Rocco

[Frenchcroissant]

So my friend has just announced his baby's name on Facebook, Rocco Red. Am I the only one who thinks she's bonkers?

Well if your friend reads this I'm guessing she'll know it's about her! 😂

Sounds like a wrestler

There a Rocco in my daughters class and I like it. He’s a lovely little boy and it totally suits him.

Do they own a chain of hotels Forte

Very, um, celebby, not my sort of thing at all but it does seem to be increasingly popular names.darkgreener.com/#rocco

Love it! Though it does make me say "hello heifer" in my head (anyone else remember Rocco's Modern Life?!)

I know three baby roccos. It's really not my thing.

To be honest I didn't know it was that popular, never heard it before apart from the Italian porn star....

It's not that popular in Italy either. I know about 20 Roccos, all over 30 and called after their grandfather

I was just thinking it sounded like a wrestler or porn star. Didn't know there was one actually called that

Even aside from that I think it's dreadful.

Makes me think of the dog food.
And I dislike it.

I really like it actually 😊

I think it's really quite cool!

It sounds one of the names I'd never be barave enough to use at all though!

Plus on honeymoon in Malaysia, the owners Golden Retriever was called Rocco!

Brave^

Also I'm sure Madonna's son is called Rocco?

Rocco Red sounds like a name that Jamie and Jools Oliver would call their son.

I just think of Rocco Siffredi (the 'Italian stallion') and Madonna's son, both of which put me off. It also seems a strange choice unless they have Italian heritage, although living in central Italy I've never actually met a Rocco.

They don't have any Italian heritage, only Scottish. And why did they chose a colour as middle name? It baffles me.

I quite like Red as a name, as in Red Adair. I've heard of a Ruby Red too. It's a bit twee.
Red Adair is a known as name his real first names are Paul Neal.

Red is cool! 😎
I like Rocco too.

The two names together is pretty strange.

But I quite like Rocco on its own.

Oh I love it! Although my dd has an unusual name so I'm not the best person to judge

I really like Rocco. I now a 40 year old French Rocco and an 18 year old English one. Never thought it an odd name.

Rocco Red is a bit OTT.

My cousin's little boy is Rocco - he's awesome. My cousin is a boxer though.

Surname Bull?
