Niko?

she will be a girl obviously.

my eldest is 18. (there is no way on gods earth i would but thought id ask anyway....

i love this name. and there is a singer called this and she also happens to share my sir name.

im thinking of changing DDs name by deed poll. i wonder if that would be less unreasonable than having a baby....

YABU. I teach a (very naughty) boy called Niko.

atswimtwolengths · 30/07/2010 23:12

If you're thinking of the Andy Warhol singer, then it's Nico.

My brother is a really good friend of hers!

But why not change your own name?

Niko TuTu... hmmmm.... not sure....

YABU to have a baby just to call her Niko YANBU to change DD's by deed poll - no matter how old she is
YABU to call a new or old DD Niko
YANBU to have a different opinion to me

YANBU but I'm biased. The name of one of my German Shepherds is Nico!

lovemydog · 30/07/2010 23:40

Didn't Nico (Andy Warhol singer) die more than 20 years ago? I love "Sunday Morning" and "These Days" though.

atswimtwolengths · 30/07/2010 23:53

Christ, didn't realise she'd died, and so long ago! My brother lived in Brixton and there was a bit of a Brixton-Berlin connection going on and that's when they were friends.

This shows how long it is since I've had a conversation of more than ten minutes with him!

Neko Case from the New Pornographers? Great band.

atswim - I have just had to "google" her in case I had inadvertently killed her off - but yes, she died in 1988. I love "These Days" - "Don't confront me with my failures, I had not forgotten them . . ."

IMoveTheStars · 31/07/2010 00:04

Neko? As in cat?

enlighten us for the reason for this name?

Remember listening to Nico the morning after I'd been rohypnol'd.

Happy tiems.

Get a hamster. Cheaper, easier, won't give you stretch marks!

DontCallMeBaby · 31/07/2010 10:01

DD knows a (very naughty) boy called Niko/Nico.

seeker · 31/07/2010 10:02

Then you can have another one and call her Bernard. Or maybe twin girls - Bernard and Donald.

ThatVikRinA22 · 31/07/2010 11:33

done with hamsters.

and thats how we ended up with the dogs....

DD was 3. i got broody, so it was baby or dog.

DH said dog!

I used to like the name and then I went out with an utter twat called Niko. eurgh.

Gives me the creeps just thinking about him. When I was lying down kissing him etc he felt the need to position my arms and legs so that I didn't have a say in where they were. Not as in directing them to his penis, etc, just randomly moving them. Most wierd. I tend to like to be in control of what my body is doing. (don't know why you need to know that, but anyway ).

ThatVikRinA22 · 31/07/2010 12:50

but Niko is a boys name

Neko is a girls name. at least thats how it works in my head...

my plan B is to get DD to name her DD Neko (i may be overthinking this as she is only 13)
