Wilkie?

[meadowlarks]

Just a fantasy name that DP absolutely refused, but since I'm nearly due I thought I'd just see what the reaction would have been if I'd persuaded him. What do you reckon? Cool Americana or just plain odd?

Sorry, really doesn't work for me.

DP is very sensible!

no!

A definite no.It's a horrid name,though it's a slight improvement on Bamber.

Winkie as a NN?

Oh, frigg...I know, I know! Pahaha, guess the old DP was right then. We're sticking with Gilbert anyway

I like it as a mn, bot not a first name

Wilkie Collins for me also. It's interesting, but please stick with Gilbert!!

Sounds like a childrens word for penis.

gilbert is fantastic...

i was trying to convince everyone that Jezabel deserved a comeback when i was pregnant with DC1....

Huzzah for Gilbert love. Wilkie Collins was cool, hence my hormone-fueled assumption that any future Wilkies would be cool too.

Frigg - Pregnant or not, Jezebel would be a great name were it not for the whole "fallen woman/prozzie" look

HA! I KNEW IT

i knew it was a good name! strong,but pretty,good NN's....

damn the bible....it's screwed up my favourite name!

Love Jezabel!!! ...surely one day!!!

Wee Willie Winkie comes to mind

Sarah Jessice Parker named her son James Wilkie for Wilkie Collins. They actually call him "James Wilkie" apparently. I think it's a bit much, myself.

No - it's terrible. Sorry but it just is. I only think of Wilkie Collins and his name was actually William anyway. Wilkie was his middle name (and was taken from somebody else's surname).

not good at all.. definitely sounds like a name for penis

Muhuhaha, I suppose DP was right then...he will be smug when I tell him. It'd be a bit difficult to change the cot that DP's carved "Gilbert" on to anyway
