Ok, so we really thought we were set on Oscar Morgan but are starting to waver a bit as a few too many people har said its a dog or cats name and one person just thought it was 'strange'Hmm..

We have a Dylan and a Miles..

Ds3 due any day..

Opinions on Tyler Morgan pleaseSmile

My friend has a cat called John :)

Go for Oscar!

Tyler is a bit... iffy and well... others have said chavy. It's VERY 10 years ago.

AllRiseForHerVaj · 03/06/2012 09:00

Tyler was popular about 20 yrs ago on the rough council estate I grew up on, fwiw Grin

gnocci · 03/06/2012 11:23

Tyler is AWFUL. Agree with all above who have said chav / trash / rough council estate... couple it with Morgan and it's even worse...

Sorry.... Blush

Like Lucas and Oscar though :)

DairyNips · 03/06/2012 11:25

Ok so Tyler is outGrin

RIP Brian the catSmile

I actually much prefer Tyler to Oscar and Lucas - I have an irrational dislike for both of those names! However I wouldn't take my word for it as my DS's name is often considered chavy along with Tyler!

DairyNips · 03/06/2012 12:30

I think it depends who you know that has a name.. I considered Tyler as I Like Aerosmith and therefore Steven TylerGrin

Tyler is an awful name, its really chavvy. Sorry. Also think morgan is chavvy.
Oscar is lovely though.

TalHotBlond · 03/06/2012 12:42

Oscar and Lucas are both lovely choices but I'm not a fan of Tyler, sorry.

NarkedRaspberry · 03/06/2012 12:46

My family have always used 'human' names as dogs names. I do too. But only nice names. We wouldn't use Tyler for a dog.

DairyNips · 03/06/2012 13:16

I get that a lot of people think Tyler is chavvy.. Not sure why they think Morgan is thoughConfused Morgan Freeman is cool!

Not too bothered if some people consider Morgn chavvy though, it'll just be his middle name and I am in no way a chav so it doesn't really matterGrin

My dad's middle nameis Morgan (Welsh). It's a tricky one. I think if coupled with a non-chavvy name then you are ok ;)

NadiaWadia · 03/06/2012 15:59

Tyler is an occupation. and quite chavvy

BogeyNights · 03/06/2012 16:04

if you do decide on Oscar Morgan, I hope you're surname doesn't start with G. The initials will be OMG!!!

You need a 'musical' name to go with (Bob) Dylan and Miles (Davis), which Tyler does fit with...

Ps love the name Miles cos one of mine has that name.

usualsuspect · 03/06/2012 16:11

I like Tyler , don't like Oscar at all it's a bit semi detached land

AndWhenYouGetToThePalace · 03/06/2012 16:13

I like Oscar and Lucas much better than Tyler.

Ignore the pet name comments - they won't make them once the name is attached to your baby son!

usualsuspect · 03/06/2012 16:18

Ignore the 'chav' comments too

puds11 · 03/06/2012 16:49

Ignore them because you like the name Hmm
I have only ever known chavs called tyler. Fact.

usualsuspect · 03/06/2012 16:55

No ignore them because people who use the word chav are idiots, fact

puds11 · 03/06/2012 16:58

Well i know im not an idiot, so you are wrong.

bamboozledAardvark · 03/06/2012 16:59

Tyler's a lovely name, the only reason it's can be considered 'chavvy' is because it has been consistently popular for over a decade. If in that time around 15000 Tylers have been born of course you will have met one you might consider 'chavvy'. I can imagine the same will be said about Oscar in a few years time.

puds11 · 03/06/2012 17:03

Not really though beacuse names such as richard, benjamin and robert have been around for ages and have been exceedingly popular, and they arnt considered chavvy.

bamboozledAardvark · 03/06/2012 17:07

I don't think you can judge people on their names but Ricky and Bobby are no classier than Tyler IMO

usualsuspect · 03/06/2012 17:08

Coucil estate? White trash? Ffs
