You've missed what I meant... Tarquin Quentin...?

Quentin is a lovely name. Its not poncey at all (e.g. Quentin Tarantino) and appears to be becoming quite popular actually. I know 2 Quentin's under 3 years.

Quentin is my ds's name...

I think St John goes frightfully well. Of course, it depends on how many syllables your double barrelled surname has, and whether the family crest could potentially adjust?

Is Tarquin really such an awful name?? I'm not English (French) and don't live in the UK, so to me it doesn't sound too bad.... Also, it reminds me of author Tarquin Hall.

Farquar Tarquin is amazing, DS will definitely fit in at Eton.
For consideration my DS is named Tarquar Farquin Smythe-Fossington Jr after his father, has a lovely ring to it and after the Gossington-Avery's named their DS Farquar we couldn't possibly have used it.

Another HILARIOUS comedy posting...oh my aching sideszzzzz

Why only one middle name? Surely that's a bit, erm common.

I recommend Tarquin St John Valery Hillery.

Depends on the surname - long or short?

How about 'No Mates'?

Sorry. I just think it's a hilarious name.

Love your earlier question: "Are you common?" Hilarious.

Merrylegs · 29/01/2009 13:48

Soz.

Just know at little fFuntgruttock's nursery you can't move for Tarquins.

Tarquin S is a real pain. Tarquin W is a serial nose-picker. Tarquin P's very possesive when it comes to Lego.

Tarquin L's a cutey though.

Gaw! MUST do some work.

Curse you and your Tarquin talk.

Or how about Fin-tim-lin-bin-whin-bin-lim-bus-stop-F'tang-F'tang-Ole

(but only if your surname is Biscuit-barrel....)
