I have taught a Prince before. His parents were Black African, I’m not sure which country exactly.

I would think the parents had delusions of grandeur.

I would think he was of African origins. Not sure exactly which African countries but some have the custom of English virtues/ titles for names, like Princess, Mercy, Wisdom, Ernest, Beauty etc

NationMcKinley · 09/07/2019 09:45

I’ve worked with several Princes and a Princess. All of black African heritage. Also a Godson and a King. I like it.

I'd think maybe I've met a bigger fan than me which I didn't think was possible! 💜

Dollywilde · 09/07/2019 09:55

That one day the child would want to change their name, so they’d be known as the DC Formerly Known As Prince...

A dog or parents trying to be unique

starfishcoffee · 09/07/2019 10:15

I would think of Prince. I love the name and wanted to use it as a middle name for DS but DP did not feel the same way. Grin

Gustavo1 · 09/07/2019 10:20

I like it but I don’t know if I could use it. I always imagine myself with my pram on the school run, saying the name out loud to other parents. That usually tells me how confident I am in a name choice

summerofladybird · 09/07/2019 10:40

I'd wonder what on earth you were thinking of. It's ridiculous.

Disfordarkchocolate · 09/07/2019 10:43

Of the musician. Then as an African name and finally Peter Andre and Katie Price who had a princess. Ooh, and then Major Major Major Major because we're watching Catch 22 at the minute. All fairly logical for me.

Wolfiefan · 09/07/2019 10:45

Purple Rain. Grin

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 09/07/2019 10:45

Little red corvette...

diddlediddle · 09/07/2019 10:49

Prince is the name of an Alsatian to my ear.

Please god don't call a child it!

Buddyelf · 09/07/2019 11:04

I would wonder if the surname was Kardashian or West Grin

clpsmum · 09/07/2019 11:21

@BarryBarryTaylor do it! Or paisley for a girl! Love your DD and DH!
Or call him nate, if he's a boy.
Lmfao @DC formerly known as Prince!
