Raef??

[wineandpopcorn]

What do people think of the name raef for a boy?

Am I the only person who thought it was

Ranulph finnes?

We know a Ralph (rafe) who is about 9 now. Cute kid. Cute name.

There is both Ranulf of the give Mr Grylls a run for his money variety and Ralph of the harry potter films and most definitely not to be confused with Joseph with the sexy shoulders in Shakespeare in Love.

Yes, that is Joseph Alberic Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes

sorry, Ranulph. Tired, now.

Oh, that threw me!

According to youtube(!)

Ranulph is pronounce Ralf

and Ralph is is pronounce Rafe!

This actually sounds more like Raith to me. [brain explodes]

Sorry I completely misread, I thought you meant Ralph would get spelled as Ralf by mistake which is why I couldn't understand why anyone would as Ralph is more usual :)

Ranulph is pronounced how?

The problem with all this Ranulph/Ralph/Raef stuff is that it comes across to 95% of the population as pretentious poppycock, which might well be completely unfair/misguided/silly, but there it is.

I've been saying Ralph Lauren wrong all this time...

Hahahahahaha,.......disappears over the horizon in a pretentious manner
