Bungle George works, or Bungle Geoffrey, Bungle Rod, Bungle Freddy or Bungle Zippy...

You're joking, right?

ThePieSmuggler · 01/11/2011 23:53

I really don't like it, apart from the Rainbow connection it also conjures up an image of a bumbling oafish type of person. Sorry. However if you love it then that's all that matters.

Honestly??? Poor little mite Sad

CheeseandGherkins · 01/11/2011 23:55

Bungle? Really?

Clary · 01/11/2011 23:57

Is this a wind-up?

Sorry OP and sorry to any Bungles out there, but please don't call your son this.

It just means mistake. Why would you do it?

KatieMiddIeton · 01/11/2011 23:57

Hahahahaha! hahahahaha! hah!

hehehehehehehehhehehehe

BustersOfDoom · 02/11/2011 00:06

To go with his siblings Zippy and George perhaps?

I dearly hope this is a wind up.

Shock
frutilla · 02/11/2011 00:29

How about Mungo. Similar sort of sound but more mainstream...

frutilla · 02/11/2011 00:30

Or Benjy?

ChippingInAutumnLover · 02/11/2011 00:38

Lovely name - middle names George Zippy of course.

workshy · 02/11/2011 00:38

very unusual surname too, what about morph, pob or gordon?

KatieMiddIeton · 02/11/2011 00:59

Doh! Just realised there's a liklihood Bungle is a boy dog. If he's a big shaggy one I think it's nice.

Middle names pos a bit much for a dog but each to their own.

frutilla · 02/11/2011 01:05

How about Bunsen, after the inventor of the bunsen burner...

Joolyjoolyjoo · 02/11/2011 01:08

Whit???? Wind-up I take it? Otherwise why, just why?

Popbiscuit · 02/11/2011 01:13

I love it!!!! Of course any future siblings must be called Zippy (totally unisex so works for a boy or a girl).

MollyTheMole · 02/11/2011 01:25
Hmm

"However if you love it then that's all that matters."

Actually, no. Sometimes, no, that's not all that matters. This is indeed one of those times.

Someone's been on the Wine

Purplebuns · 02/11/2011 08:59

I assume your joking, of all the nice names in the world you are thinking of Bungle George ffs

MummysLittleSunbeams · 02/11/2011 09:40

This is a piss-take right?

Dillydollydaydream · 02/11/2011 09:44

Nooooo to Bungle!
