Will he be comfortable being called that when he's a teenager?

Awful imo.

Dislike it. A weak name.

As a Corrie fan, I will always say it :"ooh, Percy!" In a Phyllis Pearce deep voice Grin

I had this on the list for DD2. I asked a few friends what they thought of it. Someone said it put her in mind of a lisping mummy's boy with receding hair. I must admit it put me off.

I think it's fine. The Percy Jackson series of books and films is pretty popular, I'm surprised there aren't more little Percys.

Love it too.

I know 2 Percys

One is a dog and one is a cat

He's a bit of a knob in Harry Potter.

No unless you're a tank engine or really posh, then fine

Thatextrainch · 18/03/2017 14:14

It's no different to Alfie, Arthur, Henry etc imo

esiotrot2015 · 18/03/2017 14:14
