DP actually suggested...

[peachyyy]

STUART!

Can you imagine? He didn't speak to me for a few hours after I burst out laughing in his face and asked, incredulously: "what man, in this day in age, would call their son Stuart?"

My brother and his wife were considering Colin

Colin is a brilliant name! I know a teen Colin and he is beyond cool.

These kinds of names will be the granny chic fashion for our grandchildren.

I know. Having typed it I realised I quite like it. And Stuart.

He even said that it should be spelt with a u to avoid nn "Stewie" (wha??)... I think of Stuart Little, the thick irish soup and Disco Stu from The Simpsons. No way. It's vetoed. haha

My dad suggested Alan for my DS on the grounds that when he met men called Alan at the golf course they were always nice chaps

Baby Alan.

I really like the name Stuart, if I was a boy I would have been Stuart!

I know someone with two sons, one named Leander and the other named Rafael Jett :S

Just hoping this person isn't on mumsnet...

Haha I've often thought if the day will come again when Colin, Dennis, Alan, Clive all make a reappearance. Quite like Stuart though, doesn't seem old n certainly won't be common x

Maybe I just know too many middle-aged IT managers with moustaches called Stuart...

Ha ha Quangle. It's true, all Alans are nice.

Dennis is a great name! I'd consider it.

I quite like Stuart...

Stuart. Stuey is a fab nn

I don't really understand what's wrong with Stuart.

I like Stuart. But then my DS (1 year) has got a name that hasn't been popular since the 70's... So I am biased

I like Stuart.

Well there is no way I am showing him this thread, he'll feel vindicated.

:-) Oh dear. That's DH's name. And he's middle-aged and in IT. No moustache though....

(Don't tell him I said so, but I don't really like the name...)

Oops. Forgot where I was. That should be a

Get orf my name OP

There's a baby Alan at DDs nursery. None of the other toddlers can pronounce it they all call him Alum

I like it too

Good, traditional name which doesn't sound dated to me......

I like Clive. Has a certain something. Clovis is better.
Colin is a pigeon toed geek no no.

But Stewart is a bit Rod, isn't it? A bit of a blond hound?

My son is due in November and his second name will be Little. About 40 times a day I get "OH, YOU SHOULD CALL HIM STUART!! LOLOLOL." Stabby stab stab.

What is wrong with Stuart? really. Kevin, not so much, though it is rather popular in Germany, due to Costner.

I have a Stuart, I know others as well, but not all that common, I'm in Scotland so perhaps more popular here.
