Yay

Are they a member of the X-Men?

Love it, I fear that the Kardashian name might tarnish the name for some. I would love to meet a little Storm.

Constance1234 · 05/05/2019 23:25

Isn’t it one of the Kardashian children’s names? I guess people will assume you are a big fan of theirs, so if you don’t mind that, then go for it :)

I know a Firefighter called Storm, I love the name, but Stormi is now popular because of Kylie Jenner's little girl. Still love it, very unusual.

Kylie Jenners baby is Stormi which I don't like.

Sorry OP, Storm as a name reminds me of this -Tim Minchin

Isn’t the phone girl on The Wright Stuff called Storm? She’s lovely, clever and professional but when I hear her name I wonder what her parents planned for her.
Totally my issue though. Nice name, I just don’t see it as professional. I need to get over myself.

pikapikachu · 05/05/2019 23:27

Nay. People will think that you are emulating Kylie Jenner's dd Stormi.

ballsdeep · 05/05/2019 23:27

Too much kardashian wannabe

YahBasic · 05/05/2019 23:29

Probably outing but it’s my MIL maiden name, so I’ve always loved it as a middle name.

pikapikachu · 05/05/2019 23:30

Conjures up an image of anger.

SlimGin · 05/05/2019 23:30

Nay, sorry. Everything aside it just doesn't sound very name-y

50shadesofgreyrock · 05/05/2019 23:30

I knew a little Storm. She was VI due to albinism, and they wanted to give her an unusual name. V striking little girl, a sweetie. She’d be about 15/16 now I think.

Purplegecko · 05/05/2019 23:37

Is it going to age well into adulthood? Im not keen

Wolfiefan · 05/05/2019 23:41

No.

DharmaInitiativeLady · 05/05/2019 23:43

There was a girl called Storm in my class growing up in the eighties/nineties. She was Storm by name and nature.
Never warmed to her name to be honest

pearldeodorant · 06/05/2019 00:41

No

Butteredghost · 06/05/2019 00:59

I like it.

Sparklysunflower · 06/05/2019 07:32

Storm? ⛈ ☔️

What an odd and ugly name for a girl/woman!

BendydickCuminsnatch · 06/05/2019 07:33

There’s a CBeebies (and now I think itv??) presenter called Storm. At first I was Hmm but as with all names you get over it and it ends up seeming perfectly normal.

OVAgroundWOMBlingfree · 06/05/2019 07:33

Nay

dementedpixie · 06/05/2019 07:33

That's my cat's name

Saisong · 06/05/2019 07:33

Forever associated with that Tim Minchin piece.

PlatypusLeague · 06/05/2019 07:37
