Kray, nay

Whatififall · 28/08/2018 21:31

My Grandad’s name. I love it, it’s of an era with Alfie or Archie which have become popular again

WooYa · 28/08/2018 21:32

Yay Smile

w4ytoomuch · 28/08/2018 21:38

Loved it but then Danielle Lloyd named her boy it and it's put me off unfortunately

MrsMolehillMountain · 28/08/2018 21:39

Like it but my initial thought upon reading that title was 'and reggie'

Peachbubble · 28/08/2018 21:39

It's a nay from me

Sashkin · 28/08/2018 21:41

Is your surname “Pickering”? If so, go for it. Otherwise I’m just envisioning 1970s comedians, I’m afraid.

Ronald. Great name.

Electrack · 28/08/2018 21:42

Sister’s dog is Ronnie

ReginaPhalange89 · 29/08/2018 07:30

No. It's one of those old ones that sounds too old to me. I don't know why some work and some don't, Ronnie doesn't .

Icklepup · 29/08/2018 07:34

Yay.

Mommybearx · 29/08/2018 07:36

Everyone gets use to whatever you name them- I think it’s nice if u feel they look like s Ronnie. If it’s a girl could always be Veronica - as automatically I thought of Ronnie Mitchell

Sunflower321 · 29/08/2018 07:46

Ronald or Ron yes.

But Ronnie, no.

knowledgeofnone · 29/08/2018 07:54

It's quite a common name where I am for older men and I can honestly say of the 7/8 Ronnies I have known every single one of them has been a total prick! So it's a no from me.

Chocolategirl79 · 29/08/2018 08:07

Really like it and considered it for my second but the Kray reference worried me.

CryptoFascist · 29/08/2018 08:08

Nice name, yay

Sallygoroundthemoon · 29/08/2018 08:08

Nay

user1483972886 · 29/08/2018 08:09

No for starters you don't know if it's a girl or a boy... and the second thing you think of is the krays...

notacooldad · 29/08/2018 08:16

I know a baby, a teenage and an older Ronnie.
Once you know and like people the name becomes theirs.
If you like it use it. Why not?

Joeybee · 29/08/2018 08:23

As a nickname for Ronald, but not on its own.

theveryhighlife · 29/08/2018 08:34

Nope

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 29/08/2018 09:12

Terrible

Katjolo · 29/08/2018 09:13

Nay

SilkeOvesen · 29/08/2018 09:14

It’s goodnight from me... and it’s goodnight from him.

OzymandiasFanClub · 29/08/2018 09:18

no
