Opinions/ middle names for Rogue

305 replies

Robyn578 · 28/01/2018 19:53

I have been looking for names for a little while. I want something unusual thats not going to crop up everywhere and Rogue is the only name ive really fallen in love with! I would use it for either a boy or a girl. Middle name for a boy would be John after a family member, but im worried Rogue John sounds a bit like a dodgy curry! Middle names for a girl would either be Evangeline, joan or Elizabeth. Does anyone have any opinions/suggestions/alternatives? (No Rogans or logans please!)

Nominations for classics?

My friend is an Arwen. She's lovely.

Rogue is awful. So glad OP is going back to the drawing board so long as she keeps posting bonkers names every now and then

PiecesOfHate · 30/01/2018 10:47

Rogue is the only name ive really fallen in love with

But it's not actually name.
It's really not.

"I had a really bad date the other day, he pulled out his Rogue John in the taxi'"

k2p2k2tog · 30/01/2018 08:56

How about Radge?

Or to continue the Scottish theme, what about Jakey or Bam?

pickleofficer · 29/01/2018 20:10

Please, no. Just no, no, no. Think of the future adult going for a job interview. Don't inflict this on that poor child!

Sorry op. I'm actually crying at some of these replies Rogue Juan GrinRoguey One Kanobi GrinGrin

I know of a child called Maverick

Poor kid will be saddled if he ends up becoming an accountant or something

I always think Grace is a ricky one too

Rogue-Mae
Rogue-Grace
Rogue-Rose
Rogue-Anna

Lovely Grin

The problem with a name like this OP is that a child has to suit it, and life doesn't always work out like that

I know! Your mother gives you a pretty name like Primrose, but then you go and marry a doctor named Shipman who helps old ladies with lots of money and jewellery to rewrite their wills in his favour and then die... and people say all kinds of nasty things about you ...

I had a friend with a yacht called Arwen. A fine vessel she was....

Sorry, off topic I know Grin

The problem with a name like this OP is that a child has to suit it, and life doesn't always work out like that.
For example, so many Lord of the Rings fans call girls Arwen after a willowy elf but the child is short, dumpy and bespectacled.

ShotsFired · 29/01/2018 09:47

Unique names?

Hardly. Unless you are happy for people to think you are so incapable of original thought you called your child after a Star Wars film (as best).

At worst, well, pick from a long list of shitness your kid will have to go through their entire life saddled with that.

Change your own name to it if you like it so much but don't drop that on a baby for christ's sake.

It is a little bit Kardashian-West-Esque but it's up to you OP. People on here can be quite rude.

SoupDragon · 29/01/2018 09:38

The names i consider for my child are MY choice.

And it’s a choice your child has to live with. Thank goodness you’ve gone back to the drawing board though.

If you want to use Rogue, get a pet.

Imagine introducing yourself with your chosen name. Or even try it out for a few weeks, see how it goes.

PhuntSox · 29/01/2018 09:38

Keep looking OP, you will find the right name eventually.

How about Vita for a girl?

Ghostontoast · 29/01/2018 09:35

Hozabout Rogue Pogue Mahone!

NataliaOsipova · 29/01/2018 09:21

First rule of naming babies: Don't Be Weird.

Yes. Totally agree.

Being unique is not a good thing in the digital age.

This should be the second rule.....

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 29/01/2018 09:18

I would like to add my " I have never posted negatively on a name thread but please don't" vote.

However thanks for the much needed laughter to cheer me up on a monday morning Grin

rcit · 29/01/2018 09:18

I have suggestions: Oliver or Olivia.

I am completely serious. Being unique is not a good thing in the digital age.

phoenix1973 · 29/01/2018 09:14

Rogue 🤣🤣🤣🤣
What about cowboy? Villain?

Potteryprincess30 · 29/01/2018 09:13

@Robyn578 people also really need to move on as well, now you've said ages ago your going back to the drawing board. 'To much time on their hands, and not a lot going on in their own lives' springs to mind Hmm
