Kit, Wilfred or Diggory... If you hate all 3, stay away!

[Thirstysomething]

Any opinions? Am too tired to be slated if you hate them all! I think we might chicken out and do Diggory as a second name, but dh loves the nn Digger and we know a Diggory, so it probably seems less unusual to us than it might do to others!

[KateCroydon]

Love Kit (Kester/Christopher) and Diggory is a great middle name. Wilfred is a bit comedy.

[hawkmcqueen]

Love Kit as nn for Christian, just to throw that one out there. Christopher nice too. Then either of the other names would be nice as middle name:

(Kit) Christopher Diggory
(Kit) Christopher Wilfred

or even Christopher Wilfred Diggory

[birdofthenorth]

I love Kit. I thought I liked Wilfred but in reality when I met parents calling after a little Wilf it didn't quite fit for me. Not sure about Diggory but I quite like Digby!

[squoosh]

Kit is lovely.

I will politely refrain from commenting on the other two suggested names. I will say that I had a lovely Highland Terrier called Digger, best dog ever.

[TheRealFellatio]

Kit is nice the other two are awful. Digby is better than Diggory if you must have something diggy at all.

[cuillereasoupe]

I like Kit, not keen on Wilf. I was thinking of Diggory for my own DS due in October until my French partner pointed out it sounded like "dix gorilles"

[FingersCrossedLegsNot]

I love them all but have a real soft spot for Kit!

[valiumredhead]

Kit! Great name

[Still18atheart]

Think all three are great names but in order of preference
Kit
Diggory
Wilfred

[Bowlersarm]

Kit.

Great name.

Sorry but don't like the other two.

[mamaknows]

Has to be Kit for me, absolutely love it!

Not really as keen on the other two names though I'm afraid.

[EatYourCrusts]

I like Kit best.

[NobodyPutsTomArcherInTheCorner]

Kit. But as a nn for Christopher.

Big no from me for the other two though, sorry.

[JacqueslePeacock]

Kit short for Christopher. Much nicer than the other two I'd say.

[AKissIsNotAContract]

I like Diggory.

[willyoulistentome]

Kit's great. The other two - not so great.

[KnittedWaffle]

Kit!

[notso]

I LOVE Digby but DH vetoed, I think it's nicer than Diggory.

Kit is ok, but many, many mumsnetters love it.

Wilfred/Wilf don't like I much prefer Alfred/Alfie.

[squoosh]

I know a Digby and always think 'Biggest Dog in the World'.

[FoxyRevenger]

Oh, I love love love Kit. But I have a Kate so couldn't use it for DS.

Wilfred...not great.

Diggory...really, really no.

[Frettchen]

I love Diggory (have just named my puppy Digby and he gets called Digger some times)

Kit is also great, although as a previous poster said, Christopher might lead to 'Chris' or 'Topher' as NNs so be prepared in case it doesn't work out the way you want it to.

Not keen on Wilf/Wilfred.

[ZolaBuddleia]

I also wouldn't risk Christopher, as I hate Chris and Topher is pretentious in the extreme. Love Kit though.

Diggory - how close is your relationship to the one you know? It's so unusual, might they feel a bit like you've copied? Agreed, Digger is ace.

Wilfred - I only like Wilf, but I REALLY like it.

[JamieandtheMagicTorch]

Kit

Not Diggory. Awful (sorry, but I really think it's one of the worst names that has popped up on here)

[Thirstysomething]

Wow, ouch. Didn't think I really cared what other people thought about names - personal choice and all that. But slightly blinking at that.
