I am looking for boy name suggestions. 😊Thank you for your help.

( I would not go for names like Daniel or Michael )

Foreign names are tres a la mode: Titus, Romano, Wang Chung etc.

Is this for a book character?

dangerrabbit · 11/02/2018 11:26

Maverick, Rick for short.

Or maybe a girl name to challenge gender stereotypes.

DS name has been mentioned a few times. We aren't hipster, I grew up on a council estate and my brother chose DS name and he works in a factory. He doesn't even have a beard.

My dad's name has also been mentioned, granted he went to private school, but at 80 he isn't hipster.

The only middle class hipsters I know are called:
Hayden, Nathan, Brett and Dean.

Hipster kids are Bill, Frankie, Alec, Ronnie and Tyger

Yes Balonz.

But someone needs to find the original Balonz thread.

I went to school with a Rupert and his rather incongruously named older brother, Jason. Hmm

Jason was hotter than a July day in hell though so his name was forgiven. Grin

Grin

I can see him sitting there in his posh buggy, with his long beard and rolled up trousers poor wee bugger

sodabreadjam · 10/02/2018 23:55

Huxley.

VanillaSugar · 10/02/2018 23:45

That's quite a long name ssd - the poor kid will be spending ages writing that.

Then at least they're still OK names if the actual child doesn't want to be hipster.

EfficiencyDeficiency · 10/02/2018 23:23

Who the hell still says hipster?! Grin

For easiness I would give him the middle name- middle.

He would be quite unique with that I'm sure.
