Rex is a cool name

Ooh don't be so rude with the 'discuss' instruction.

Asidefrom that Rex is a cool name, despite what pp say. I know a cool teen Rex and a 4 year old. I think it'll become more popular. It's simple, not commonr, but not unknown; it's what people want from a baby name.

Rex is great. You'll be inundated with toy dinosaurs too.

I know a Rex in his 60's. It really suits him.

I adore it - hence I know there was a thread on this a few weeks ago - it seemed about 50/50 divide but I say just go for it (because I didn't and am not willing to through another 9 months just for the chance to have a Rex!!)

NewEraNewMindset · 25/11/2014 20:38

Hmmm just Rex on it's own or as a nickname?

Pancakeflipper · 25/11/2014 20:38

I went to school with a Rex and by the times we hit our teens he was forever known (and still is) known as Sexy Rexy because we were that immature.

He had the charisma and generous humour to not let it bother him.

Other people will say it's a dogs name like Shep.

It's one better than Prince, I suppose. Grin
