Someone on YouTube just named their baby girl this... wasn’t sure at first but now think it’s really pretty, unique and simple.
They use nn Coco.

Not sure I’d ever use it but out of curiosity what do you think?

Oh my god.

Cove Actually

SilverySurfer · 24/08/2019 22:22

Awful, ridiculous, absurd, ghastly, horrible - take your pick.

nicenewdusters · 24/08/2019 21:44

Awful. I immediately thought of Michael Gove and coving.

moonpiggle · 24/08/2019 21:36

Ah I saw this on youtube OP. Cove Ferris. Not keen at all.

Rachelover40 · 24/08/2019 21:29

A bizarre name in my opinion, it means:

1.a small sheltered bay.
synonyms: bay, inlet, indentation, fjord, natural harbour, anchorage; More
2.
ARCHITECTURE
a concave arch or arched moulding, especially one formed at the junction of a wall with a ceiling.

I wonder what the little girl will make of her name as she grows older.

inwood · 24/08/2019 21:09

So why not just call her coco? Cove is a crap name.

Rtmhwales · 24/08/2019 20:57

It's my dog's name :)

SciFiRules · 24/08/2019 20:56

Plater or polyurethane?

CodenameVillanelle · 24/08/2019 20:51

It's a ridiculous name.

joystir59 · 24/08/2019 20:50

nn would be Co not Coco

joystir59 · 24/08/2019 20:35

I prefer Coving or Curb. More architectural and clean sounding. Cave is another option.

Figgygal · 24/08/2019 18:57

And a not very nice suburb of Aberdeen either
Unless you like concrete boxes

Figgygal · 24/08/2019 18:56

It's ridiculous

RaininSummer · 24/08/2019 18:55

Dreadful name. Daft having a nickname which is more syllables than the actual name too.

PaulHollywoodsSexGut · 24/08/2019 18:41

It’s a suburb of Aberdeen fgs

NameChange84 · 24/08/2019 18:37

Poor child Hmm

Whoops75 · 24/08/2019 18:36

Awful

and coco is the same length so hardly a nn

Frith2013 · 24/08/2019 18:34

Ahahaha!

Somewhere you’d store your fishing boat or coving that people with no taste put up around their living rooms.

HeronLanyon · 24/08/2019 18:32

It a male word like chap very Wodehouse but not a girls name at all.
Clover ?

user1493494961 · 24/08/2019 18:27

Dreadful.

Pipandmum · 24/08/2019 18:04

Nope.

BethanyGilbert · 24/08/2019 18:03

I used to know a boy called Cove when I was a teenager. I thought it was his surname for the longest time.
