Help!! Difficult choice of boys names: Sean, Daniel or Balonz?

[TheoGB]

Dear MNers. Hoping you might all be able to help us out as we’re having real difficulty agreeing a name for DS due soon. For DD, we went 'rare'. Weren’t sure we were quite ready to find some ultra-weird name, but equally there are millions of Kates, Elizabeths and so ons.

For DD though, we’re thinking a much more traditional name, perhaps inspired by close friends/family. What are MNers’ thoughts on either Sean, Daniel or Balonz? Many thanks in advance!

I love the comment about eating en elephant. 'How was i supposed to know it was in my quiche?' These kinds of threads are mumsnet at its best. They should publish the classics in a book.

Bumping to add that DD heard me howling about this thread to DH, and her (female) baby doll now delights in the name of Balonz. And I have to cuddle/feed/wipe the arse of Balonz while keeping a straight face.

FWIW: I think Theo will have to return here once Balonz is born and post a photo of Data and her brother in their infant Treksuits.

Don't let this thread go Balonzing off ... funniest thread in a LONG time!

I am crying and I have dribbled on my iPad. Balonz.

Just caught up with this thread and laughing so much, that my sleeping husband next to me, got up in a huff and is now in the spare room.
It was worth it...

Balonz is the Mumsnet Name of the Day for Boys!

Hooray, 2015 Top 100 here we come!

You must be proud, Theo!

Extremely proud Yonic

It's so satisfying to see a traditional name come back into fashion again. I'm just pleased to have played my own small part in that.

God this was funny.

I loved the forum exchange too.

And yes I know it's a Zombie!!!

Daniel.

Balonz is really awful. Sean ok but I prefer Shaun. Daniel is great.

And yes I know it's a Zombie!!!

Yeah but everyone posting after this isn't going to!

Heh I know...

But I thought it deserved another 5 min of fame

Snorted. Cried. Snorted some more. Funniest thread I've read in ages

Awww, i loved balonz!

I came here from the Farrah thread but now I cant find the Farrah thread. Has it gone?

Another year where Balonz hasn't entered top 100. Gutted
Maybe next year?

Oh, I love this thread. Nice to see it back. It should really be in Classics.

Oh god I've been pissing myself laughing at this thread!!!

B-A-L-O-N-Z just to make sure no one is using the other common spelling of the name
Obviously data is traditionally a boys name but what the hell

Id go for Daniel. I don't like it personally. However it is a nice normal name.

I like the actual sound of Balonz, but I do agree it does sound like balloons.
Sean is one of the most repulsive boy names ever, imo. Sorry to all the Seans and parents of Seans.

This is the thread that keeps on giving.

Having cried twice today at my miserable situation, this thread cheered me right up. I'd love to know what her daughter was called if it was a rarer name than Balonz...

So, was this baby, who will now be about three, named Balonz? I can't help thinking that it must mean testicles, or bollocks if you like.
