Just got back from the park where we met a child called Tiara. Obviously I can't vouch for the spelling but thought all you expectant mummies would be dying to add that one to your lists...

ooops sorry

Whats wrong with the name like the Kea, It was on our short list for a boy.

Glad i didn't choose it now. When your slagging these names off you should watch who your offending. I'm not offended but thats not my childs name. How would you like someone slagging your kids names off?

Some folk have nothing better to do

Carolyn1941 - it wasn't Keir, was it, rather than Kea?

I heard a girl called Platinum the other day.

I looked after a little boy whose middle name was tiger, and his twin brothers had animal names as middle names too.

DD1 was a nursery with a Tiger (boy) with a younger brother called Rip.

I know of a Tottenham, although it is a middle name, thankfully!

There's a girl at the school I teach at--last name Day, first name Lovely.

AHLH · 10/04/2008 18:55

Oh I forgot about this one. I knew twins at school who was into lorry racing and their middle names were Scania and Volvo. Fortunately their middle names.

vito and Laura - my mum works with a woman who's kids are in the McLatchie's class - that's in Maryhill - definitely true

There's a Pocahontas in Dundee too!

beckyvicky · 10/04/2008 16:45

My friend taught a child whose parents called him 'gooey' his name was written thus:Guy!

AHLH · 10/04/2008 14:34

I met a girl yesterday called Autumn. I asked her if her birthday was in the autumn, and she said, "no, March". I wonder what her parents were thinking? My MIL is called May, but then she was born in May, which makes a lot more sense.

Iklboo · 10/04/2008 13:51

My hairdresser's'friend called her daughter Fennel

LauraT · 10/04/2008 13:47

I've come across the Glasgow McClatchey twins as well, although I have it on good authority that apparently it's pronounced "Ver- sayse" which is oh so much more amusing...

There's a Pocahontas in Paisley.

Dur, like many wisecracks, it's gone straight over my head.

Tiara is getting to be very, very common round where I live.

In fact you could say that there is quite a 'Tiara boom today!'

margosbeenplayingwithmynoonoo · 10/04/2008 12:15

He he, "Zandalee and Xanadu, come in for your Tea!"

margosbeenplayingwithmynoonoo · 10/04/2008 12:14

Do you know a child called Xanadu as well? (can you remember the song - did O Newton-John sing it?)

Mum2b2BabyRoo · 10/04/2008 12:02

I know a little girl called Zandalee!!
