, yuk), even worse Jude I can't commit to anyone because I love myself too much Law

Agree with TSC re Francis though

Definitely more camp than poncey.

DP's work colleague recently had a son and named him Julian - just doesn't sound right. On the other hand, I quite like Julius.

I'm afraid I'm not keen. It made me think of the chap Bridget Jones' mum left her dad for- the tv salesman with an orange face!

Sorry. I like Tristan though.

The only Francis I know is a hell raiser bruiser and steak eating machine.
