Wilbert

[pygmy]

I've just discovered the name Wilbert and I think I love it. What do you think?

Isn't it slang for being a bit stupid?

I don't have words strong enough for how bad it is. It even makes Klay look er well not good exactly, but less bad.

pygmy, no! I already told you on your other thread to go with Cosmo!

Both parts of the name aren't great - Wil/Willy or Bert!

Cosmo is SO much nicer and cooler!

No. Sounds like a goldfish. I think Albert is lovely though so maybe I am not very consistent on this.

Also makes me think of Dilbert, but that probably won't be a thing for the generation born now. Although Dilbert is kind of timeless so you can't rely on that...

Wilbert is a silly name - go with Cosmo, it's fab.

Ok, point taken!

It sounds very wet.

Wilbur is better.

I second Wilbur - love that name. Arthur has made a comeback so why not Wilbur?

Haha. I have a Wilfrid and a Robert, but even to someone with form like mine Wilbert is dreadful!

Still think Cosmo better (well I would, wouldn't I, having one myself!) but I do like Wilbur (NOT Wilbert which I have never heard of). There is one in my son's nursery and he is gorgeous.

Its horrible.

Nope. Wilbur is very very very cool (on list but DH is having none of it plus BIL is Will). Wilfred also equally as cool.

Yes Wilbur and Wilfred are both great, but Wilbert just doesn't work so well.

I have got a wilberforce and I call him this.

I don't like Wilbur, Wilfred, William or Wilbert - it's the Wil part that is too close to Willy .
