Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Impressively, over the 4 classes and multiple intervention groups I've had, there have only been 2 names from the entire thread (I've checked carefully, too). I'm quite surprised!

*Jake and Luca/s

@Whateverwillwedonowthought it was a bit like Gary. Don’t get many of them these days. Was honestly surprised to hear it.

The info on here could be available indefinitely.
The set of names could identify the school and the individuals.

And then what might happen?

Genuine question.... Why is this list a problem / outing / being reported? It's just a load of names. Even if you did post the actual class register, without any further comment, how does this cause offence? Excuse my ignorance. I'm actually asking because I really don't understand the significance or impact.

Edited

Exactly. Just typical of some of the types you get on here - getting themselves worked up over absolutely nothing! 🙄🙄🙄🙄

There's more to it than that.

I'd love to hear what it is?

Emanwenym · 20/09/2025 16:45

NuffSaidSam · 20/09/2025 16:30

Ok....and the problem is that everyone at that school now knows that someone else from that school uses Mumsnet?! Is that an issue?

These are all trendy, common names now @JasmineTea11 .
One of those names was registered 13 times in 2023. The same number of times as Gerald but not as many as Trevor.

@NuffSaidSam , There are enough underused names to probably narrow it down to a school.

Ok this is a rough mix up of both my kids classes/friends/hobby groups in and out of school and our friends/relatives kids. I've left out the Asian origin names as there are lots of different ones and I've also no idea how to spell most of them. I've also left out any which are particularly unusual and outing.

It could be an area like Wrecsam.

@NoNameNoOne , because the names are a mix of popular names and some that are only used a few times and likely to be only used in some areas.
Somebody might recognise the class/school from the list.

I've thought of another instance of [name]. A character in a soap opera. Does that count?

Same here. OP said she made changes. I'm sure she's not daft!
