Monty?

[doitorelsa]

Just spotted it in another thread, DH likes it too (miracle). Have a Caspar already. What think you?

Monty Knobsqueak. Is what it makes me think of.

Please don't do it!!

Who is Monty Knobsqueak?? Doesn't sound good...

I like it, but then I know a totally charming 6 yo Monty...

My lovely cat is called Monty.

Sorry but I don't like it. It's a bit wet.

I think you'd get fed up of "The Full Monty" jokes too.

I really like it and we considered it - but weren't really convinced it was 'us' if that makes sense.

I think it goes very well with Caspar.

Monty for a black labrador - otherwise not keen

ah, thanks. I am liking it more and more, though I did know a yorkshire terrier named it once. I'm sure that'll fade though.

Love it.

Love it,
but having seen Withnail and I, everytime I hear Monty, it's followed by "you terrible c&*t" in my head.

I know 2 under the age of 2 (one Montague, one Montgomery). It's not really my cup of tea but I can see why some people like it.

It's awful. Utterly wet.

Oh I absolutely love Monty! would you use just Monty or use a full version? Like Montague, Montgomery ...

I like it enormously but only because of Monty Don.

I do not like Casper - its too fey and associates with uber posh / alternative schooling.

There was a little boy at nursery called Monty - the first time I heard it I was very but he was such a lovely kid, full of fun and really, really sweet that I like it now. I don't think it's 'me' enough to call a child of mine that, but for other people I like it

Thanks everyone, very mixed. I am not sure basde on these. Cheers for your comments on the name of my exisitng DS anonymosity, I'll be sure to pop out and change it this afternoon. You spelt it wrong too

Reminds me of 'monty the dog with glasses'.

I think I would prefer it if it was short for something.

Having said this I do think that it goes well with Caspar

Oh don't be offended - you can't please everyone all the time. I must have misread your post though because I'd have been polite enough not to say it if I'd realised. Nobody likes my name either and no one can say it correctly, ever.

My friend's dog is Monty

I like Caspar and Magnus.

Oh, and BTW I love Caspar, it is really unusual without being at all weird.

It's is delightfully out there!

Our gerbil is called Monty.

There are several little Tarquin- esque Montys in our area

My handsome spaniel is Monty . Caspar is fab. What about Titus?
