I know that the name is marmite but its after really growing on me lately. I think it's fresh, strong, quirky, cool and would suit a boy and a man.

I'm not yet pregnant (fertility issues ) but like to think ahead to hopefully a bfp!

I have a ds called Eli. Other names I love are Arlo, Asa and Ezra!

So what do you all think of Rex???

Oh no. Please. Its really unfriendly and harsh. Can you imagine cooing over your newborn and then barking, "REX" at him?

Its impossible to vocalise it in a gentle way. And then when he's older, calling him? "REX!" "REX!" The poor mite will be scared stiff!

I love Arlo, which is a very different sound to Rex. And Eli has a very gentle sound too. Wonder why you like REX?

Rex is a dog. Or a pet dinosaur.

I know an anaesthetist called Rex. He's in his 60's and a total dude. I don't get the dog reference at all. Dogs are called all kinds of names

I don't like it. Your other names are fine (though I don't love them) but a big NO to Rex. Sorry!

Unicorn.....yep I get the dog thing, I even knew a dog named Rex, but it doesn't bother me.

I also know dogs called Lily, Poppy, Charlie, Javk etc etc that doesn't stop people using those names!
