That's what Mark Owen of Take That fame has called his baby girl!

I like India. But Fox sounds like a boy's name

squoosh · 25/07/2012 16:00

Yeah, Fox sounds more masculine to me too. She's going to hear hundreds of heee-larious 'you're lookin' Foxy' type jokes throughout her life.

Fox India Owen sounds a bit like police alphabet too doesn't it?

Ham69 · 25/07/2012 17:00

I do love Mark Owen but Fox India sounds like a TV channel.

LynetteScavo · 25/07/2012 17:05

I too like India, but think Fox sounds like a boys name.

exoticfruits · 25/07/2012 17:12

I think that as she gets older she will insist on India.

How on earth can you love Mark Owen? Seriously! A lying cheating scumbag

5madthings · 25/07/2012 17:19

is this with his girlfriend/partner who he cheated on, or has he got a new partner, i think they already had 2 boys?

anyway i like fox but would say its for a boy, india is fine tho :)

People tend to retain a soft spot for the object of their teenage longing.

Personally he's always been too pixie-like for my tastes.

Dogsmom · 25/07/2012 17:22

Not keen on Fox either, especially for a girl, she'll need to be a stunning woman to carry off that name

Not sure who he is, but that 'name' is bloody awful!

squoosh · 25/07/2012 17:27

He always looked as though butter wouldn't melt either. That must be why all these women fell for it.

PantsOnFiore · 25/07/2012 17:32

does sound like 'Tango Bravo' or something...

Lisaro - you don't know who he is??? Shock

singaporeswing · 25/07/2012 17:32

His eldest is Elwood and the middle one is Willow so I just assumed they would be going along with the "L" "O" "W" type theme. Fox sound quite short and sharp compared to her siblings' names and sounds very masculine.

ElephantsAndMiasmas · 25/07/2012 17:36

Presumably they would have gone for Foxtrot Oscar for a boy.

PuffPants · 25/07/2012 17:36

Hey Foxy baby!

? Doesn't sound quite right, does it?

MyMelody · 25/07/2012 17:37

Seems to be a bit of a trend at the moment with celebs going for masculine sounding girls names.

MammaTonic · 25/07/2012 17:38

Yes, and he's a fucking numpty!

Seriously, it's an awful name

Francagoestohollywood · 25/07/2012 17:44

Lol, it does sound like police alphabet!

RubyFakeNails · 25/07/2012 18:56

I like masculine girls names but I'm sure I've met or seen a boy called Fox, maybe its because its more an aggressive type animal.

India is nice though.

shimmy0 · 25/07/2012 20:17

Typical bloody celebrity

Mintyy · 25/07/2012 20:18

Ack! Awful.

Ham69 · 26/07/2012 01:58

For the record, "squoosh", he certainly was not the object of my teenage longing. I was always a Barlow fan, myself! I think Mark has always come across as a lovely, down to earth bloke with a quirky northern voice. Always been a not so in the closet Take That fan. And, yes, it was outrageous what he did. But his 'poor' wife has chosen to go on and have a third child with him. I'm not (well probably am actually) making excuses for him, but have any of us been in the position he was in? Not sure I could have kept it all together, either. Good luck to them and their baby Fox Asia, Sky sports, or whatever her name is.

msrantsalot · 26/07/2012 02:02

Fox Mulder, as in mulder and sculley. Hope shes not too "homely" poor kid

Margerykemp · 26/07/2012 02:15

Poor kid
