This is one of the few names I like.

What do you think? Do you like it?

Winston is an EXCELLENT name.

What can you use as nn?

IwantPeace · 16/04/2009 09:48

Although agree it probably needs a strong personality to carry it off

IwantPeace · 16/04/2009 09:35

Does he suit his name feetheart?

feetheart · 14/04/2009 08:33

I like it and the Winston I know is beyond funny and definitely fits into the 'Milky Bar' category

WinkyWinkola · 14/04/2009 08:28

I love Winston. It's a very fine name. Go for it.

Beyond awful, sorry. I imagine this name on a skinhead, as I went to school with a rough one called Winstone.

BootyShake · 13/04/2009 21:09

I like it

LastOrders · 13/04/2009 20:16

I think Scottish hit the nail on the head there - a very strong name to carry off.

bouncebouncebounce · 13/04/2009 20:08

Is it really strongly associated with her though? I mean, how many people actually know what her son is called?

chequersmate · 13/04/2009 19:42

Too strongly associated with Billie Piper for me. Don't like Winnie either.

Much prefer Wilfred, have you considered that?

ScottishThistle · 13/04/2009 19:41

Not keen, a very strong name to carry off I think!

Think Winston only works if you have a bit of a burly robust child!

Wouldn't look quite right on a milky bar type child IYSWIM!

ceeceeanne · 13/04/2009 10:34
