Thoughts on Stanley??

[MummyTheGregor]

I think I really like Stanley.... I've got a Finlay and a Fraser already.... does it go?

Knife.
Sorry

I don't like it, sorry...but then again I don't like any 'old people's' names.

Agree with no triple F too!

It's ok to me, but if it's special to you ignore the comments here and go with it

Use it as a mn if it's important to you. Personally, I think it goes better with Trevor and Nigel than Finley and Fraser.

Love Stanley.
Sidney is similar too

Looooooove it

thanks everyone.... I like it but not sure it "goes" it ine of the only boy names that DH and I both like.....
I love Seth but DH not keen... If dc3 is a boy he's truly buggered - esp as keen to give middle name as Norman after my Grandad.....
"Stanley Norman" so old fashioned that ots cool maybe ha??!!
DH vetoes nearly all the names I like ha!
Got lots of girls names that we love....

gah apologies re typos!! :)

I like Seth

I don't think you should listen to anyone else when it comes to names BUT Stanley (knife) and Norman (Bates from the film Psycho) seems an odd combination. Good luck!

Stanley is a wonderful name.

Don't get the desire to matchy matchy names though.

Love Stanley. Really dislike Seth. To me the name Seth is a bit evil.

Have you considered Sonny? Sullivan? Samuel?

Aw, I had a rabbit called Norman. He was named after Norm in Cheers, not Norman Bates. I really like the name, obviously. And Stanley - I know a lots of Stanley/Stans, it's a great name.

Along the same lines, how about Sidney/Sid? It's got the same sort of vibe. Or Gilbert/Gil?

Oooo like Sonny!! Will try add that the list stealthily and tell dh that he def approved it!
at Seth being evil! I just think of the old chap in Emmerdale Farm when hear Seth.
Norman will alway be my beloved grandad so no psycho killer connection would mar it, its just so old fashioned that I'm not sure it would be fair to a wee boy....

My first thought is Laurel and Hardy, one of them was Stanley

I thought of Norman Stanley Fletcher from Porridge with your other possible name...

But I love Stanley with a different middle name, tho agree it doesn't especially "go" with your other DC, if that's something that bothers you
