Makes me think of fingernail dust.

Dick

JaneAustinAllegro · 19/11/2016 19:54

What about Amory / Amaury? An actual name, and I thought s man's but used for a woman in the latest William Boyd novel

neonrainbow · 19/11/2016 19:55

Board.

What about Avery? Unisex and has a similar feeling.

EmpressOfTheSpartacusOceans · 19/11/2016 19:55

Oh good, I'm not the only one who thought of Dick.

bloodymaria · 19/11/2016 19:57

Board definitely.

CordeliaFrost · 19/11/2016 19:58

Love it.

It's my younger brother's name. He's spent 29 years with the name and it hasn't done him any harm! Wink

Theimpossiblegirl · 19/11/2016 19:58

I like it. There was a show a couple of years ago called Starcrossed and the main character was Emery. I didn't think of an emery board (I just call them nail files) or Dick Emery (never heard of him).

PunkrockerGirl · 19/11/2016 20:08

I think it's awful, but each to their own.
I love how on these threads when posters say they're not keen on the op's suggestion, but helpfully suggest insert equally hideous name as an alternative Grin
Gives me hours of entertainment.

neonrainbow · 19/11/2016 20:33

Surly that's more useful than just being a dick about the name op suggested? Hmm

lightupowl · 19/11/2016 20:36

Board. Sorry Smile

MadameCholetsDirtySecret · 19/11/2016 20:37

Please don't.

KlingybunFistelvase · 19/11/2016 20:37

Board for me too! Sorry.

PunkrockerGirl · 19/11/2016 21:03

neon
Surly (sic) only a complete dick would suggest 'helpful' alternatives to some of the horrors that posters try and pass off as 'names' on here.
The sensible answer, instead of trying to rearrange the letters to form another name, is no, that's not a name, don't be fucking ridiculous.

Love it
