God no. It's a really wet, drippy name.

BikeRunSki · 12/06/2015 23:09

I like it

I love Morris/Maurice but I had a lovely neighbour called that when I was little. He was lovely. Also my grandad was called Maurice.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 12/06/2015 23:02

Maurice could definitely grow on me.

I was thinking if he was the younger he'd be Morris minor too. If he travelled with work or on a gap year Morris Traveller! Off to Oxford? Morris -, I think you get the gist.

I really don't like it, sorry!

Movingonmymind · 12/06/2015 22:00

No!

sweetpeame · 12/06/2015 21:58

Mmmm, no, not good!

Rhubarbgarden · 12/06/2015 21:56

Nay.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 12/06/2015 21:30

Nay, horrible

MumSnotBU · 12/06/2015 21:29

Or when he's at a disco he can be Morris dancing...Grin

MumSnotBU · 12/06/2015 21:28

If he's the younger son at boarding school he can be Morris Minor.

TheCowThatLaughs · 12/06/2015 21:27

Not keen, sorry

sebsmummy1 · 12/06/2015 21:20

I like it!

Clueing4looks · 12/06/2015 21:18

I prefer Maurice.

Tuesdays with.

Dunno.... kinda insipid.

I'm not really a fan of the name but I like the nickname 'Mossy'.

Is it sort of in the same era as Trevor, Derek and Brian etc?
