We like Phoebe, but know a couple already. Like the "F" sound though.

Name-changed as the baby's name is staying secret until it's a done deal - don't want to discuss IRL as MIL and DM have fixed ideas. Want objective opinions.

I like Phillipa too.

One of the biggest porn stars in BDSM is Felony.

Yeah, saddle your kid with that one, that's going to go dead well.

Shock Not aware of that world. I suppose a lot of the kids at nursery will be though? Grin

Phawn? Phwoar? Phlintnapper?

Phlicka? Write your own updated version of, My Friend Phlicka ?

We named our daughter Phelonie
We thought it sounded heavenly
But Mumsnet seems to disagree
Nobody likes the name - tant pis!

phdwriting · 30/10/2018 15:22

No but the dads might be and the teenage boys when she's a teenager will likely find out too.

user34903583908 · 30/10/2018 15:23

There's a few Phelonies on FB. Can't believe no-one else here knows it.

And lets face it. If I knew it, someone else will and will think of it. do you want them thinking of your daughter that way?

Mummyoflittledragon · 30/10/2018 15:23

Phuckit I can’t think of any other silly names.

Fenella is nice.

If you are trying to make this another 'Balonz' thread, you are failing misrerably OP!

user34903583908 · 30/10/2018 15:24

Obviously, if the consensus is a bit PHAT NO, I will go with that.

I've been given some super alternatives here, so thanks for that.

If DH and I can't agree, we may have to give up on the F/PH altogether.

Thank God I have three months to get on with this.

True, true. Though I know something about one of the most popular names at the moment. I suspect it's kind of niche though. I mentioned it once and no-one knew what I was on about. Best kept that way, most likely Grin

Want objective opinions.

It's horrifically bad.
Like passed around as an urban legend -'I know of a kid called, wait for it, Phelonie, like Felony with a PH cue hysterical laughter' - bad.

There you go. An objective opinion.

Have you consider Eejit?

tenbob · 30/10/2018 15:28

"I would have it pronounced"

Bless you but language doesn't work like that, OP 😂

user34903583908 · 30/10/2018 15:28

Another site mentioned the Phelonie name is a WOW character too, apparently. Again, I know sod all about video games.

Dear save your child -_- all these names are absolute garbage. All sound like made up names from parents with no intelligence.
