Siri is a standard Scandinavian name.

Similar to Alexa really.

Marymaymay · 05/01/2018 22:10

don’t mock Tudor

Amazing

Marymaymay · 05/01/2018 22:09

I met a Victory the other day.

Poor boy.

His friend was called Siri.

Poor girl.

Surely this is a wind up? If not how about Caesar or Brutus? ;)

SuburbanRhonda · 05/01/2018 21:54

Ah come on people.

Don’t mock Tudor Grin

Titus sounds like a dog. plus Tit bit would lead to teasing
Fintan sounds like infant
Tudor just makes me think of Henry V111.
Finlay
Terry
Thomas
Frank

I just had to watch the Fenton clip again pure gold Grin.
Dont like any of those names. Looks like trying too hard

RobertPostschild · 05/01/2018 21:35

Something else....

'Tobin'?

MrsBartlettforthewin · 05/01/2018 21:35

Tudor. It is an awesome name.

shsh3r · 05/01/2018 21:31

Tiger??

heateallthebuns · 05/01/2018 21:26

All really 'try hard' tbh.

FergusMum2 · 05/01/2018 21:21

To whomever said Finbar:

Viz. Finbar Saunders and his Double Entendres. Phnerr phnerrr.

Bellybootcut · 05/01/2018 21:21

Saxon is a good strong name that makes a statement.

Or Hadrian.

Although round here the poor child would be ribbed mercilessly.

MsHomeSlice · 05/01/2018 21:17

whatever happened to the classics Balonz and Persimmon??

bertrand be a sweetie and order me that Tshirt too...I'll have a large! :o

FergusMum2 · 05/01/2018 21:16

I wanted to call my son Titus as it is a brilliant name. Sadly, Shakespeare ruined it with a particularly nasty character called Titus Andronicus who was quite a LTB type. He is called Fergus instead.

MycatsaPirate · 05/01/2018 21:13

Have you considered Kevin? i don't think anyone calls their kids Kevin anymore.

It would be unique!

Topseyt · 05/01/2018 21:09

I'm not a fan of any of those, sorry.

I might consider them for a dog or cat.

Not a fan of any of those names to be honest. I think Finton is awful - it's like Findon but that's been messed up.Also it sounds like a legal firm or something.
Titus sounds like a pets name rather than a persons. Also Titus has 'Tit' built in to the name!
Tudor is okay, quite a strong name and 'Tude' is quite a cool nickname. Also theres the royal connection.

NinonDeLenclos · 05/01/2018 20:17

They're all marvelous. Am loving Tudor. Although Titus comes close second.

There are lots of Fins and being called Tight is not ideal.

NinonDeLenclos · 05/01/2018 20:16

I actually thought dog chase man was my neighbour.

Mrsknackered · 05/01/2018 19:51

Love Titus, Fintan's okay but prefer Finnian.

I had a Titus in my primary school, I don't remember any tit references.

BobbinThreadbare123 · 05/01/2018 19:50

Titus, from the Greek Titos. Origin tio, to honour.

Hector
Alexander
Hugo
Etc also nice 'old' names

SuperBeagle · 05/01/2018 19:37

All awful, but Fintan is the least awful.

BellBookandCandle · 05/01/2018 19:03

Loving Titus and Tudor.....I think Tudor is my favourite.

What about Silas, Theodore or Owain?
