Pretty sure I had a thread on this when pg with DC1 (who turned out to be DD1)!

DH and I still love this name and it is on the short list for DS1. But I seem to remember a lukewarm reception last time due to a cartoon character which I hadn't heard of Hmm

Just thought I'd run it past you again!

Ah yes that was it. Someone in Bugs Bunny. Is this still popular with children? Does it matter?

I don't mind quite like the elephant connection.

I was at a kids event recently and came across two little girls (I assumed they were sisters) called Elmer and Dixie.

He's the hunter after Bugs Bunny

Fudd.

And then I opened the thread to see how many other people had said it.

Yep. Elmer Fudd.

Yep, Fudd is the first thing that springs to mind for me too.
