Alan?

[TheSandmansSon]

For a girl?

Arf. No.

Oh squoosh you've muddied the waters now. Any chance you're having twins OP?

Oh yes Madame, so chic. Norbert would easily take a woman through all stages in life, from Bert in the playground, Norbert in the boardroom, and Norbie baby in the bedroom. An excellent suggestion.

Our American friends have just named their baby boy Alan and we had to do our best not to do a face. But for a girl? Please, please don't.

Is this a joke?

Nooooo not Alan!

Colin's nice though 👍

Really??

Clive. Defiantly Clive.

Alan for a girl...

Do you mean Alana?

What about Brian? Classic, strong name, he won't have any problem becoming a high court judge.

Don't be ridiculous OP

What about Alanya?

I love all the jokes, and then when somebody makes a thread about James for a girl, everyone starts claiming it's a lovely name for a girl and that it's sexist to assign a gender to name.

Nope. I definitely rolled my eyes at the 'James for a girl' thread.

Keith?

I wouldn't call a girl James (or Alan). And I wouldn't call a boy Ellie.

Don't worry squoosh, I didn't mean LITERALLY everyone.

I like it but prefer Colin.

That's a relief Chinlo

I've got it, Ron, after Ron Dicko from Brookside!

Buster if we're thinking of Brookie themed names, I think the perfect girl's name is Barry, after Barry Grant.
Or there's always Trevor (American friend has a son called Trevor )

Alan is great for a girl. Similar names you may like: Colin, Adam, Paul, Norman
