Isn't it a catheter?

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 23/11/2011 19:43

Don't like it at all, sorry.

sprinkles77 · 23/11/2011 19:47

its the name of a procedure to revise dodgy episiotomies. No way!

Don't like surnames for first names. Would you call a baby Smith or Jones?

SecretNutellaFix · 23/11/2011 20:01

Prefer Fintan myself.

Rhubarbgarden · 23/11/2011 20:14

I like Fenton

HarrietSchulenberg · 23/11/2011 20:39

I used to spend a lot of time in a pub in Leeds called The Fenton. Nuff said.

notso · 23/11/2011 20:40

I really like it, it is a family surname. DH won't entertain it though.

MelinaM · 23/11/2011 23:14

Sorry but I really don't like it ...

Montsti · 24/11/2011 09:04

Not a fan I'm afraid...

CocktailQueen · 24/11/2011 11:29

Sorry, not for me either...

ShengdanRoad · 24/11/2011 11:52

Chavalicious. IIRC, it's the name of Patsy Palmer's son. QED.

notso · 24/11/2011 12:12

Patsy Palmer isn't actually Bianca you know.

It's too unused to be common.

Use it OP, Fintan is not as nice.

NewsClippings · 24/11/2011 12:13

Too surnamey for me, sorry.

first1 · 24/11/2011 12:59

ShirleyKnot · 24/11/2011 13:00

Oh NO you can't!

MelinaM · 24/11/2011 14:42

Lol! Right, well I shall pop Fenton on the back burner for the time being and come back to it later! Smile

Fintan sounds like something tropical sharks might get.

DandyDan · 24/11/2011 18:21

Fenton is the name of the Hardy Boys' dad.

A1980 · 26/11/2011 22:06

NO!

Fentons is the name of a HUGE personal injury firm of solicitors. Their crap adverts are on tv all day.
