Is that Mary Berrys grandsons name? Saw that on the show the other day and thought wtf? Poncy sounding to me.

I just think 'hobo', sorry.

Love it from the goldfinch

No to Hobie

TheEagle · 22/07/2015 07:08

Yep all I can think of is Baywatch.

As I Hobie wan knobie?
Or Hobo?
Err. No.

Sorry no, not for me. Sounds too mch like Hobby and even if pronounced like nooka says, virtually no one will say it correctly.

I saw Mary berrys grandson Hobie on her program at the weekend and have been wondering what it's short for since!

Id never use it tbh, sounds a bit silly

ToysRLuv · 22/07/2015 06:58

Not a real name, IMO. Sounds like "hobby" or "hubby/ie", or "hoagie"..

EmpressKnowsWhereHerTowelIs · 22/07/2015 06:58

You wouldn't, would you? Not really?

nooka · 22/07/2015 06:51

Is that pronounced hob - ee or more like hoab - ee? Either way it doesn't really sound like a name to me, more of a nick name maybe.

Reminds me of Baywatch!
