If you picture an Alastair how old are they in your head? Just being nosey really!

40-50

StoatofDisarray · 02/06/2019 16:44

About 70 but I quite like the name!

Thallo · 02/06/2019 16:42

I know four of them and they all spell their name differently.

Almost 5 months, my cousins little boy born in January, I also know a couple in their 20s and 30s, I think it's quite an ageless name.

Greenteandchives · 02/06/2019 13:24

Mine is an Alasdair. Lovely name. 30 something.

99bb · 02/06/2019 13:22

Any. LOVE that name!

LarkDescending · 02/06/2019 13:11

...and have just remembered another who is 49.

LarkDescending · 02/06/2019 13:06

The ones I know (in London) are 11, 40 and 48.

daisypond · 02/06/2019 12:42

Any age.

Penny4Thoughts · 02/06/2019 12:41

I’d prob guess 40s or under 5s

EssentialHummus · 02/06/2019 12:40

One 2.5, one 70ish.

irisheyesaresmiling7 · 02/06/2019 12:38

I know one in his early 70s and two who are both just under 10. (NI here).

Well so far it looks as though you agree with me that it is an ageless name :)

Lovely name, only know one who i went to school with so he's now 36 but I think of him as a child of primary school age.

Notonthestairs · 02/06/2019 12:31

Actually I've got another one arriving at my house in 15 minutes and he's 48.

DonkeyHohtay · 02/06/2019 12:31

We live in Scotland and the Alistairs/Alastairs I know are 50, 46, 26, 16, 13, 11 and 4.

It's ageless.

Mouthfulofquiz · 02/06/2019 12:31

I know one that is 5 and one that is 55! Works for both!
