So today I came across a little girl named Wilde...

[YoniSingWhenYoureWinning]

Presumably after Oscar. But for fuck's sake!

Could have been after Kim

I quite like that.

I think that's beautiful.

I think that's actually quite nice...

It's lovely.

Could be unfortunate with the wrong surname though...

I met a girl called Winsome yesterday.

I rather like it. Strong. Bucks the trend for frilly, 'girly' names.

I know a little girl called Sloane and would never have thought of it as a name before her - but on her, it's beautiful and fits perfectly.

I know one baby with this as a middle name, it was her mother's maiden name.

As long as she isn't on the heavy side and her surname isn't Beest she'll be ok.

I've met a two year old called Wilder/Wylder- not sure of spelling. Seemed really odd at first but has grown on me.

Countess there's a Sloane who works in our local Co-Op. I'd never heard the name before either.

Wilde isn't terrible - I wouldn't choose it myself though.

I think I quite like it. With my accent it would be pronounced 'whiled' (one syllable), while (sorry!) where I live it would be 'Why-ulled'. Not so keen on that.

Re: Sloane. If they were born post-1986ish, maybe they were named after Sloane Peterson (the gorgeous Mia Sara), who was Ferris Bueller's girlfriend?

Its awful and chavy.

Oh come on, you can't call a child 'Wilde'. Some parents are completely bonkers and chavvy

I teach mum/baby reading. Never came across. Wilde (love it) but I've got FOUR Hamishes this year!

I've met a Wylie. Adorable girl but I couldn't adjust my feelings about the name to suit.

I don't think girls have to have frilly names but there are loads of lovely names to give your beautiful newborn instead of a rather dull surname.

Sorry but Sloane is an ugly name, even as a surname.

And Wilde is just bizarre. It's an adjective, FGS!
