Does anyone know the Uk list?

feetheart · 08/05/2013 06:56

Wow, both DC's names are on there which is a first (DD's on second 50 list).
Shame they don't like Coke :)

KenDoddsDadsDog · 08/05/2013 07:24

soyo they have lots of Celtic / Gaelic names on the NI / ROI ones - I got Eóin, Cormac , Orla, Caoimhe on my hunt yesterday for the family. My name was even there.

TheOneWithTheHair · 08/05/2013 07:37

None but a couple of abbreviations we don't use.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 08/05/2013 07:41

The names that will be on there will obviously be the top 50 or so most popular names in New Zealand. Coke want to make money from this so obviously they'll only print the most common names.

None of our names are on there but we chose names that were not overused/common so I hope they're not on there Smile.

monica77798 · 08/05/2013 12:55

I am confused, is this in the UK, or just Australia and New Zealand? All the promotional stuff about it seems to be from down under

Secondme · 08/05/2013 16:46

1/4 but he has a really common name. 2 have abbreviations that we never use and other one not at all, but not a chance.

Dillydollydaydream · 08/05/2013 16:51

My name is on there but dh and the 3ds aren't.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 08/05/2013 16:58

It's UK and Ireland this summer. One of my mates just got a Jemima!

JackieTheFart · 08/05/2013 17:02

Mine, all 4 DSs are on that NZ list. DH isn't.

I really want one!!

KenDoddsDadsDog · 08/05/2013 17:28

They are everywhere !

Abbreviations only in this house!
Mind you, I can only ever find abbreviations of my name - the joys of hyphens! Lol

MadameJosephine · 08/05/2013 20:50

DS's name is there in full and shorter versions of mine, DP's and DD's

The website is not up yet, it can't be top names though and could be regional. Have got my whole team at work obsessed today - we got a Brian , Rob , Steven and Stephen in Asda!

UK List

OP posts:
QueenofDreams · 12/05/2013 09:13

Ok, on both those lists DP's name is there in abbreviated form. DS DD and I are not there. Mind you I never get anything with my name on because it's a rarely used Dutch name Grin

GwendolineMaryLacey · 12/05/2013 09:15

Me, DH and DD2 are on. Poor DD1 will never get a named anything even though her name is pretty normal

Tortoise · 12/05/2013 09:16

Only DS1 is on the UK list. Not surprised though really.

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 12/05/2013 09:21

Mine was on the NZ list but only an abbreviation on the UK list. DH is on both and DD is on the UK list only. She's only one, don't know whether its sad to go out and find it for her!! Grin
