Not a fan of any of those names to be honest. I think Finton is awful - it's like Findon but that's been messed up.Also it sounds like a legal firm or something.
Titus sounds like a pets name rather than a persons. Also Titus has 'Tit' built in to the name!
Tudor is okay, quite a strong name and 'Tude' is quite a cool nickname. Also theres the royal connection.

Tiberius is magnificent!

I'm not a fan of any of those, sorry.

I might consider them for a dog or cat.

Have you considered Kevin? i don't think anyone calls their kids Kevin anymore.

It would be unique!

I wanted to call my son Titus as it is a brilliant name. Sadly, Shakespeare ruined it with a particularly nasty character called Titus Andronicus who was quite a LTB type. He is called Fergus instead.

Saxon is a good strong name that makes a statement.

Or Hadrian.

Although round here the poor child would be ribbed mercilessly.

To whomever said Finbar:

Viz. Finbar Saunders and his Double Entendres. Phnerr phnerrr.

heateallthebuns · 05/01/2018 21:26

All really 'try hard' tbh.

shsh3r · 05/01/2018 21:31

Tiger??

MrsBartlettforthewin · 05/01/2018 21:35

Tudor. It is an awesome name.

RobertPostschild · 05/01/2018 21:35

Something else....

'Tobin'?

VinoEsmeralda · 05/01/2018 21:43

I just had to watch the Fenton clip again pure gold Grin.
Dont like any of those names. Looks like trying too hard

buttercup54321 · 05/01/2018 21:50

Titus sounds like a dog. plus Tit bit would lead to teasing
Fintan sounds like infant
Tudor just makes me think of Henry V111.
Finlay
Terry
Thomas
Frank

Ah come on people.

Don’t mock Tudor Grin

fessmess · 05/01/2018 21:59

Surely this is a wind up? If not how about Caesar or Brutus? ;)

Marymaymay · 05/01/2018 22:09

I met a Victory the other day.

Poor boy.

His friend was called Siri.

Poor girl.

Marymaymay · 05/01/2018 22:10

don’t mock Tudor

Amazing

NinonDeLenclos · 05/01/2018 22:12

Siri is a standard Scandinavian name.

Similar to Alexa really.

Marymaymay · 05/01/2018 22:13

It may be, but it’s not going to be fun for her at secondary school.

JustPutSomeGlitterOnIt · 05/01/2018 22:34

Mycats Grin

Titus sounds like something out of The Life of Brian

DottyBlue2 · 05/01/2018 22:39

I met a wonderful Siri the other day, and her friend, Amazon Echo.

horatioisabrick · 06/01/2018 08:45

Siri is a lovely name imo :)

it’s a short form of Sigrid (Which I happen to like as as well).

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 06/01/2018 10:28

@PhuntSox, yes isn't it just, I like the nn Tiber too.😄
