I’m thinking along the lines of, Tarquin Hector, Giles, Miles , judging by his other children’s names, he likes to be out there in more ways than one😂. His other children’s names are very different Lara Lettice, Cassia peaches, Milo Arthur, Theodore Apollo , could there be a Horatio Starman

No need for that, just nasty.

I'm glad another poster thought Thomas after the hospital who allowed him to be here to witness the birth rather than the captain who walked. (Although do love that mans spirit!)

Someone on Twitter suggested 100000 Tests as the baby's name. So he could claim he had produced 100000 tests before the end of April...

Is the sprog's name down for Eton yet?

Not the way things are done now. He'll have to take, and pass, the same entrance exam as every other prospective pupil.

(Assuming the school still exists by then.)

My money is on Victor.

Poodles03 · 30/04/2020 17:33

''Octopus Pericles''. Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin

It better not be Victor. I don't want One Foot in the Grave forever sullied by that twat.

Actually, there's description that would fit Boris Johnson perfectly in One Foot in the Grave, where Victor says ''I just can't believe that last election result, it was like hiring a man-eating shark as your children's swimming instructor. Yes, he bit my baby's head off last time but I still think he deserves another chance''.

I veeeerry much doubt that! Pretty sure Eton, Windsor, harrow, Oxbridge all make exceptions for a few ...

PerditaProvokesEnmity · 30/04/2020 18:55

Headache, in ten years time he'll be the son of a former PM. They turn away far more exciting prospects.

And while the pre-test isn't definitive, a boy who didn't reach at least the lowest level of success in it would really struggle day to day in the school.

Who called Wilfred? Gold star! Wilfred Lawrie something Johnson apparently

Perfectly nice name

Crunchymum · 02/05/2020 13:45

Wilfred Lawrie Nicholas (Johnson)

Why do people need so many names?

Scruffyoak · 02/05/2020 13:47

Long name.

Millicent10 · 02/05/2020 13:56

Bookies favourite, they also called the Cambridgeshire’s offspring. How do they know these things?

The80sweregreat · 02/05/2020 13:57

Wilfred is nice.

Seelowbrown · 02/05/2020 14:00

Wilfred ? Not my cup of tea

Elderflower14 · 02/05/2020 14:03

Love the name... Same as my ds2!!

cardibach · 02/05/2020 14:04

On what planet is Wilfred nice?
I quite like old names but that one? It’s a family name though, I think.
Why not Lawrence? Using a short version for a middle name seems odd.

aquashiv · 02/05/2020 14:06

Dick Head after his father.

BovaryX · 02/05/2020 14:07

Wilfred is a lovely name.
