Susan Grin

Wow, my name is popping up on name threads??

looki · 17/11/2013 23:46

Too long a list for me too but here's my summary

Susan, Charlene, Karl, Archie, Teagan - awful, 1970s, dated names.
Sebastian, Isaac, Alex - nice names

The rest of them aren't to my taste, but are unoffensive and unmemorable.

sausageandorangepickle · 17/11/2013 23:01

Charles (Charlie) - My grandad, but v cool!
Susan - sarandon - a little dated
Stuart - a school friend, a bit 70's
Stefanie - lazy town/a bit 80's
Lisa - a bit nothing,
Claire - my neighbour, mum, housewife
Charlene - neighbours
Mark - good school friend, cool
Hollie - little girl - not good for grown ups
Archie - Eastenders(???)
Sebastian - posh
Isaac - Newton, cool, client I work with (good nn Zac)
Rebecca - novel, my cousin
Alex - naughty boy
Daniel - one of my DS's Smile
Karl - Pilkington, but better spelt this way than with a C
Georgina - lovely, Jilly Cooper type novels
Noah - Chris Evans
Oliver -
Peter - grown up (v good choice though)
Sophie - a colleague, OR a cute little girl
Tiegan - australian

Sorry they all sound a bit vague, but it was what the names reminded me of - not many celebs in there. For naming a baby now, I would go with Peter, Isaac or Mark for a boy, or Rebecca or Georgina for a girl.

PartyConfused · 16/11/2013 22:55
