Archer is a lovely name, on our short list.

Floggingmolly · 30/01/2016 23:52

Not for real people, magpie. They're brand names for commercial products.

duckduckquack · 30/01/2016 23:50

I think Renzo is cool though I seem to be in the minority. Weston makes me think of a chain of hotels and it would be shortened to what, westy? Like a dog? Archer is ok but Renzo gets my vote Smile

Are these real names? Hmm

dangerrabbit · 30/01/2016 23:45

I quite like surnames as first names and think all of these are ok but I think it depends what your own surname is as to whether any of them would work.

Kingfisherfree · 30/01/2016 23:42

OK what about Bob?

Kingfisherfree · 30/01/2016 23:41

How about Ben, James or William?

Yika · 30/01/2016 23:39

I like Renzo! It's unusual yet easy to say and spell.

Xmasbaby11 · 30/01/2016 23:39

Oh I think you need to start from the drawing board, sorry.

LilacSpunkMonkey · 30/01/2016 23:38

Are you having a baby or a 90s rapper from Blazin' Squad?

Sophronia · 30/01/2016 23:36

None, sorry. How about Enzo or Lorenzo instead of Renzo?

squoosh · 30/01/2016 23:35

Oh a part Italian Lorenzo could definitely carry off Renzo sandgrown!

sandgrown · 30/01/2016 23:33

Oh sqoosh my GS is Lorenzo ( which I think is a lovely name) but we do call him Renzo. He is part Italian though.

squoosh · 30/01/2016 23:31

I think Archer is okay actually, but I wouldn't be keen on the inevitable Archie.

squoosh · 30/01/2016 23:30

Archer and Weston sound like love rivals from Dynasty.

squoosh · 30/01/2016 23:30

Renzo reminds me of Gonzo.

Renzo, Archer or Weston?
MissAlabamaWhitman · 30/01/2016 23:22

I prefer Archer.

MissAlabamaWhitman · 30/01/2016 23:22

Weston are a group from (west) London.

IoraRua · 30/01/2016 23:10

Ahahaha.
No. No to all of them.

Izzyathome · 30/01/2016 23:09

I like Archer. Not so keen on Renzo or Weston. Disagree that they are not names though. Renzo Piano is a very famous architect. I know him and I'm not much into architecture! Then the author Archer Mayor? And my husband's granddad is always going on about Archer Martin - Nobel prize winning chemist. Also my hubby's granddad name! :)
Can't add much to WestonGrin

Gunting · 30/01/2016 22:59

Renzo sounds like a medicine
Archer isn't a name
Weston is this like Brooklyn? Was your baby conceived at Weston super mare ?

ChristineDePisan · 30/01/2016 22:58

Wasn't Jeffrey Archer from Weston-Super-Mare?

Coldtoeswarmheart · 30/01/2016 22:57

None of them, sorry. Weston and Archer are surnames as far as I am concerned.

Renzo makes me think of the film Lorenzo's oil, and therefore that it's not the full version of the name, which is a pet hate of mine.

LAAAANNNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
