I am so stuck. I have girls' names galore, please give me nice slightly arty boys' names that won't get hugely popular in a year or two

Linus is swedish!
I am confident that in 4 months time you will have got over peanuts

Linus Boden

Coooooooool

WendyWeber · 16/03/2008 16:30

Linus is fab in French, though.

I once knew a large hairy French dog Linus, when they called him it sounded like "lee-NOOSE" - very cool.

Psychobabble maybe, but tbh it isn't something I have researched so I am not sure whether my experience really fits the definition or not. Have you experience of it? I will email you later
