What do you think of Poseidon?

[BabiesDontNeedDaddies]

I like Percy but I don't like Percival or Perseus. What do you think?

I would think Percy is a name well recognised on its own now.

Poseidon might be considered by MANY on this site as ‘too much’.

Ridiculous.
Just call them Percy

What about Piers / Pierce ... ?

I don’t think Percy is a shortening for Poseidon.

I think the other children in school will shorten it to Posie.

It’s a bit much honestly

I think it's too much. I just asked my DH what he thought and he burst out laughing.

This must be a joke, surely. Please tell me it’s a joke.

I like it. And Perseus

Adventure

Bonkers I think the poster who told her husband who burst out laughing says it all

Awful.
We've got a Playmobil plastic boat with the same name.

Go for Persil, Percentage, Person, Perspicacious or Purse with Percy as nickname.

I am sorry but I don’t like any of them. Percy Pecker is a slang term for penis too.

I think of the '70 disaster movie

It's awful. I think if I met a child with the name I would initially struggle not to let out a giggle and then I would just find myself feeling sorry for him.

Please. Stick with Percy.

It's a fabulous name if you're a God.

Will he be born with a long beard?

Poseidon - no. Possy/Pussy. Not great

Like the disaster film?

No.

I think deity-related names are much under used OP. You should definitely go for that 😂😂😂😂.
To be fair, I do know two guys called Mars (father and son) and DS1 was at school with Adonis.

Oh god no

There's a Greek restaurant near us called that.

You can't be serious.
