Everest?

DH and I can’t decide on any names at all for either sex. It’s getting ridiculous with approx 6 weeks to go, if I follow my first.

My 2.5 year old says the baby is called Everest (yes, from paw patrol 🙈). In my madness I’m actually considering it. Is this just hormones and desperation clouding my judgement. Or would it be acceptable?

Haven't heard Everest as a name but i knew a guy called Everton, it actually suited him! The football jokes drove him mad though.

If you quite like Owen, what about Ewan, Evan or Aaron?

Good luck deciding x

I think it's sweet to try to take into account the older sibling's wishes into account.
This is why we stopped having children after Tinkywinky came along in 2001.

If you are going for paw patrol I would hedge my bets with alex... not likely to encounter strong negative opinions and also not named after a dog Wink
DS2 middle name is after a super hero at DS1's instigation... in my defence we went for the alter ego name so it's not John batman smith or anything.

My mind's blown that it should be pronounced Eev-rest but no one does!

What about George, a traditional name and for George Everest, and for George Mallory (arguably) the first person to climb Everest...

Along the same lines, Tenzin?

My DB wanted my parents to call me Huckle - thank god they didn't listen to him!

Sorry, it makes me think of the window company rather that the mountain.
