Pear cider round here.

No idea at all who Kevin and Perry are Confused

As I have young teens/tweens I immediately thought 'where's Perry' which is I guess a good connection. Also perry to drink and then Kevin and Perry (always rather liked Perry).

However aside from that Perry and Phoebe are for me just much too similar.

Awful.......really truly awful.....and isn't it a brand of crisps?

Kevin and...

Ham69 · 30/09/2012 10:07

Phoebe's such a lovely classic and classy name.
Perry on the other hand ........
Sorry, no. And I immediately think of Kathy Burke "fank you please Mrs. Patterson"

Surname or a drink.

StellaAndFries · 30/09/2012 16:42

I like Perry, it's my bil's name and I think it's unusual without being outlandish.

iseenodust · 30/09/2012 16:46

Like it and I'm not one for try hard names.

Viviennemary · 30/09/2012 16:48

I think it's a dire name. Sorry.

I really like it, but would use Peregrine with Perry as NN

amck5700 · 30/09/2012 17:22

What about Piers or Miles instead? Similar feel but not so rythmy.

Dogsmom · 30/09/2012 18:42

I thought of Kevin & Perry too but it's my 'era', I've only met one Perry and she was a girl.

Perry is a bit girly sounding, even though I know it was a boys name first.

I love Peregrine though Confused

HiHowAreYou · 02/10/2012 13:18

I quite like it but I think it's too similar to Phoebe really.

sonniebonnie · 02/10/2012 14:20

I like Perry short for Peregrine.

ThickCut · 02/10/2012 14:37

I immediately think of Perry mason

Would probably be shortened to Pez as a nn

It's ok..but there are nicer names imo
