to think this is unfair?

[itsSantanaLopez]

Friends of ours are due their first baby any day soon. They've sent a email and announced the sex and said that they will announce the name when baby is born.

BUT

They've also the name 'will surprise everyone' and 'we'd appreciate it if you don't make any comments that aren't positive- this is our decision'.

What the fuck have they named this child? I am DYING to know. It's just unfair!

LostPelvicFloor nothing's wrong with Christopher Robin if you're 4 and look cute. Less good when you're 35 and have well and truly grown out of it.

Was Robin his last name then?

I'd second Knut / Cnut. Or Jesus, but pronounced the hispanic way: Haysoos.

Middle name Nigel.

ApprenticeViper

Loving Blackadder, and along the same theme why not call the poor little mite the baby Baldrick?

He was Christopher Robin Milne. I was called FirstNameMiddleName a lot when younger, by the posher end of the family.

I keep coming back to this thread to see if the name has been revealed yet as I'm DYING to know! Hope we are all out out of our misery soon!

wayne or Kevin.

I bet it's Benedict.

And I bet she won't have the baby til mid Feb after all this!

I'm voting Bear or Atticus.

It's not Aran is it? I've just found out someone I know has called their pfb Aran jumper

Or, to be culturally topical, Mandela, Nelson or Smaug?

Having read this thread scouring for ideas for DC2 due in May (though the only ones on our list that have appeared are Jaime and Christopher, though the latter would not be paired with Robin) I would like to add

Lightening
Mater
Francisco/Francesco

We've been watching a lot of Cars recently in our house...

I quite like Jaime, but can imagine the OPs friend thinking it's too "out there".

I suppose it's a bit like the rise in Harry's and a Hermione's after Harry Potter.

I wanted Hermione. Or Iris. We had a boy which saved Husband from vetoing my favorite girl names

I feel REALLY sorry for this baby. Can you imagine being given a name so bad you have to send out an email apologizing in advance for doing it?

Poor kid. Mind you I did know a girl called Muffreda once.

Maybe they've called him

Twerk
IKEA
Carrion
Cheese (yes a baby has been called Cheese)

I am actually only watching the thread to see if it's the same name i've picked for my baby who is due at the end of the month

Ooh yes IKEA would be good. Always has to be capitals too, otherwise it's spelt wrong.

I think the baby is to be called John Lewis.

I think Benedict is ok and I did actually know a man who's first name was John and last name - yep, you've guessed it - Lewis.

Did anybody suggest Hannibal?

Has anyone suggested Ichabod yet?

Plainjane. Yours made me snort!

As anyone said Dirk?

Has

Couple yrs back on facebook a friend had liked a comment ; ' 10,000 likes and my gf says she will name our baby megatron!'

I liked the comment too.

Ooh what about tarquin or farquar. I overheard a really posh english woman call her little shit son tarquin in salon i used to work in. He was scraping the paint off the walls.
