That's it really, what are your thoughts? It would be Floyd James. Thanks!

This is Floyd. But he's a cool dude, so don't let that put you off.

Friend of mine called her son this. Big Pink Floyd fan! I think it's wicked

nightowlmostly · 06/04/2012 19:57

Cool, gotta love the muppets!

Yep, love Pink Floyd, one of the reasons I think it's a cool name. But not too out there, even though it's not very common.

I think it's kind of ugly. I don't like Lloyd either. No offence meant, I just think it's an unattractive sounding name. Good luck to you though.

Horrid. It has an unpleasant sound.

nightowlmostly · 06/04/2012 20:05

Oh no, it was going so well! It's all just a matter of taste I suppose!

I have a Lloyd. Smile Good strong name

WithACherryOnTop · 06/04/2012 20:08

Sorry.I just can't imagine looking at a newborn and thinking 'I'll name you Floyd'.

WithACherryOnTop · 06/04/2012 20:09

Lloyd is better. I think I could picture a little Lloyd.

Even if you like Pink Floyd, are you prepared for years of "as in pink?" comments?

Fun,but a real boxer's name [busmile]

nightowlmostly · 01/05/2012 07:44

Well, we went with it, and Floyd he is! Hopefully he won't end up being a boxer...

Great name, congratulations

Love it- this was DH's only suggestion when I was pregnant, apparently he knew a bloke at uni called Floyd and always thought it was a cool name. I wasn't sure at first but it really grew on me, I love the idea of a little Floyd!

In the end we had 2 girls, so it's on the list for if we ever get a dog...
