Suede

Now I have heard some names over the last few years that strike me as odd. But MN frequently tells me otherwise (Velvet being a case in point a few months ago ). DH tells me not to be narrow-minded [sigh]. But DD came back from swimming the other day and told me she had met a girl called Suede. I asked her to repeat it and no I hadn't misheard it.

Am I just hopelessly old-fashioned or is Suede exceptionally strange name for a child?

Oh dear.

we met a boy called Gage the other day.

I made him spell it

very strange

I think velvet is rather odd too

oooh it's a bit rude. lIke Velvet, but older, more worn out velvet.

BTW I am assuming that was the spelling.
