I immediately thought ...Wallop, then had to google Farleigh Wallop in case I'd gone mad and made it up. (I hadn't: it's a place in Hampshire.)

John's a nice name

I live near a village called Farleigh.

Is that where he was conceived.

Sounds like famous brand of baby rusks

Please don't ! He'll be nicknamed "Fartleigh" by the end of fist day at school

chokes
That is the most unfortunate sentence I have read all day!

Awful...just awful Sounds like a dogs name. Also I just think of Farley's rusks. Plus it sounds more a girls name to me than a boy. Maybe Finley/Finlay would be a nicer alternative.

😂 rusks

OK, got it, thanks! I'm not in the UK, so rusks aren't a thing here, but good to know, anyway!

Nice name for a house.

Tipsntoes · 14/01/2018 13:59

It's the name of a Hospice locally here. An amazing organisation but not sure I'd want to name a child after it.

FundayMorning · 14/01/2018 14:53

You say famous wood engraver, I hear rusks.

NatureWalk · 14/01/2018 14:57

I came on to say rusks!

Thermostatpolice · 14/01/2018 14:58

Rusks. Sorry.

How about a kind of wood? Rowan, Ash...

Or John, if you want to name him after the wood engraver directly.
