It's a lovely name!

shockers · 13/09/2013 15:00

I hate the word 'chavvy'.

I like the name Megan though.

enderwoman · 13/09/2013 15:03

As long as she's not spelling it Megggan or something equally made up its fine.

minipie · 13/09/2013 15:11

LEM are you the cousin??

I like the name Megan

elcranko · 13/09/2013 16:20

Megan is a lovely name.

GwendolineMaryLacey · 13/09/2013 16:22

Where did the OP say that she personally was calling the name chavvy? Or questioning her cousin's choice? Hmm

Love the name, I had a horse ( Welsh Cob) called Megan once, she was beautiful so it always bring back happy memories - she was very feminine, lovely high action, long wavy mane right down over her shoulders.

I hate the word chavvy, although spelling it creatively would be, IMO displaying ignorance

Megan is a nice name

FunnysInLaJardin · 13/09/2013 16:33

My 58 yo sister is Megan and not chavvy in the least. My sister has a long wavy mane too higgle Grin

SeraphinaSparklePants · 13/09/2013 16:39

No, not at all 'chavvy'.

CruCru · 13/09/2013 19:17

Megan is a normal name. I don't think I would ever think of it being a chavvy name.

DSJamesHathaway · 13/09/2013 19:35

Megan is a lovely name. Why would you think it's chavvy? Confused

Wishfulmakeupping · 13/09/2013 20:20

Of course it's not chavvy

ThePeppermintHippo · 13/09/2013 20:21

It is not Chavvy at all. I suppose it is fairly common in the sense of popular but that is about all... FWIW I think it's a nice name.

Not chavvy but I've never understood why this name is so popular it's "meh" to me.

Alisvolatpropiis · 14/09/2013 12:25

Seriously?

Yes a very traditional Welsh name is "chavvy" Hmm Biscuit

perplexedpirate · 14/09/2013 12:41

Chavvy is such an outdated and horrible word.
I personally am not keen on Megan (it's the 'egg' sound in the middle I'm not keen on), but if she likes it, what's it to you?

Frikadellen · 14/09/2013 15:07

what EnjoyEverySandwich said..

HopeS01 · 14/09/2013 17:38

LEM, unnecessary!!!!!!!

OP, I don't think Megan is chavvy, but personally I'm not keen

Writerwannabe83 · 14/09/2013 20:48

My niece is called Megan. She is 4 and absolutely wonderfully perfect and beautiful!! Grin biased much?!

Theonlyoneiknow · 14/09/2013 22:30

I love it, was nearly DDs name

queenofdrama · 14/09/2013 22:33

How can a name be chavvy? Unless it's after a colour or piece of fruit? Megan is a lovely name!

hettienne · 14/09/2013 22:39

Really, you think Megan is chavvy?

No more so than Lucy, or Hannah Confused

allyfe · 15/09/2013 20:17

Don't believe this is really a serious question. It can't be.
