Would these initials put you off? (Baby names)

[WiIdfire]

Our choice of girls names would give the initials BAD. Would that be a problem or am I overthinking it?

On a separate note, I'm thinking of Toby for if it is a boy, but I don't really like Tobias. Can Toby be short for anything else? Just to give him options when he's older.

You could give her a different surname if you want those 2 forenames?

I have to say Tobin immediately made me think 'serial killer'. Toby on its own is nice.

Personally I think BJ is harmless. I've never really known a blow job to be referred to by initials, IME people just say 'blow job'. Anyway it's not like it's a bad thing!

Thanks for the feedback. I think its safest to avoid BAD, and since we weren't 'heart set on it' and have found another combination that works, we're happy.

I wouldn't do it. I worked with a lady who had the initials NOB. She said school was horrid! BAD isn't as awful but I wouldn't do it.

Yes, I would avoid BAD. Maybe add another middle name as someone else said.

Toby is a nice enough name, but there are loads around at the moment - and it's def on the rise and might well end up being the new Oscar/Archie! i.e. several in each class.

More unusual alternatives that seem similar in "feel" to Tobin:

Corin
Torin
Milo
Robin

or similar in sound to Toby:

Joseph (Joey/Joe)
Logan
Brodie

Have fun choosing

Bad isn't an awful word is it?! Genuinely can't see why it would be a problem.

BAD is not a good combo of letter IMO. Sorry!

And agree, there are an awful lot of Tobys around at the moment.

Also the name still makes me think of a Tory MP type in cherry red trousers who drinks too much!

What about:
Tony (Anthony)
Joel
Robbie/Bobby

Also love Robin and Joseph- more classic than Toby!

Good Luck with choosing...
