Have name changed as this is SO outing 😬

I am having my tenth and final baby in December, just found out it’s a boy, my 7th boy and my 4th boy in a row!

Here are my other children’s names

Max
George
Tabitha
Ivor
Posy
Mabel
Stanley
Rocco
Winston

Im a bit lost for names, plus the older 5 children are teenagers and have an opinion on everything 😂 I like Ziggy, Frank, Bruno, Dexter and Axel. But don’t really love any of them.

TIA 🙂

Ernest
Diggory
Josiah
Joss (either as is or short for Josiah etc)
Silas
Dashiel
Barnabas/Barnaby
Zachary
Corin
Caspar
Ignatius (Iggy)
Kester (Kes)

I like Frank, especially short for Francis, Bruno might be hard to live up to..

I'd lay off Dexter, Ziggy and Axel - it sounds like you got bored with baby names and just called them after a neighbourhood dog

I think Dexter or Frank are great and go perfectly!

Max, George, Tabitha, Ivor, Posy, Mabel, Stanley, Rocco, Winston and

How the hell is nobody commenting on the fact you’ve name changed as this is “so outing” then proceeded to share the names of your NINE children!

Edited

She knows this thread is outing. That's why she said its "so outing."

I don't think she minds being outed for this thread. It's any threads about things her runny stools or accidentally reversing over the neighbour's cat she wants to disconnect it from.

thays Actually a really good list, I love Hector and completely forgot about it, dc9 was almost hector.

I do like Ernest aswell, it was my great grandads name and I have some nice memories of him when I was really little, maybe as a middle name though.

Oh yes Hector goes well with that bundle of names.

your right but -

Toby 🟰twee … won’t sound good when the child becomes a man

oscar 🟰 reminds me of the trash can character in Sesame Street

Show quote history

I have to concede I do think of Oscar the Grouch so it never made our lists, but its very popular and used alongside really nice names.

clarrylove · 30/08/2025 09:04

I think you should acknowledge the ten thing. So maybe Zayn, Declan or something with an x in it.

But I also love the name Torin for some reason. Good luck with whatever you choose!

Does it matter though if you like the name Dexter? I'm sure your son George won't have been the only George in school

Show quote history

It doesn’t matter if I REALLY love the name, max and George were one of about 7 max and George’s in their class 😆 I really loved their names and it didn’t bother me that they were popular.

Did you not realise why people name change? It’s so they can be outing and not link to other, previous posts. 🤭

Linus

I really wish I'd used Linus.

Decimus Septimus Meridius

(Or more seriously, how about Benjamin? It's often traditionally used to refer to the youngest sibling, Benjamin being Jacob's youngest son in the Bible)

Edited

Definitely Benjamin!!

I imagine what they mean is that the OP's post outs her as a mumsnetter to anyone she knows who happens to see this thread, even if the name change keeps her previous posts private. But presumably she doesn't mind about that.

That is what I meant. Thank you!
