My name is on there but dh and the 3ds aren't.

Secondme · 08/05/2013 16:46

1/4 but he has a really common name. 2 have abbreviations that we never use and other one not at all, but not a chance.

monica77798 · 08/05/2013 12:55

I am confused, is this in the UK, or just Australia and New Zealand? All the promotional stuff about it seems to be from down under

othersideofchannel · 08/05/2013 11:19

The names that will be on there will obviously be the top 50 or so most popular names in New Zealand. Coke want to make money from this so obviously they'll only print the most common names.

None of our names are on there but we chose names that were not overused/common so I hope they're not on there Smile.

soyo they have lots of Celtic / Gaelic names on the NI / ROI ones - I got Eóin, Cormac , Orla, Caoimhe on my hunt yesterday for the family. My name was even there.

Wow, both DC's names are on there which is a first (DD's on second 50 list).
Shame they don't like Coke :)

Wishfulmakeupping · 08/05/2013 06:47

Does anyone know the Uk list?

puds11isNAUGHTYnotNAICE · 08/05/2013 06:41

Niether my name or DD's name is on. Oh well, I'm used to it.

NotMostPeople · 08/05/2013 06:40

All of ours are. Are they in shops then?

DolomitesDonkey · 08/05/2013 06:40

Found my son (welsh name) in holland. Other son, not a chance!

Glittertwins · 08/05/2013 06:38

Posted without reading all of it...I don't expect DD's name to be on the UK version of the list then!

Glittertwins · 08/05/2013 06:37

DD's name is surprisingly on the list, DS's is by abbreviation only which is odd.

wigglesrock · 08/05/2013 06:32

2 of my 3 are, although my name was one of the Tennents lager tin names so we have form Grin

OrangeLily · 08/05/2013 06:27

None for me or DH. There are shortened versions of our names hut we aren't called by them.

ditavonteesed · 08/05/2013 06:16

definatly not

Chubfuddler · 08/05/2013 06:14

After googling I have found they are doing the UKs most common 150 names. So I expect mine is out there somewhere but I haven't found one yet.

WhatKatyDidToday · 08/05/2013 06:04

All my 3 are on there - good, solid names- not 'common' !
