Is the Baby Name Finder on glue???

[CoffeeWithMyOxygen]

Just looked up David in the MN Baby Name Finder. It's a family name we've considered but I'm on the fence so thought I'd see what similar names they suggested. They came up with - wait for it - FESTER. Baby FESTER. Can only conclude that the name finder is tripping balls.

Awww, I loved Uncle Fester.

Kind man. Loyal to his family. Non judgemental. Good with children. Had his own electrical current.

You could name a child after far worse people.

You make good points, actually. Even when Debbie tried to kill him he remained calm and good natured. I think it's growing on me!

I am not actually pregnant yet, so will be generous and allow other MNetters to use it on their own little baby Fester. It'll be the new Jack and Evie.

I was thinking this was going to be a debate on calling your dc Finder.

Fester for a boy and Wednesday for a girl. .
My dm nearly used it for me. . . And she had a drug free labour ffs!! And I was born on a bloody Sunday!!

Oh dear, I've just put my dc name's into it. One suggestion, Karma... bit harsh, she's an ok kid really

I love Gomez as a name.

Haha. I put Lewis in there and got Wolfgang , Edvald and Katie (for a boy?!)

But definity putting Fester on my list now

I got Tallis, Pilar and Tawnie (for girls) when looking up Emma.

I got Cadwallader for a boy. Not sure Cad would be a decent NN ...

Based on my daughters names, I've been suggested asterix, Toke, Bugdozer or George Wheeler for a boy.

Fester

Is it something like people who've shortlisted David have also shortlisted Fester?

Hmm I looked up Millicent, and an alternative boys name was Elvis. In what way are they similar?

And even worse, a female alternative to Thomas is U-Niq. WHAT??

LOL put my son's name Jonathan in and got Yedes and Janne...

Yeah, you're right. It is totally on glue.

I've just searched for a family name which is slightly old fashioned now and got "alternatives you may like.."
Boys
Stennet
Harley jay (yes, lowercase on jay )
Ceaser

Girls
Brayley
Mir
Clio

Umm.... No.

DS has a traditional, reasonably common Scottish name.

It suggested Stormaggeden.

I think that wins

Put in my daughter's name, and the top suggestions were Sparkle for a girl, and Vlad for a boy.

Sparkle & Vlad.

Sounds like a My Little Pony/Count Duckula cross-over.

DD has a very ordinary traditional biblical name (not Ruth, but that sort of thing) - I got suggestions of
Deri
Issa
Xevera
Dior
as similar girls names
(I actually rather like the boy name suggestions of, Tam, Brett, Alder & Francesco - though had dd been a boy, she'd probably have been Thomas or something similar)

Put in Edward, got suggestions that included Pesto and Speckles. Damn I missed a trick there!!

Stormaggeden narrowly beats Bugdozer to win the thread I think.

Now I just need a baby to name

Where do I find the name finder?
Please

Wednesday's a fab name. I wanted it for DD2's middle name, but DH wasn't having it. Wednesday is a brilliant namesake too.

This is fun.
I put in Bob and it suggested Acer.

I got piaro?? For a boy
And Glissen for a girl when I put in dd1's name, do people actually name their kids these things ?
