Calling a baby Quentin!

Ooookkkkay, so my friend's going to call her little boy Quentin! She knows I hate it but I know she hates my chosen baby name and neither of us care, we both find it quite funny. Is anyone out there a fan of Quentin? Or do you think slightly weirdo 50 year old who wears a mismatch of tweed and mustard cord trousers?

There was a Quentin used to hang around our old local, and you described him! Wore old tweeds, specs, flirted with men and women and collected glasses just to feel useful.

I quite like Woody :0)

Errr, no, and I usually like unusual names. Come on, are you going to tell us your chosen baby name?

I'm thinking very skinny and ginger.

Well, if she doesn't send him to a private school, he will grow up one tough little cookie!
