This came up in one of today's threads. It's not a name I've previously thought much about but I think I really like it.

What do you think of it?

One of the tweenies. Otherwise nice.

I like it, but that purple rubber doofus from the Tweenies puts me off a bit.

RightUpMyRue · 14/10/2011 18:27

Love it. Don't care about tweenies.

I know a three year old and a one year old called milo. Really like it.

LOVE IT. My three year old is called Milo. Only ever hear the Tweenies mentioned on baby name threads - never in real life.

Drink, chocolate.

Fixture · 14/10/2011 19:09

I like it :)

I've never seen Tweenies, but lots of characters have human names and it doesn't make the name any less likeable!

LetThereBeRock · 14/10/2011 20:22

Love it.

My favourite book as a child has the best Milo ever (have planned to use this name for nearly 30 years, but DH doesn't like the nameSad):

I totally love it. Was high up on the list for DS1. Funnily enough he ended up in a class with a Milo, would have been odd to have two of them. (But then it turned out we used to live in the same house, but at different times, obviously, Hmm)

comedaygoday · 14/10/2011 22:02

I don't like it. It seems a bit meh and I think it'll date horribly.

LillianGish · 14/10/2011 22:06

Lovely name, but there are a lot of them around.

Yawner247 · 14/10/2011 22:08

Ace name.....for a dog!!!! We have a spaniel called milo! Milo was a chocolate drink, the name of a tweenie and the name of the dog in the mask!!! Grin

flowery · 14/10/2011 22:10

DS2 is Milo, I think it's a very cool name. We always get comments on it and haven't come across others.

SausageSmuggler · 15/10/2011 21:15

I love it but DH doesn't :( annoyingly it also goes really well with DS's name but i'm not going to get to use it.

onwardandupwards · 15/10/2011 21:31

our dog is called milo!!!

choppychopster · 15/10/2011 21:39

18 mo DN is called Milo. Not keen on it myself - still associate it with tweenies and chocolate malt drink.
