Baby name Arrow

What do you think?

Someone on my instagram has an Arrow arriving in August. She already has a baby Armour

I know I'd never use it because I'm not brave! But does anyone else secretly like these names?

I have a real soft spot for quirky names

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

This woman is an idiot

Nope. I like names not random nouns.
Poor kids.

The instagram bio says it all.

And can't spell either. How does someone get so many followers? What is wrong with society 😕

Galoop · 01/09/2024 03:40

Mother of 10 😬 Poor kids

Synchronisedwitches · 01/09/2024 01:16

I actually really love it! It's quite out there but it kinda sounds like many trendy names now days.. Atlas, Willow etc
So I don't think it would stand out that much

SnowFrogJelly · 01/09/2024 01:15

Arrow Beau?

RightTrainer · 31/08/2024 23:44

I knew it would be the absolutely unhinged Karissa when you posted those names!
nealry killing her children not getting babies medical help and believing her pregnancy last 12months and her baby can be resurrected through prayer

Bravo!

I'm definitely in the minority here, but I love the name Arrow. My daughter 18 months is Arowe and if she was a boy it would've been Arrow.
Everyone calles her Rowie most of the time. No one has ever commented on it being a 'weapon' name, and i didnt really think about it at the time but we did get it from a family name 'Yarrow', we get compliments all the time on her name! My older son is Leo, and I've always loved the name Beau so I'm glad my partner talked me out of that! 🤣

Helloworld56 · 29/05/2024 21:08

Awful names.

angelshine123 · 29/05/2024 21:06

Please just take a second to think if you were an employer reading a CV of somebody called ARROW. I don't understand the need for these unrealistic names. You're naming a human not an animal the poor child has to live with this name until they are old enough to change it. Kids are brutal as it is these days with bullying.

Daisybuttercup12345 · 22/05/2024 21:48

Only if you use it for a middle name with Red as the first name.
Ridiculous. It's a human not a toy!
Next baby may be Knight!!!

SabreIsMyFave · 20/05/2024 23:26

😆 Arrow and Armour. Oh FFS why do people do this to their babies?!

The next one will be AK47. Poor kids. And to answer your question, no I do not have a secret penchant for such weird names. But then quite normal ones get my goat too.

BoudiccaOfSuburbia · 21/05/2024 11:59

SnowFrogJelly · 21/05/2024 00:59

Next up baby 11 Arsehole baby 12 Angina baby 13 Areola

😂

Abyooosed might be a more accurate name.
Sadly.

TM1979 · 21/05/2024 11:54

Ridiculous name.

Dolallytats · 21/05/2024 11:32

Dan Reynolds from Imagine Dragons has a daughter called Arrow.

Toooldforthis36 · 21/05/2024 11:27

Daft, why do people do this to their kids 🤷‍♀️

Apollo365 · 21/05/2024 11:25

It’s got to be Apollo

CurlewKate · 21/05/2024 11:19

Is it "quiverful" stuff?

Yes, and she's actually had one of her youngest children in hospital on the brink of death a couple of times because she refused to get her the appropriate help.

She is a neglectful parent and shouldn't be given anymore airtime.

WhatATimeToBeAlive · 21/05/2024 11:20

Poor Anchor 😂

And Christ, nobody needs 10 kids.

Lance
Archer
Spurs
Pierce

Amour is a french girls name meaning love.

MaryFuckingFerguson · 21/05/2024 10:58

Arrow?😂

They need to stop having babies. Just read the list and the mangled spellings - Ansyr and Aynjel? 😂 Those poor kids.

Monochord · 21/05/2024 10:52

Wow, just read about that movement. I actually feel quite sorry for anyone who gets sucked into that movement, children, women and men. It can’t be good for any of them

Monochord · 21/05/2024 10:45

Arrow sounds ok, but I can imagine quite a lot of crude jokes after puberty if he’s a boy. I personally would not use it.

Arrow and Armour together is just ridiculous sounding.
