I know that they're marmite names but which do you prefer for a boy?

Unless you're American, neither.

"Chase is on the case" springs to mind. And "Shay whatttttt".

My Shay is a teenager. We all still love it!

Shay always sounds unfinished to me. Chase is good, but the Paw Patrol thing would probably put me off.

Love Shay.

Neither.

Met a little boy called chase recently, first child, his parents had no idea about the paw patrol reference when naming him, now all they hear is Chase is on the case.

Also met a girl called Shay, it really suited her. I’m assuming it’s a unisex name. I think I’d like it on a boy too.

Not keen on either but if I had to choose, Shay

Thereoughttobeclowns · 27/06/2023 13:54

Neither. Both are atrocious.

For a male puppy, Chase.

For a male child, neither.
