to call my baby (dr who related)

[biddysmama]

not call it (dr who related) cos thats ridiculous

Rose...if my ds1's name is Tyler ?

not because of the connection, just because thats the only name dh and i agree on

(ive already told ds1's name on the changing names thread, i wish i'd changed his )

Why not? It's a lovely name...I thought you were going to suggest Davros

As long as you always introduce them in age order I doubt anyone will notice.

DD1s middle name and our dogs name both came from Blakes 7

We didn't think DD2 would be too chuffed with Servalan though.

Rose is a lovely name

my brother has dc's called brad and jen

I wouldn't have known it had anything to do wit Dr Who. It's probably not as recognisable as calling your baby Frodo if your last name is Baggins

my two boys have the same names as a certain pair of brothers from The Archers.....

Doesn't so them any harm!

The Dr who thing will move on before their old enough for it to be relevant

Thank God, I thought you were going to ask if it was alright to call your child 'Tennant-Dalek' or something.

I think Tyler and Rose sound fine. Thought you were going to say you had plans to call your DC Raxacoricofalapatorius!

Fine to me. However I didn't get the connection between Luke and Leia who we used to live near, ntil DH pointed it out, nor could I understand why my Mum and Dad laughed at my friends baby George Harrison.

Rose Tyler is a lovely name and I wouldn't let the Dr Who connection put you off. Whatever name you choose could become the next huge thing in books or films anyway. There must be dozens of Harry Potters who had the name long before the books were written!

I once came across an Eliza, Freddy and Henry. Don't know if their mum was a My Fair Lady fan or not.

I have added Amelia to my fantasy baby name list mainly because of Dr Who

No problem at all with Rose for your DD and Tyler for your DS. The only people who will notice anything are Dr Who fans and they will just think it's cool! Plus as Trillian said you would usually introduce them separately or with the oldest (Tyler) first anyway.
My DD's middle name is Romana - DP is a HUGE Dr Who fan!!

If LO had been a girl his middle names would have been Martha Rose because of Doctor Who. Now I would add Amelia to the middle names as well (but not Donna because I cannot stand Catherine Tate).

I did threaten to call him Doctor John Smith Tardis Galifrey when it turned out he was a boy and even though I was joking it started to grow on me!

I once heard of a mother who gave birth to twins in the late 80s, a boy and a girl, and called them.... Kylie and Jason. Apparently, she regretted it a few years later.

Thank Goodness. Thought you were going to say Pond. There is nothing wrong with Rose and Tyler.

Sigh of relief... Thought you wanted to call your child Pond.

I thought it was going to be River Song
or Melody Pond

Go for it
I'm sure those Dr Who will be regarded as Classic episodes by then
