Google tells me the lost boys dog was called Nanook so you were very close. Thanks for all the replies. It's mainly confirmed my love for the name. I do worry that in an English accent it doesn't sound as nice, and also that it wouldn't go with our very sturdy surname. But I guess I have a while to think about it.

Utterly love wish we had thought of it for dd1 her name is too similar to use it!

I've always thought this a very peculiar name, and it reminds me of Anorak. Sorry.

Reminds me of evil Imhotep's wife from the Mummy films - Anck (pr Anuk) Su Namun

I like it!

Lovely!

Love it. Wish we'd had to courage to use it. Super cute.

fourchetteoff · 18/05/2015 12:22

Love it.

But it's one of those names that is so firmly 'forrin' I would at least expect there to be some history of Frenchness (or Dutchness!) in the family to use it.

Love it. And I know an absolutely gorgeous teenage Anouk.

Love it - I know a beautiful little girl with nn 'nuki.'

Perfectly normal name in my opinion.
