A silly thread (no children will be subjected to these names)

If I had a boy it would be Artery nn Art and a girl would be Ileum nn Illy.

Anyone else? Smile

My DH is a teacher and actually has a girl in his class named Areola.

Otolith for me - I think it works for either sex!

Meatus

Sternum

Septum

MashedUpPotatoes · 31/03/2023 00:29

Also quite like Freckles for either sex

Pinkbonbon · 31/03/2023 00:29

Ankle.

Dunno why. It was the first thing that came to mind.

Gamete

Perineum

Conjunctiva

Ophyron

Langerhans - great for a German baby boy who is expected to grow up big and tall like his dad

MashedUpPotatoes · 31/03/2023 00:26

Pharynx & Larynx B/G twins.

Poppins2016 · 31/03/2023 00:12

I think I'd choose Tibialis.

Vagina and Vulva sound quite pretty (if you treat the words objectively). I actually know someone named Fulva in real life (not dissimilar in sound).

Heart, Pancreas and Liver all have potential.

Scaphoid is funky sounding.

Inkblue · 31/03/2023 00:10

Cornea for a girl
Thymus for a boy

Sunset6 · 31/03/2023 00:10

Pelvis for a boy (Pelvis Presley?)

BoreOfWhabylon · 31/03/2023 00:10

Dura
Pia
Zygoma (Ziggy)
Vagus

FirstnameSuesecondnamePerb · 31/03/2023 00:09

Cochlea. Lea for short.

Wfhwannabe · 31/03/2023 00:09

Purkinje for a girl

Henle for a boy.

WandaWonder · 31/03/2023 00:08

'Brain' meets my playground list

'Brain would you stop climbing that tree' shouted out

TomatoSandwiches · 31/03/2023 00:08

What about Cervix but spelt Sir - Vix, the newborn heir to the leading decongestant producers.

ZandathePanda · 31/03/2023 00:07

Endoplasmic (Reticulum) = boy
Golgi (Apparatus)= girl

TenPenceMix · 31/03/2023 00:06

Vulva and Tarsal b/g twins.

CC4712 · 31/03/2023 00:05

OMG- I'm crying with laughter at some of these! 😂

Are health conditions allowed instead of actual body parts?

'Look how cute little Melena is today!'

SnailKite · 31/03/2023 00:03

I do actually know an Ilia.

Chin is nice. And I could get used to Nostril.

ApocalypseNowt · 30/03/2023 23:59

Scapula for a boy - he'd need to be a Greek hero type though, not just any grotty little herbert.

Aeorta for a girl. Would need to be public school girl. Rides ponies. Bessie mate called Glabella
