Pleased do not do this to your daughter @Radi0liverpool

Bizarre

Are you living in the UK?
Tit is British slang for women's breasts or a fool so Atit will sound like "a tit" which makes me think of a boob or a foolish person.

SweetBirdsong · 04/06/2023 19:21

No.

Okay pretty clear 😂

Yes the lake. And pronounced A tit lan

I thought it was pretty!

No. If you live in the UK she'll pretty certainly be called Tit, and that will lead to bullying throughout school. Throughout her life really.

As in the lake? I love an unusual name but as above I would avoid this as it’s just so obviously tit in the middle

No, it's weird and it's got tit in it.

Yep.
What makes it sound attractive to you, op?!

Thesunwillcomeoutverysoon · 04/06/2023 19:19

Came on to mention the tit issue also...

RaininSummer · 04/06/2023 19:19

It's an odd name. What is its background?

LorraineInSpain · 04/06/2023 19:18

I wouldn’t have a name with the word “tit” in it if she’s going to be growing up in the UK.

If you’re in a country that doesn’t have the same slang, go for it.

Infusionist · 04/06/2023 19:18

How do you pronounce it? Surely not A-tit-lan?

NineOfNine · 04/06/2023 19:18

How should it be pronounced?

Eudaimonia5 · 04/06/2023 19:18

No, it's weird and it's got tit in it.
