Wolf?

[Deaver]

As a name for a boy, nn Wolfie.....

Other DC have slightly unusual names.

Is it too weird?

It's awful. Especially if he ends up being a slight, mild mannered boy/man.

Wolf sounds like the nickname a leather-waistcoated Sons of Anarchy lookalike might get when they pass their biker gang initiation.

Have to say though, Badger is worse. What are people thinking??!

Or if he is like my uncle who is very very very hairy (apart from on his head).

My son's middle name is Wolfe, family name although that's not why we decided on it. I love it :)

I love it, love Wulfric more.

Fabulous!

We had it down as a potential middle name for a way (after Howlin' Wolf), but it doesn't go with the surname, so it was struck off the list eventually. I like it but would never be game to use it as a first name!

I know of siblings called Wolf and Isis (girl). I'm not keen, but each to their own.

I like it! Was tempted for ds2, but he has ended up with something very classic instead! All I would say, is that you don't know how your child is going to turn out - I think that is the biggest factor with any unusual name. My dh plays tennis with a bloke called Raphael, who looks about as unlike someone called Raphael as you can imagine - its bizarre tbh.

I like it! I think Wulf is a common(ish) name in Germany and it has the same meaning, so why not? I also love Tiger, but I'm not allowed to use it :( I was pretty much attacked for my choice of girls names on a previous thread, so maybe you shouldn't listen to me!

I would go for another one.

I also know a Sharky. He tends to go by his far more traditional middle name.

That said, there is a girl who was in the GoT cast called Nell Tiger Free, which I think sounds so lovely. But would probably be less cool if her surname was Davies.

Love Wulfric!

So, we're at a stalemate.

DP wants Wolf and that is all he wants.

I want Ezra.

We both like Theo but his DB has a son called Theo. We pretty much never see them though.

Wolf:

Fuckin'ell 😂😂😂

Ezra Wolf could maybe be a compromise?
I do like Wolfe with an e on the end. Also like Wolfgang as full name.

I was talking to a friend about the name Hunter a couple of days ago and how it reminded us of the Gladiators tv show, and we said jokingly, "what's next, kids called Wolf?! Hahahahahahaha"

In other words: It would be a ridiculous name

I know a boy called Wulf
And it will out me/them, but the other siblings are Wild and Skylark
The parents are quite tryhard and I have money on the kids all changing their names as soon as they are able

I know a Wolf but it is short for Wolfgang. I would be tempted to use Wilfred and then call him Wolf for short but that may not be to your taste.

I started a Wolf thread before DS was born, we almost went for it (the gladiator thing didn't put us off at all) but as previously said there was a chance he'd turn out really slight and not matching his name in the slightest. Although we didn't stray that far because we used Fox
