What do people think of the name Dash for a boy?

I think of queen Victoria's dog.

Fruitboxjury · 13/09/2017 22:53

Please don't

Fekko · 13/09/2017 22:54

Only if it's short for Dasher. As in the rheindeer.

MrsMoastyToasty · 13/09/2017 22:55

It's
A. The name of Queen Victorias dog.
B. A brand of leisurewear

SuperBeagle · 13/09/2017 22:57

I love Dasha for a girl, but don't like Dash for a boy at all.

NC4now · 13/09/2017 22:59

Fine if you're married to Mr Incredible. Otherwise no. Sorry.

LanaDReye · 13/09/2017 23:00

Nope

LaurieFairyCake · 13/09/2017 23:12

I'd think of Isis (Da-esh)

It's truly awful and your kid would spend its entire life being mocked and laughed at.

IHeartKingThistle · 13/09/2017 23:13

I know a girl called Dash-Autumn.

Wolfiefan · 13/09/2017 23:19

Only if you also have a comma and a colon. Grin

Sophronia · 13/09/2017 23:21

Ok if short for Dashiell

Roseformeplease · 13/09/2017 23:22

What about the other reindeer?

MoonfaceAndSilky · 13/09/2017 23:23

What about Billy Whizz instead? Grin

Pallisers · 13/09/2017 23:28

Wasn't that Elizabeth Barett Browning's dog?

If it is a cool, just happened to turn out like that nickname it is fine. I know someone called Ace because those are his initials. If you just give the name, it sounds very try-hard to be very cool/hip.

Only if you also have a comma and a colon. grin

Love this

indigox · 13/09/2017 23:29

No.

GaryBarlowsTaxReturn · 13/09/2017 23:32

I love it! As short for Dashiell. Cate Blanchett called her son this.

mrwalkensir · 13/09/2017 23:34

love it. Have you considered Bay too?

Abbylee · 13/09/2017 23:35

Its something to live up to. We bought our home from one. He did not.

stopbeingadramallama · 13/09/2017 23:36

How about :
Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen

stopbeingadramallama · 13/09/2017 23:36

Or just Santa?

BackforGood · 13/09/2017 23:47

Another wind up thread I assume ?

I like it, love Dashiell. I think both will pick up in popularity a bit once the next Incredibles film comes out next year.

Becles · 14/09/2017 06:37

Just no
