What do you call a baby with a seagull on his head?

deleted203 · 17/11/2012 00:02

Don't like either, TBH. Cliff is for old men. Rex is for dinosaurs....

No awful dreadful fowl

Ha! It's for my friend and she is having a standoff with her husband. Suggestions?

I actually know a Clifford. It may not be fashionable for babies at the moment but is a nice solid name imo.
Don't like Rex at all, sorry. Sounds so short and harsh.

claraschu · 17/11/2012 08:19

I like Clifford, with Cliff for a nickname.

I think Cliff is much better than Rex.

Rex sounds so much more like a dog or a dinosaur than a human.

Alisvolatpropiis · 17/11/2012 13:43

I think Rex is better out if the two.

squoosh · 17/11/2012 17:11

I adore the name Rex. Adore it.

Cliff is horrendous though, polyester trousers, sideburns, 'campari for the lady?'

RosannaBanana · 17/11/2012 17:14

Hahahaha... Seriously?

Dominodonkey · 17/11/2012 22:49

Think they are both awful but Cliff is a bit like Geoff and Geoff at my school (aged 12) wants to change his name as he gets teased for it.

Don't really like either Cliff or Rex. Rex reminds me of a dog's name. Cliff makes me think of Cliff Richard.

curiousgeorgie · 18/11/2012 00:51

I can't believe it took 16 posts for someone to say 'Richard'!!

Cliff??!! Seriously Confused Bloody awful.

Rex sounds like a dogs name although I'm not sure that I don't like it. Smile

Cliff is a great name.
