Guessing Game

Thought this would make a fun thread and maybe also provide names for people that are choosing that they wouldn't have thought of otherwise.

Think of a name (your child's or any name really) and provide 3 clues.

Other posters have to guess the name and once someone gets it right, it's their turn!

I'll start:

2 syllables

Very definitely a boys name but there is a feminine version

2 very common abbreviations/nicknames

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

You got it @joinourclub! (Though I was going for spelling it with two ls, Lucille)

Loved the Finbar clue, by the way Joinourclub

Bexter801 · 17/03/2018 22:48

Willow?

masktaster · 17/03/2018 22:28

A slightly cryptic one from me, then.

Her fortune is without end, and then she is unwell, and the drugs finish her off.

Joinourclub · 17/03/2018 21:32

masktaster correct!

flybabyfly · 17/03/2018 19:47

Ah masktasker that must be right! Grin

Bexter801 · 17/03/2018 19:14

Willie?

Joinourclub · 17/03/2018 19:12

Actually, quick Google shows it should be an 'Irish man'.

Joinourclub · 17/03/2018 19:11

Ok, my clues aren't going to be as good as yours ....

This Scottish man is half shark , half pub.

(It makes sense to me, but I have opened a bottle of wine!)

FintyTin · 17/03/2018 16:47

@Joinourclub you certainly are - well done!
Your turn. Smile
