CHRISTOPHER

It really is a great, underused name.

Shortenings - Kit, Kip, Tiff, Chris (Chris? Really?)

None of my DSes are called it, but it is a great name

Not keen on Christopher; but William is a lovely name.

Its good because there aren't many of them about, but you won't get people saying "Christopher? Oh what an unusual name"

We thought of it, by my sisters partner is called that, so it was too close to home for us. Good name though

cyteen · 29/08/2008 13:00

I don't like it
