Theo's do you know? Full name would be Theodore but would go as Theo.. I personally don't know any but I think it is becoming more and more popular recently and I don't want DS to have a name that a lot of people his age will have! X

3, all under 5. I love it, personally.

WindyScales · 21/04/2017 22:08

I know 2, aged 2 & 5

DramaAlpaca · 21/04/2017 22:14

I've never met one.

MrsGsnow18 · 21/04/2017 22:15

I knew one a long time ago when I was in my teens, he was only a toddler then. He'd be totally grown up now!

Sparrowlegs248 · 21/04/2017 22:16

One, he's about 43.

None. I like it - it's a name I'd consider if I were to have a DS

My dd (aged 16) has three in her year at school. My ds (aged 11) has one in his year. I know none outside of this.

Thanks for all your replies! I don't have many names in mind as I'm so fussy but this one I really like & doesn't seem as common as I thought it would be! X

I think there's one in DS1's class (year 2) and I know a grown up Theo too.

Ecureuil · 22/04/2017 09:39

One toddler, one teenager

shaggedthruahedgebackwards · 22/04/2017 09:39

I only know one who is 9/10ish

SuperSix77 · 22/04/2017 10:01

Quite a few! 4 babies under 1, a couple of pre-schoolers. One 6 year old. But no older kids. It's become V popular in the last few years with us. I had it on my list as I love the 'Teddy' nn when they're little, with the potential for either Theo or Theodore later on...but DP vetoed it due to us knowing so many! Lovely name though.

tinypop4 · 22/04/2017 10:07

Two young toddlers

Mrsknackered · 22/04/2017 12:40

I know quite a few but ranging from 30 years old too 5 months.

welshweasel · 22/04/2017 12:42

Very popular in baby groups and nurseries round here. I like it though.

Thanks everyone! I'm 22 weeks today, so still a while to go but I think Theodore is a winner
