I really like boys names starting with john (John-Paul, John-Joseph,etc). All my work colleagues hated them when we were talking about it last week Sad. What does everyone else think?

Well that's pretty decisive. Sad
I do agree with the pope comment - not what I want for future DS

Sorry but it sounds as if the parents just couldn't make up their minds.

Just no

I don't like hyphenated names for boys or girls tbh. I think they look indecisive and strangely greedy, like you had to use extra names because a first and a middle name just weren't enough.

However, that's probably deeply unreasonable of me.

No. Stop it. Your colleagues are right.

He'll sound like a pope or one of the Waltons.
