To call my twins Kensington and Chelsea even though we can barely afford to rent in Enfield

[ljrenf]

Ive always liked the name Chelsea but when I found out we were having twins I thought this would be a genius idea. My family is originally from around there (grandparents and great grandparents lived there) but its way too expensive for me these days.

Dh thinks its a bad idea but I'm really keen on it.

Deja And Vu?

It's not a joke thread ?

Shepherd and Bush.

OP, imagine shouting 'Kensington! Chelsea!' across a busy park... people would be eye rolling and laughing.

It's OK so long as their middle names are "Royal" and "Burov"

As a serious suggestion - I think the names would increase the chance of suicide, bullying, self-harm; etc.

But could be the making of them as slebs.

Harrow & Wealdstone? 'Harry' and 'Welly'?

Ellesse and Diadora were pictured in our local paper. This morning I heard a woman telling her friend that Armani's room needed decorating! But what about Mills and Boon - nice and unisex?
Abercrombie and Fitch
Flanagan and Allen

I took my ds to a play group about 5 years ago and was astonished to meet a child called Kensington. Even more surprisingly - the child was a girl (called Kenzie for short!) and the play group was in South Kensington. You just can't make it up. (If it's any explanation, the parents were American. I didn't pluck up enough courage to ask if she had any siblings and, if so, what they were called ...)

Nobody wants to spend the rest of their lives why their parents were complete twats in the naming department. Chelsea is chavvy and Kensington just ups the chavvyness. Neither of them are proper names ffs

ps. Anyone remember that woman who called her DD Ikea because she loved the shop so much

You could have Fitz and Rovia. West and Minster. The possibilities are endless.

There was a thread about a poster having a boy and her DP wanted to call the kid Washington. I wonder if she gave in.

Well if you want to stick to the place name theme, and you were having quads, then how about London, New York, Paris, Munich?

Scunthorpe and Arsenal. I've no idea how you would shorten these names.

Mince and Tatties comes to mind if you want a Scottish touch.
If you have another two you could call them Soup and
Pudding.

Of course she is joking.

Oxford and bond
Fulham and broadway

Thames and valley
London and baby
Westminster and abbey
London and bridge

Please don't do it OP. Wait until you have guinea pigs/goldfish & then you can go for it.

Do as Chris whatsisname the last governor of Hong Kong Patten, that's it.

Whisky and Soda.

Although, I think Gin and Tonic might be more appropriate.

i've always wanted to call my kids Fuck and Off.

In fact, I frequently do.

Ha ha.

Not really.
