Our little man has arrived but he is destined to be nameless!

[MuddlingThroughItAll]

DS5 arrived yesterday at 9:54 pm (two and a half weeks early!) and with his scatty parents no where near choosing a name! After meeting him though we have narrowed it down to two combinations, both of which we love. They are -
Jeremiah Hendrix
Rudy Hendrix
(Hendrix being a middle name not our surname)
As we love them both we really want to get a wider perspective and see what others opinions are - we have already asked the midwife what her favourite is!

Rudy

yes we use rudilicious as well

go for rudi(y) op its a fabulous name

Use one this time and keep having babies til you get another boy to use the other

We're just so torn, we can't make a decision as we know that when we do we will regret it and wish we had gone for the other :(

Meg, I think 5 boys is enough for us :o

Rudy Hendrix you HAVE to!

I can tell you from experience it works beautifully.

Another vote for Rudy(i) :)

I would never make the connection with rude boy myself but then I grew up with boys called Ruud :)

If you call him Rudy [i] you get to call him Rudylicious.......

Just sayin'

what did your midwife say? ours LOVED the name Rudi, he didnt have a name till he was two weeks old as it took us a while to choose, its an important decsion. can you not have jeremiah as a middle name also? Rudi(y) jeremiah hendrix sounds good to me

All the other boys only have one though..At this moment in time we are actually seriously considering using Hendrix and a first name, nn Hendy. Would he be tormented and bullied for life if that was his name? I do love it but kids can be cruel!

I dont really buy into the bullying thing tbh. Kids will take the piss out of any name.

John or Joe have both been turned into reasons for taking the micky and you cant get much more mainstream.

Go with what you like. People only usually say rude things about names before you use them.

Midwives loved the name.

OH's family got it into their collective heads that we named him RUBY

Took bloody months to sort that out.

Rudy

We're going to have a long think about it tonight (when we have time!) and will hopefully come to a decision. Will let you know what we choose!

I watched The Specials live last night and Message to you Rudy is the reason why I love the name!! Its a fab name. If it helps, the only othere rudy's Ive come accross have been Jewish. Hardly in the hood.

Congratulations. I vote for Hendrix!

Congratulations! That is a tough decision, they are all great names. If it were me I would go for Jeremiah but go with your instincts! Good luck and enjoy time with your little boy :)

would swing it for me!!! Love Jeremiah and Jem is such a cool NN.

Congratulations - (are you willing to share the names of your other boys? I only ask because I'm willing to bet they are great!)

kitya was that in Coventry? Well Jell [envy}

petit, our other DSs are Darwin Silas, Gabriel Wolf (Wolfie), Heath Cassian and Shay Orlando :)

I like both but prefer Jeremiah....good luck and congratulations!

You've had a name change haven't you I can't remember your old name, but I do remember discussing Darwin Silas in the past!

I'm not especially keen on either tbh but as we've discussed before - none of your names are ones I'd choose and you'd hate my choices That's what makes the world turn really isn't it!!

I prefer Rudi (with the i rather than the y - but whichever) but I do think Jeremiah goes better with your other boys names - so I suppose it depends how much that bothers you... Hendrix is even worse than the other two IMO

No name change Chipping, I only joined a couple of weeks ago! (This isn't my first thread though)

Jeremiah without a dobut the other just to me sounds incomplete (they will spend their life being asked " what is that short for?")

Jem hendrix

well my Rudi is 3 and a half and in that time we have been asked maybe once or twice if it is short for anything.
