Thoughts?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Very popular if that bothers you?
It’s not a favourite of mine but it’s nice enough. Prefer Theodore to Theo.

Mollie3 · 01/08/2019 21:51

Theodore and Theo for short? It means divine gift what a lovely name

Poetryinaction · 01/08/2019 21:53

Yes very popular. It's ok.

Handsmaid · 01/08/2019 21:57

Like it

Sophronia · 01/08/2019 22:03

Very popular and trendy. I think it will date.

FenellaMaxwell · 01/08/2019 22:05

I like Theodore, but less keen on Theo.

user1493494961 · 01/08/2019 22:05

Nice name, I don't think it will date. Hi

user1493494961 · 01/08/2019 22:07

Don't know where the random Hi came from but Hi anyway!

Pippilangstrumpfi · 01/08/2019 22:35

Very very popular and likely to date badly soon.

Militantmartha · 02/08/2019 12:14

I hear this name all the time! It's lovely but where I am in south east extremely popular

daisypond · 02/08/2019 12:26

I like it. It’s a classic name, so I don’t think it’ll date particularly, though all names go in cycles.

ZuzuMyLittleGingersnap · 02/08/2019 13:24

Like Theo a lot.

dontticklethetoad · 02/08/2019 13:26

I have one and have only just met another for the first time (he joined our school, the year below my son). We are SE.

Goostacean · 02/08/2019 13:28

Love love love it. But too popular for me to use it. Very sad, as am 20 odd weeks with DS2!

Cathyheathcliff · 02/08/2019 14:30

Love Theodore with Teddy or Theo as a nickname but agree it is very popular now. It's up to you if that would be an issue or not

Josiefuzz · 03/08/2019 20:06

We liked it but midwife put us off as she said every boy called Theo or Leo

Yogagirl123 · 03/08/2019 20:09

I love it, I wouldn’t say it was overly popular.

imtheonlyupsieone · 03/08/2019 21:37

Mega mega popular

DramaAlpaca · 03/08/2019 21:42

Theo is OK, but I don't like the full version.

Pippilangstrumpfi · 04/08/2019 08:07

I like Theodore. It sounds elegant.

I don't like Theo, it's become so common and overused. I hear it shouted a lot.

FenellaMaxwell · 04/08/2019 13:39

Also, I’m put off Theo because lots of people can’t pronouncd it properly and it sounds like Feo.

pontiouspilates · 04/08/2019 13:48

I've always liked Theo/Theodore but they are both very popular around here, not to mention that in the local estuary accent it's more often than not pronounced 'Feo' which sounds awful!

Pippilangstrumpfi · 04/08/2019 13:54

Feo is really awful Shock
