Ewart?

Baby is going to be here Friday if all goes to plan with induction. Did have our name sorted if it was going to be a boy which was Kester but husband has done a u turn and think it clashes with our surname which is the same as a very famous comedian whose first name is billy.

So we have thought of Ewart tonight.

What are peoples thoughts on the name.

I haven't head of Ewart and don't like it. How about Ewan, Evan, Stuart?

Kester and Kit seem to be the trendy nicknames for Christopher at the moment but I much prefer just Chris.

Dislike Ewart. Euan is nice though! Good luck for FridaySmile

pmsl @ Mellicauli.

Just no, to OP, No to Ewart. I know boy names are tough, but you can do this. Keep working on it.

"What's you name?"
"Ewart"
"you what?"
"Ewart"
"Stewart?"
"Ewart"
"STEWART?"

Kester is much nicer and sounds fine with the surname.

How about Stewart or Ewan?

AvaCrowder · 06/12/2015 23:31

I second the good wishes and lovely cuddles with a new born.

I prefer Stuart or Euan. I've never heard of Ewart as a name, I live overseas, hang out in the Irish pub, so Cian I like.

Have fun with your baby!

Good luck for Friday...I think Ewart will be misheard as Stewart. How about Euan

Shit, Earl not eael

nickelbabe · 06/12/2015 22:39

Yes, along the lines of Ewart are:
Wyatt, stuart/stewart, everett/evert/everard, edward, edmund/edmond, eael or ayleward

nickelbabe · 06/12/2015 22:32

Ah it's okay, you're pregnant so pregnancy
it is Grin

I personally don't like it, but it does go well with your surname.
If you don't like the two hard consonants, then what about Lester? It's the same sound but without the K.

coolaschmoola · 06/12/2015 22:32

Tbh, thinking ahead, kids can be cruel so I'd probably avoid anything with, 'Ew!', 'Wart' or, 'Ewww! Wart!' There are a hundred names that could be based on Ewart and none of them are kind.

Wyatt?

SpanglesGalloway · 06/12/2015 22:31

It's very unusual I've never heard it before. To be honest first thing that comes to mind is a variation of Stuart/Stewart.
I honestly prefer Kester and if the comedian is "the big man" himself in think that sounds fine!
