My cat’s called Ziggy. He is a beauty though.

I see this more of a nickname than an actual name.

Can't imagine a lawyer or doctor with a first name of ziggy

fenneltea · 13/09/2018 15:28

I think of it as a pets name, also worth trying to imagine a seventy year old with the name you want to use; but then it might be more common in the future anyway I suppose? Not one I would pick, but choose what you love.

I love Ziggy, but I would never be brave enough to use it. If you want your child to be known as that, thenbgo for it!

Small world Piece... if it’s the same one, after all how many Ziggy/Peters can there be, I knew him when he lived in a town beginning with the letter ‘F’, haven’t seen him since school though so know idea what he’s doing now.

There's a Ziggy in my ds class at school full name is Zachary. I like it!

Decanter · 13/09/2018 00:55

I think the Ziggy in Big Little Lies was called Ziegfield.

Makes me immediately think of David Bowie. But that's a good thing as the man's a legend.

moredoll · 13/09/2018 00:49

David

@ConsiderHerWaysAndOthers I know a Ziggy who was Peter - must be the same one. Lives in a village beginning with K?

AnnieAnoniMoose · 13/09/2018 00:18

Ziggy?

I’d be looking for his twin.

Zaggy.

Sorry, to me it’s a daft popstar name, not a proper name.

Each to their own

Ziggy from Grange Hill

SumAndSubstance · 13/09/2018 00:02

I know a Ziggy short for Zbigniew. He’s Polish though- not sure you could pull it off if you weren’t 😃

A580Hojas · 12/09/2018 20:56

Everyone thinks Ziggy Stardust. What is wrong with that?

ohdeardeardear · 12/09/2018 20:25

I have a dog called Ziggy

Bobbybobbins · 12/09/2018 20:20

Zachary or Ezekiel would be good choices for a Ziggy non

KalindaBlack · 12/09/2018 20:15

It is an awesome name but I immediately think Stardust.

LordOfTheFleas · 12/09/2018 20:05

LordOfTheFleas · 12/09/2018 20:04

Whydididothatfuckingthing · 12/09/2018 19:59

Love Ziggy, but I’m biased used to fancy Ziggy from Grange Hill.

MilesHuntsWig · 12/09/2018 19:59

@hobblesma same here - our cat's called Ziggy.

GinIsIn · 12/09/2018 19:58

George is great. You can’t have Rupert and Teddy!
