Arlo
Marley
Indie
Ziggy (Ezekiel on BC)
Sasha

Our favourite is Ziggy by far, but we also keep coming back to Indie and Sasha. I know these names aren’t to everyone’s taste but these are our final choices so please choose your favourite. Thank you.

I really like Indie, it's cute and I don't think it's over used as a popular choice atm.
Ziggy is also adorable, funnily enough my dad suggested it to me last week (struggling to pick a girls name and due in 2 weeks) it's the first time I've seen it put out as an option here.

Not keen on the other 3 sorry.

Arlo is great. It's the only one I can see working for a grown man, but I guess children grow into their names. Smile

The were all possibilities for naming my brothers dog. Wouldn’t use any on a human

CassianAndor · 01/07/2019 16:11

Sasha

AverageMummy · 01/07/2019 16:12

Arlo is ok the others are awful but obviously it’s about what you love not me

Myhipsdolie · 01/07/2019 16:16

Would Ezekiel be better for Ziggy? Or maybe Isaac or Zachary. I’d put that on the BC and use Ziggy as a nick name but he could always come back to his BC name if he wanted to?

Ziggy should be Sigmund or Zigmund - no??

Myhipsdolie · 01/07/2019 16:19

We don’t like Sigmund or Zigmund, but have been looking at different places that suggest Ezekiel etc

Love Ziggy and if it’s your clear favourite then surely it’s a no brainer? I like all of your longer options too, Zachary works really well!

Myhipsdolie · 01/07/2019 16:41

I think we have decided on Zachary nn Ziggy

Love it!

thelonearranger · 01/07/2019 17:11

I love Ziggy, we will go with it if we have a boy. I also like Indigo for a boy too.

Icklepup · 01/07/2019 17:35

I would have said Ezekiel nn Ziggy but Zachary is cute too

Cbeebiesrehab · 01/07/2019 18:37

Definitely Ziggy and with a BC name too it’s perfect!

Owlbert · 01/07/2019 19:33

Ezekiel nn ziggy is fabulous!

Stravapalava · 01/07/2019 19:43

Head says Arlo.
Heart says Ziggy.

Spookydot · 01/07/2019 19:48

Love Ziggy with either of your suggestions on BC, my second fave Indie.
It’s good to have a couple you like as when he arrives he may just “suit” one more than the other Smile

Sadie789 · 01/07/2019 19:53

Ziggy is also on our list but I do worry it’s a bit out there. Maybe not reading these comments.

I like Sasha - there were very good looking male twins in my school called Sasha and Mischa. They got away with it because they were good looking and exotic. I also had an Indian friend who used Sasha instead of his full Indian name. It suited him too.

There are lots of girls and dogs about called Marley so it doesn’t appeal as a boys name.

Arlo just makes me think of WAGs and Towie people.

Indie again I see as more of a girls name.

mamaoffourdc · 01/07/2019 20:08

I have a dd indie

BikeRunSki · 01/07/2019 20:18

Ziggy -Ezekiel is fabulous!

MikeUniformMike · 01/07/2019 20:25

Arlo - not my taste but popular on here
Marley - no
Indie - it's a girl, no. Indy is better. Short for Inigo perhaps?
Ziggy (Ezekiel on BC) - yes, why not
Sasha - girl (yes I know male Sasha but I still think it;s a girl's name)

Fatkins · 01/07/2019 21:33

Ziggy / Ezekiel is great. Ziggy / Zachary also nice.

Tillygetsit · 01/07/2019 22:43

Massive Bowie fan here so it has to be Ziggy! ⚡
