Guessing Game

Thought this would make a fun thread and maybe also provide names for people that are choosing that they wouldn't have thought of otherwise.

Think of a name (your child's or any name really) and provide 3 clues.

Other posters have to guess the name and once someone gets it right, it's their turn!

I'll start:

2 syllables

Very definitely a boys name but there is a feminine version

2 very common abbreviations/nicknames

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Alvin?

FintyTin · 24/03/2018 00:12

I knew I could count on you, Bexter801! Ellis it is.
The second clue - 'L' is the clue..."'L' is" = Ellis.
The third one, "Sing along with..." etc, was a reference to Sophie Ellis-Bexter801, of course Grin.

The floor is all yours...

Bexter801 · 24/03/2018 00:34
