Bay

[Cinderellarach]

Bay for a boy.Lovely or awful?

A friend just text to say they'd had a son - called Samson.

Thought of you. Perhaps Samson is not as unusual as I thought it was.

Afraid I do not like Bay.

I quite like Bay. Toyed with it as a middle name for DS.

(It really doesn't work as a middle name though as it makes the first name sound like a beach, regardless of what the name is!)

It's also not good if your surname begins with B. Bay B.

I know a little girl named Bay. And it reminds me of horses, too.

I think Rocco is great - I know a lovely Sicilian man named Rocco.

Imagine he is 40 and has just turned up for a very serious business meeting and he is introduced....does Bay work with that? It sounds more like a surfer than an accountant which may be a good thing, but what if he turns out to be an accountant?

awful!

I quite like it but it reminds me of horses.

Sorry.

Bay is ds2's nn (despite being nothing like his real name ). I like it as a nn for a 2yo, but I'm less keen as a proper name for a teenager or adult.

I love it. What happenned to Beau?

I like it but it sounds better for a girl to me sorry.

Hmmmm, I'm not sure. I don't hate it but I don't love it either. Like the other post above I think it's just a bit "meh".

i have no idea why i like it but i do

Gypsycurlytots-Dh hates Beau thought I'd change his mind and it didn't work.

For now we're calling him Rocco.DH calls him Rocky
We can't get him registered untill the middle of august.
For some random reason I like Bay but I seem to like names that are not 'normal'..

Thanks rimmer08.One day I call him Bay the next Rocco.Talk about confusing the poor little mite

Glad you decided on a name Cinderellarach.

Thanks Kath!

What about Bailey shortened to Bay? Just an idea

I really like Rocco; it's cool.
I'm afraid Bay might be called Babe or Baby -one thing we all seem to agree on is that other kids can be cruel.

I like it for either a boy or a girl

Nice but abit meh.Reminds me of Kai.

Don't like it. Fine if it's short for something but not as a standalone name
