[SarahScot]

Okay, okay, I know it's not PC to use the term 'chavvy' . . . but is it?

Fraid so....but if you like it,go for it!

yes i would say so

Yes

I would have to say yes as well, sorry.

it's so chavvy that chavs avoid it

No

Aye

Thanks for the honesty. Was DH's idea, tried to tell him it was naff.

Yes...sorry to any Kayla's out there.

yep it is

define chavvy?

I wouldn't say so.

Yep, chavvy.

Yes, a bit. I quite liked Shayla but DH vetoed it, possibly using the phrase "chavarama" (I disagreed, but thatvwas his gut reaction!)

whats a chavvy name?

Yes, and Kaya, Keira, and Kayleigh.

A bit, unfortunately.

yes

Is Keith a chavvy name then?

I would immediately think chav. It's not a horrible name but I know/know of a fair few girls named Kayla/Kyla and they are all "chavs".

Bear in mind I too am rather chavvy, as is my sister, yet both our names are often shortlisted by people on these threads for their own DC as they are "classic" names.

Chavvy is a terrible term but it implies that the name is associated with people of a certain socioeconomic status and even disliking the term, I know what it means. My sil defines herself as a chav and is fairly proud. She has one of those clown necklaces. I think that's like a badge.

My Irish friend has a Cadhla which is a similar sound. Prettier though.

Its an im better than you term pisses me right off

There was a little girl with this name at DD's nursery and she was absolutely gorgeous and not chavvy at all.
It wouldn't be my choice though.
