What do you think of Honor and Tristan?

[daughterofafarmer]

Sorry me again... thread on the go

Views on Tristan to go with DD called Honor?

I think this is my current favourite boys name I think

Looking for a known but underused boys name IYSWIM!

Honor is lovely!

Tristan is too 'triste' = sad. How about Reuben, Quentin or Sebastian which have a similar feel (without the sadness)?

Thank you eva Reuben, Quentin aren't quite right and Sebastian has already been used by a great friend.

Tristan is lovely! I am biased though.

My T isn't sad at all, stroppy at times granted, rarely sad

Honor is lovely.

Tristan is wet.

Hahaha squoosh you post always make me any other suggestions?

your

I'm afraid I too think of triste ('sad' in French and Latin) when I hear Tristan. I love Quentin though or how about Fabian?

Or how about Rowan, Florian, Aneurin?

I like Tristan, but Quentin just makes me think of Uncle Quentin, the grumpy scientist from the Famous Five books. I live in a working class area and anyone called Florian would get the absolute piss riped out of them, lovely as it is.
Honor's beautiful.

Great names but not quite us.

We like Honor too

If you do you Tristan, no fucker will be able to pronounce or spell it correctly, I didn't think it was difficult, but apparently it is.

Cat... Do you have to swear! Tristan is perfectly easy to pronounce and a great name. Lots of other lovely suggestions here too.

Use Tristan! It's my favourite boy's name but sadly DH has vetoed it... along with Reuben, Fabian and Sebastian.

Sorry Black we are allowed to swear though and after many years of people calling Tristan, Tristian, Triston, Christian and Tristin people do find it harder than I would have believed!

I like Fabian. He'd be devastatingly handsome, a bit of a cad with the ladies, live in Paris, write some poetry and recline on a bed of silk sheets whilst smoking the finest Cuban cigars..........

I like Raphael too, with Raf for short.

Quentin also reminds me of Uncle Quentin from the Famous Five.

I do understand Cat. Years of frustration led me never to use my first name again! I cannot recall how many times I had to spell it out to people. I cannot understand why on earth this should happen to a Tristan though. It is not that unusual and way more normal than my name!

Tristan is miserable name for me. Don't like the meaning at all.

cat some people are idoits. Personally it says more about them than the name Tristan.

Honor is the best ever name for a girl! (biased...)

Tristan goes pretty well with it, I think.

If you change your mind, how about
Theodore
Lucian (Luc)
Alexander
Milo
Thibault
Tobias
Mont(gomer)y
Darius

Good luck!

Tristan means noisy :)

I have one and he is neither wet nor sad (he is noisy)

I love it (but of course am biased)

Honor is beautiful.

I'm another who finds Tristan a bit lacking in oomph for my taste. But I'm agog that people can't spell it!

People are idiots, I fear I know more idiots than most who can't spell or pronounce names properly.

Cat girl has a Tristan too, there's something about cat folk who have great named children

Ah yes, we cats have superb taste in names

So a right mix of reactions then?

Regards of views do you think I works with DD's name?

Any other name suggestions?

Regardless doh
