Monroe (girl) and Moroccan Scott (boy)

Monroe's not bad, but poor boy having two nationalities for a name! Hmm

Haha I definitely agree Monroe just seems good in comparison.

MrsChanandlerBong - that was my thought too, it also makes the (admittedly quite cute) nickname Rocco work better. Crazy!

Interesting choice. Moroccan shortened to Morrie is quite cute though. Monroe, not sure that sounds very feminine...

Utterly bizarre. Both.

Maybe she will use Scott for everyday....or Rocco........or Morrie
I can see Monnie and Morrie :)

Morrocan

Moroccan is so bad it makes Monroe seem okay.

MsChanandlerBong · 05/05/2011 13:25

And Moroccan sounds like it is grammatically incorrect. Surely Morocco would have been bonkers enough, without making it the nationality rather than the place?!

Shes fecking bonkers though isnt she, mad as a mad thing.

I think Monroe got off slightly better than Moroccan did, but there's not much in it, to be honest. They're both fairly rubbish names.

mandoo · 05/05/2011 13:15

what?!!!!

Why do these bloody women do it to their children. Both awful names.

KikkiK · 05/05/2011 13:10

I think they're both a bit weird, especially Moroccan.

And I feel sorry for little Monroe having only one strange name when her brother has one weird one and one normal one two. Apparently, Mariah doesn't have a middle name so her daughter's not getting one either. Hmm

Moroccan Scott sounds like some sort of workplace nickname (to distinguish between the various Scotts by highlighting his nationality or the fact he once threw up in a Moroccan restaurant or some such...
