For a boy, I like these two.
They would have a more 'proper' middle name, either Anthony or James

Eden, traditionally a boys name.

very chavvy as a girls name though, Rylee is awful.

He was a shit as it happens. So I shall continue to judge.

Out of the two it would be Eden
Rylee is awful

17caterpillars1mouse · 15/09/2017 17:53

Eden seems more a girls name to me. I know it's unisex but I would automatically think Girl.

I would also assume Rylee was a girl with this spelling. Riley? Ryley?

How about Rylan?

AutumnalLeaves38 · 15/09/2017 14:41

Pancakeflipper,

"Apparently Rileys are usually naughty at school."

Eh? According to which massively generalising source?

AutumnalLeaves38 · 15/09/2017 14:32

Eden.

But only if spelled Eeden.

Eeden-Blu? Wink

Seriously, though, OP, Aidan James would be nice.

MammieBear · 15/09/2017 14:20

In not sing!

MammieBear · 15/09/2017 14:20

If you like Riley how about river? And if you like Eden how about Roman? They are more masculine names in case he sing a class with a girl that has the same name.

Idratherhaveacupoftea · 15/09/2017 14:12

I only know Eden as a boys name.

TurquoiseChevrotain · 15/09/2017 14:06

@brapbrapbrap - maybe you shouldn't judge? Confused

Eden is definitely unisex. The first Eden I knew was a boy (in my primary school class) but I do prefer it for a girl.

I think you're on a windup though!

brapbrapbrap · 14/09/2017 22:31

So, I taught a new class today. A pupil named Rylee turned up! I added his name to the register and obviously wrote the correct spelling- Riley. He then had to correct me.

I totally judged his parents for his crap name and assumed he was going to be a shit misbehave.

This is what your child is going to experience.

FfionFlorist · 13/09/2017 15:52

Neither. James Anthony is a much better choice.

TeaAndToast85 · 13/09/2017 15:13

I'm afraid I don't really like either, but then he's not my baby! Out of the two I prefer Eden, although Eden Anthony is a bit of a tribute to the old Tory PM!

Riley. Spelt correctly.

I don't think you're actually serious though, too many threads with truly awful names.

Xeneth88 · 12/09/2017 17:54

I've read all your threads, did this kid do something bad to you in a previous life?

WestLands17 · 12/09/2017 17:48

@greendale17 ^^

WestLands17 · 12/09/2017 17:48

@Mrskeats Eden is unisex. I know 5 male Edens, all adults.

Mrskeats · 12/09/2017 17:24

Why do people make up names these days it's awful
Rylee is not a name and Eden is a girl's name

greendale17 · 12/09/2017 17:09

Eden is a girls name.

Why spell it Rylee? Riley is better

Yourshakraishangingout · 12/09/2017 17:08

Eden is my nephews name-his dad is Turkish and it's definitely classed as a boys name there. He's a gorgeous little thing. Both my DS and BIL are investment bankers-with his schooling I doubt his CV will be thrown in the bin ;)

Sorry, I can't defend Rilee though OP

Pancakeflipper · 12/09/2017 17:06

Juggle It all up and go for Edenleery

Apparently Rileys are usually naughty at school.
