What do you think when you hear the name Milo?

And yes, I'm expecting a few 'it's a dog' responses!

Just wondering what you all think of it? Considering it for DC2 arriving in a couple of weeks, DS1 has a 'grandad' type name.

Thanks!

I really like it. Love the sound of it. I don’t know anyone local to me with the name but a friend of a friend has a Milo and lots of people have commented they like it

If you’re unsure you could register them as “Miles” and Milo can be nickname. There’s a lady on Instagram called @ maxmademedoit that has done that and it works well

What are your thoughts now @LovelyWeatherForDucks

I'm a 40 something mum of a 2 year old snd I've never really heard of the Tweenies so wouldn't make that connection at all. I've also never come across a pet called Milo. I only know one Milo- he's an American 2 year old with quite an intellectual lecturer mom. I quite like the name. It is quite of the 2010s but not popular/common enough to date that badly. If it does date it'll be the way 1970s and 80s names like Steven or Luke dated.....I don't know any Lukes over the age of 45 but I wouldn't say it was a name that dated too badly.

It’s in the same camp as Alfie, Archie and Stanley. Babyish and not great for anything older than a 5 year old.

1. Strong man in the classics — Herculean character — that the drink Milo was named after. Drinking Milo was supposed to make kids strong
2. Juno & the Paycock, a play I dislike
3. A rather nice revival of an old name

Milo Minderbinder (catch 22) or Tweenies.

Not good.
