I love the name, but I don’t think I could use it now with the Percy Pig connection.

I think it could grow on me if it wasn’t for the Percy pig thing.

HScully · 28/04/2025 21:52

I love it, such a shame about thr pig connection

Percy the Park keeper is lovely! But no, it’s too old for a baby

No

Don’t like it at all

Yeah, he's going to be known as Percy Pig. Fingers crossed he isn't fat.

CONTEXT

I highly dislike the name personally (Percy Pig, Percy Pervert) however, my DB and DSIL are thinking of calling their baby it.

I want to see general consensus, and if it’s just me being negative or if others also dislike the name!

Since you’ve asked, personally I think it’s awful.

But whatever name you pick, you’ll get a mix of opinions. I’m sure plenty of people don’t like the names my DDs have.

No.

Daisy12Maisie · 28/04/2025 21:48

You can’t because of M and S and the Percy Pigs.

MrJollyLivesNextDoor · 28/04/2025 21:48

Lord Percy?

I love it, but… it will get Percy Pig comments I’m afraid!
