Baby boy with initials WC...

...is this a bad idea? He will have middle names too (as yet undecided) but I seem to recall from school that we would sometimes have to use just our first and last initials (can't remember why). Will he be teased, do you think?

I discarded my perfect girl's name because it would have left her with the initials WC, think it's probably a bad idea myself!

Thanks, I fear you're right. Perhaps it can be a middle name...

Yes, we decided against the W as a first name as would have been WC. We surrounded it with other letters and actually prefer the first name we chose now.

Thanks, everyone - I will be a little sad to rule out the name as it has family associations, but it can still be a middle name and there are other names I love (plus, the baby could be a girl and all this will be redundant!).

Bad idea, sorry.

Yes I was at primary school with a girl whose initials were WC and frankly that fact and her name are all I can remember about her! Not a great idea, sorry.
