Giles

[sexnotgender]

Seriously considering this, thoughts?

He was a great character, it’s been so long since I watched it though. It was Anthony Head wasn’t it?

Makes me think of Giles from Buffy too (Anthony Stewart Head) which is a good thing! Think I prefer Rowan though but I'm a sucker for nature names.

Lovely name.

Not keen, sorry. I like Rowan though.

Guy?

Rowan is beautiful! 😍

Not keen on Guy, it’s a nice enough name but not my favourite.

I know a lovely cat called Giles. Also Buffy. And Farmer Giles (a friend actually had a fling with an actual farmer called Giles). So can’t get behind it as a baby name much as I really want to love it.

It's fine.
I don't like it with Francis though. They're too similar.

I love proper people names for animals!

Thank you all for your opinions, I’m 20 weeks tomorrow so we’ve got plenty of time to decide but we’re fairly set on Giles right now.

Farmer Giles (aka piles...)
Giles Peterson on BBC6 Radio!

I know a young (male) Rowan and like that name a lot

Giles is a great Buffy character which is why it came to mind straight away!

Miles is better

I've always had a soft spot for Giles.

It’s a yes from me.

Giles is a great name!

Miles is the plural of Mile, a unit of measurement.

My first boyfriend was Giles. Wild curly hair, wild personality. Super intelligent but impossible. Ah the memories!

Aww I love Giles! How cute!

Rhyming slang!

You can't do that to the poor little boy.

Never heard it used as rhyming slang. Doesn't put me off thankfully!

I prefer Miles. Miles better obvs.

Haha, not a fan of Miles at all.

The epitome of posh try-hard. Awful (sorry).

Rowan, on the other hand, is lovely.

Rowan Francis is lovely!

Giles Brandreth immediately came to mind so it would be a no from me because of association. I really don't like Miles.

farmer Giles, piles.
Miles is much better
