I'm 23 weeks with ds3 and have a Finlay (Fin) and Isaac (Ike) already and would LOVE the name Dziga (Zig, Ziggy) for number 3.

Have always thought I should give a name that would work as a grown up in a professional job situation or work as a chilled out Cornish surf bum (we live on the beach!)

Problem is dh is nervous about using a name that isn't well known...

Please don't say anything too horrid about the name Dziga coz I'm a big spotty hormonal mess and I might cry! Wink

JaquesTouatte - I'm with you..As a teacher, I would see that name on a new register before meeting the class and I would just think Oh God - so, he has a mum and dad who are the 'trying too hard to be different' types..Sorry!

Just wanted to add that I LOVE Ike as a nn for Isaac. Was our only boys name choice for dc3- who turned out to be a girlSmile

I am loving Sigmund more than Dziga, an Jago more than both.

It does look a bit 'try-hard'.

Finlay and Isaac are lovely names. How about Fred(erick), Rufus, Felix?

What about Zachary Igor. That could evolve organically Wink Wink into Ziggy.

But Dziga? Confused

Isaac and Zachary? Too similar. Zachary/Zac is so boring anyway!
