YES! My friend called her little one Rafferty and I'd never heard it before. I love it! Raff for short!

TobyLerone · 04/08/2013 14:47

A lot of people have last names as middle names or even first names.

bridgetsmum · 04/08/2013 14:45

No, it's poncy and pretentious
It's a surname

TobyLerone · 04/08/2013 14:39

Oh crap. I should have RTFT. Zombie.

TobyLerone · 04/08/2013 14:38

Love it. It will be one of DC3's middle names, whether it is a girl or a boy. It has significance in my (Irish) family.

Londongirl84 · 04/08/2013 13:45

I really like it!

MissTweed · 04/08/2013 07:51

I'm loving the fact that the comments on here from 2009 were mainly negative bit the ones from 3013 are mainly positive!! Strange how 4 years can have such a difference!! I'm trying to think of names that everyone hates now but could be popular in 2017!! Smile

Alisvolatpropiis · 04/08/2013 01:12

YES

5madthings · 04/08/2013 00:56

Who's been resurrecting all these threads today?......

rockybalboa · 03/08/2013 11:34

Yes but I just wasn't brave enough to use it! Jude Law has a Rafferty I believe.
