I LOVE the name of my ds, but he has it. I don't like any other. Sad

This child is going to be nameless.......

I had this problem with ds2. Had to pick a name that I wasnt 100% in love with but thats his name & we've shortened it to a cheeky nn.
Sorry thats no help but just wanted to sympathise.

ScoutJemAndBoo · 04/02/2012 18:35

Well, what about Chandler? Grin

sticking with Friends you could have Joey, or Paul or Ben, all other characters.

Or let me pick the name for you.

ATruthUniversallyAcknowledged · 04/02/2012 18:36

No-one's going to suggest their own DC for fear you'll say you hate it are they? Grin

Right, wide variety...

William
Dylan
Isaac
Ethan
Jayden
Jonathan
Andrew
James
Noah
Fred

Which do you hate the least? That'll give us a starting point!

SoozyWoozy · 04/02/2012 18:54

Gunther :o

StarlightMcKenzie · 04/02/2012 18:59

Maybe it isn't that I hate them, more that I can't see HIM iyswim!

And we've been through all those and none strike me as right (sorry).

Give him the same name is DS1

Give him a girls name

Just call him 'Junior' or by his surname until he's old enough to choose him own name

Call him Starlight Mckenzie Surname - That is a great name

every Ross I know has a brother called Craig, if that helps?

PosieParker · 04/02/2012 19:40

If I had a little boy tomorrow he would be Humphrey and DS3 was nearly called Oslo.

silverfrog · 04/02/2012 19:43

oh, snap, Starlight (well, without having a ds already!). at least I've got a little longer than you to figure it out.

and I've used all the girls names I like (dds have 3 each, also have a step daughter).

and it has to work in at least 2 other languages, and go with a foreign surname.

I am struggling, to say the least.

will browse the thread for inspiration.

:

Dominic
John
erm, can't think of any others right now!

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/02/2012 19:49

Well, I have two dds but had they been boys they would have been:
Laurence Asher or Rowan Asher - any good?

Ds is Ross, yes? I don't watch Friends so don't understand your dino thing.

I like Ross.
