I like it but absolutely can't abide Clemmie!

DramaAlpaca · 28/09/2018 21:59

I absolutely love it, but I'd never have got it past DH.

FrederickCreeding · 28/09/2018 22:00

I love it too.

OrdinaryGirl · 28/09/2018 22:14

Love! I liked the character of that name in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

I don't like Clemmie either. I was thinking Callie as a loose nick name.

Nay. I knew the mother of a clementine and she is a colossal bellend so that’s put me off.

Shadow1234 · 28/09/2018 22:15

Like it, but as above, dont like Clemmie!

Pieceofpurplesky · 28/09/2018 22:16

alwaysonadiet1 · 28/09/2018 22:19

Pieceofpurplesky was there a B around this clementine??

Onwithsocks · 28/09/2018 22:26

It’s a beautiful name. Classic, but not oeuvre. X

PodgeBod · 28/09/2018 22:27

Nay. Can't imagine a child with this name and does not go with Aubyn at all.

ilovepixie · 28/09/2018 22:34

Love it. And could be shortened to clem

earlybyrd · 28/09/2018 22:35

Beautiful name

Fishywishyhead · 28/09/2018 22:37

Love it, nearly called my eldest daughter it but she popped a bit too serious looking.

Dinosauratemydaffodils · 28/09/2018 22:47

I love it. Dh vetoed it for dd though because he doesn't like "Oh my darling Clementine".

madeyemoodysmum · 28/09/2018 22:52

❤️

MollyHuaCha · 28/09/2018 23:02

I like it.

Ellieboolou27 · 28/09/2018 23:19

It should be peeled prior to eating. No from me Grin

Amyerda · 28/09/2018 23:22

I'm with alwaysonadiet

Sungura · 29/09/2018 00:29

Personally I would never use it. But has a fresh, sunshiny feel to it. Clem and Cleo do make cute nns as suggested by two pp.

RedDwarves · 29/09/2018 00:44

I like it, but abhor Clemmie/Clem, so would never use it.

Picknickers · 29/09/2018 01:45

Bit fruity for me.
