Thaddeus and Balthazar

[SleepingStandingUp]

My lovely possibly boy matching twins.

Yes????

Alternative TV show Balthazar;

Yes

He was a cool balthazar

@Rufusthebewilderedreindeer I ADORE Zachary and Zachariah but DN is likely to be shrotend to Zak so it feels weird

@Kanga83 Atticus and Cassius is in the list

@AssangesCat what Rufus said. I decided to not derail my thread

Please don't do this to your children.

Thaddeus is alright for me, Balthazar on a cv sounds too much like an immigrant though.

Oh no you didn't just post this!!!

Zachary is ds2 middle name

I think we should have gone with it as his first name

He would definitely have been a Zak though

Butty I prefer yours

@Pinkyponkcustard OK there's thinking my name choices are crap, and then there's just rudeness.

@buttyblahblah DH vetoed Sam and Dean and Jared and Jenson.

Zebedee, Zeb or zed for short

Simple me -but how do you even say Balthazar? In my regional accent it sounds ridiculous! The other name that I've never heard of either seems better though. I now live in a very mc area of south east and have yet to hear either of those names.

I suggested Zebediah

How about Balonz?

@Mummyshark2018 balthazar is phonetically pronounced - Bal tha zar. Not sure if it sounds any did in your accent

I know of a baby Thaddeus (North!) I quite like it and it has reasonable nickname potential, also think Tadeusz (sp?) is a common polish name so not too out there.

Balthazar seems harder to pull off and together does sound very try hard!

@Eaudearove only e er heard it in here, is it actually a real name?

Am i the only one who remembers Balthazar Getty from lord of the rings? (He must have had a few 8nterviews in smash hits mag circa 1989 (ish!!)

Nope I remember him skinny wasnt he in young guns 2 as well

I had a bit of a thing for Balthazar Getty too.

@SleepingStandingUp how about Misha and Dmitri instead? On the plus side the racist commenter wouldn't be happy.

I think something easily shortenable is important though, at some point you will probably be shouting for them in a park. Balt and Cas would be great, I hope I live near you and one hear the immortal words, "Balthazar and Castiel get back here right now!".

Sorry hun if you find me rude. Not a friends fan eh?

Thing is they are going to be real, actual breathing people who have to go to school, and introduce themselves at parties and get jobs!

Can you really see yourself yelling both of those names in soft play? Stand by your back door now and yell them up the garden.

@buttyblahblah I'll let you know what park we frequent when they're 5 haha

@Pinkyponkcustard I'd hardly be considering names I can't imagine using would I?? 🙄

Balthazar is the coolest name ever. It's going to be my grandson's name.

My kids are teenagers and a long way off having kids (I bloody hope!) but I've told them Balthazar will be the name.

Luckily they are supernatural fans so have agreed. For now.

I'm not actually a supernatural fan, I just love the name!

Thaddeus I'm not so keen on, sorry!

@buttyblahblah DH already knows if Misha Collins knocked on our door I’d be off😂

I think it's just what sounds good to you. I have DC with one biblical name and a flower. I would still much rather shout Cas and Balt than Jayden and Kayden.

DC are primary age but at different schools. Cas and Balt would fit in at one without any problem at all, might be more unusual at the other school though.

I've met Misha Collins. At comic con in May. It was my teenagers birthday present.

He winked at me. A big wink. It was quite disconcerting actually. He probably loves me. 🤷‍♀️

I am completely at the both of them! They are a bit, erm, pretentious? (Ducks for cover)

@McShakey you're only human!
