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:

Very definitely a boys name but there is a feminine version

2 very common abbreviations/nicknames

So, three instances of this name:

The first is biblical with a brother and sister
The second keeps house for a renowned investigator
The third is an American entrepreneur

It's not so much a Scottish name as a word that would make you think of Scotland...

The name is also a noun.

8DaysAWeek · 10/03/2018 23:15

And she's the main character of the series...
