Herbie

[JojoMags]

A friend has just named her DS Herbie (Herbie, not Herbert, is his full name). Purely out of interest, what do people think?

Don't like Herbert, Hubert or Herbie at all, I'm afraid.

pinkylulu I called my son Herbie in 2009 and am very pleased he is rather unique!! 1 of 8 .... all other traditional names are sooo common now.

I love it and we seriously considered using it but have now got a different name.

Herbie is a brilliant name.

My son is 4 and a half and he is called Herbie. Like Herbie Hancock, the jazz musician...or the car, whatever you remember when you hear the name. We just really like the name. We also thought it was quite unusual and then last year discovered that there is another Herbie in his nursery class and they also both have the same middle name (which is a traditional name). Anyway, we mainly call him Herb and I hope that we can bring him up with enough self esteem to cope with having an unusual name and not be embarrassed.

Tiger Lilli & 442442 - All the best people have babies called Herbie! Can not believe that there are 2 Herbie's at your nursery! Madness.
