Montgomery or Kenneth????

[littleoysterslittleoysters]

Kenneth was my Granddad's name and I'm suddenly loving it!

Kenneth risks being shortened to Ken... That's the only thing I don't like about it.

I do prefer Kenneth to Montgomery though. I don't like Monty/Montgomery.

I much prefer Montgomery although I know three little boys called it (nn Monty) so be prepared for th possibility that he won't be the only one at school with the name.

Hmmm, frying pan or fire? Sorry

Montgomery is very grand sounding, better if you're actually the 12th Earl of Shrewsbury or similar . Monty is ok, so I'd opt for that one if forced to make a choice.

Kenny or Monty

Monty over ken ...

Neither. Your hormones have addled your mind

Kenneth definitely.

Kenneth is a great name, I love seeing these classic names coming back. Montgomery is more unusual and reminds of me of Simpsons, if your surnames is Burns ....

I'm sorry, but they are dreadful. Would it be like an ironic hipster thing?

Neither, sorry!
Anything else on your list?

Kenneth. Kenny would actually be quite cute on a little boy.

Op its just the hormones. For theove of all that is good please pick Monty not Kenny

Kenneth

Kenneth - first king of Scotland!

Kenny is a lovely NN.
Kenneth means handsome iirc.
I like it.

Montgomery not so much.

I'm going to add another vote for neither and waiting for your hormones to settle - sorry!

Not Kenneth! Sorry, I don't think it's time yet. Maybe Ken/Kenny on its own at a push.

Monty is much nicer IMO. Montgomery is a bit much but still better than Kenneth.

Did your granddad have a middle name?

Please spare a thought for the poor child. Both are awful.

Neither!

Please don't. You'll live to regret it. My DH's middle name is Kenneth after his father and he hates it. I did ask if he wanted to continue the family tradition and give it as a middle name to our ds but he was adamant that it should be a tradition which died with him.

Montgomery. I prefer the nickname Monty to Ken.

Neither
Maybe as a 2nd name to honor your family

But Ken is really the worst nn incould think of

Montgomery - horrible, pompous and pretentious. Please don't give you baby that name urggggh!

Kenneth - wouldn't have chosen it myself but it does have a kind if something about it and I understand why it appeals. Definitely go for it.

They are both awful but Kenneth is the worst. Sorry.
