And I bloody love the horrified reactions more than the delighted ones:

What???
Oh my god that's a mouthful isn't it?
Is that a name? Oh, I'd call him 'xxx'

It's not even that out there, I think people are just rude, but it cracks me up

Interesting that you’re apparently brave enough to give your kid a “marmite” name but you’re not brave enough to write it on an anonymous forum….

My kids have names that people seem to love or really hate. They’re all traditional welsh names. I do get a bit of a kick out of the way some people react. 😂

What name is it?
Do you think he will be amused or upset by people's reactions when he is older?
