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

Aw do you know that was a total typo!! I was like, that's what I put the first time! But alas, I did not.

Sorry user I’ve handed the win to 8days already but good work!

8DaysAWeek · 11/03/2018 21:49

@user1459464195 do you want a go? I've been twice (or maybe three times...)

Judas?

limitedscreentime · 11/03/2018 22:00

Lucien

limitedscreentime · 11/03/2018 22:01

Or lucifer?!

user1459464195 · 11/03/2018 22:01

Nope Winky, but a good guess. This is quite a devilish game..... and a possible clue!

WinkyisbackontheButterBeer · 11/03/2018 22:01

Good call

user1459464195 · 11/03/2018 22:02

Limitedscreentime has it! Lucifer it is. (NOT my child's name BTW!) 😂 over to you, Limitedscreentime

limitedscreentime · 11/03/2018 22:05

Ok, girls name, 3 syllables, and I think a name for a good witch (possibly from popular culture, but may be my brain making attachments!).

user1459464195 · 11/03/2018 22:06

Tabitha?

limitedscreentime · 11/03/2018 22:08

No, but you've got the feel for it.

user1459464195 · 11/03/2018 22:09

Samantha?

Joinourclub · 11/03/2018 22:14

Sabrina?!

limitedscreentime · 11/03/2018 22:19

Nope, have Googled it and it is a witch but prob not an obvious link. There is a popular Cornish fictional character with this name however....

user1459464195 · 11/03/2018 22:23

Jennifer? (Cos it's the only Cornish name I know!) Grin

Demelza?

limitedscreentime · 11/03/2018 22:31

Got it Duggee Grin

DuggeeHugs · 11/03/2018 22:41

A fairly recent celestial name which makes more sense backwards
