Is Roger due a revival?

I haven't seen any mumsnetters mention the name 'Roger', so what do you reckon? Is it due a revival? What other names could be resurrected?

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Brian and Kevin are still in the top 100 Irish boys names. And Martin! We laugh in the face of fashion!

Maybe Nicholas?

Oh lordy, I hope not. You might as well call him Shag.

The world just isn't ready for an influx of baby Rogers just yet.

I mean it will definitely come back in just hopefully not for a while yet. Brace yourselves ladies for a future grandson called Roger. Start practising your best 'oh what a lovely name', 30 years should be enough notice to become halfway convincing.

Stanley is your parents' Roger.

Roger is out.

Brian, Walter, Norman stand a chance.

EyeOfNewtBigtoesOfFrog · 20/11/2013 14:05

Baby Roger. Doesn't sound right!

In fact it sounds so wrong, I can't imagine that even people who are called Roger were ever actually a baby called Roger.

DawnOfTheDee · 20/11/2013 14:04

Nope.

heidihole · 20/11/2013 14:01

Christ, no

tweetytwat · 20/11/2013 13:57

I doubt it. Not before Kevin, Keith and Wayne at least.

Eh, no.

squoosh · 20/11/2013 13:47

Hopefully not.

No. Next?
