What do you think of this name?

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I hope that’s a first and middle name. Hyphenated names are soooo common!! If you were in my social circle, you’d be excommunicated.

BadHairDyeDay · 07/09/2019 20:57

A bit try hard if you ask me

BabloHoney · 07/09/2019 21:01

Quite nice but very popular these days, I think they’d be a few in her class. How about Stinker The Big instead?

Frith2013 · 07/09/2019 21:46

I prefer it to Margo and Wren.

Frith2013 · 07/09/2019 21:46

Have you thought about Byg Stynker?

ABitOTT · 08/09/2019 07:36

Hyphenate it to Big-Stinker. I hear hyphenated names are very popular on MN

DieCryHate · 08/09/2019 07:40

It's nice but getting really popular here. I'm a teacher and I've had 17 in my class this new school year.

Large whiffer is the Gaelic version and less used. Any family history to justify it?

Whenaretheholidaysover · 08/09/2019 07:42

I know two.

Cara200 · 08/09/2019 07:43

I wanted it for my youngest but it just doesn't go with our last name.

Clangus00 · 08/09/2019 07:46

I don’t like it, but it’s your child so if you and dad like it, you go right ahead!
😂

tommycockles · 08/09/2019 07:48

Does it go with your other children's names OP?

I only know one Big Stinker and his sibling is Keith. That's lovely when written of a Christmas card.

Scarlett555 · 08/09/2019 07:52

I don't like it sorry, but only because all the Big Stinkers I know are arrogant arseholes.

If you love it then go for it!

maryberryslayers · 08/09/2019 07:54

There's 5 of them in DS's class, so common!

We waited until he was born and decided Poo Boy was more appropriate.

WingBingo · 08/09/2019 09:31

I’m put off because I went to school with one and she wasn’t very nice.

4storytoy · 08/09/2019 19:39

It’s a naughty boy name so I wouldn’t use it.

diddlediddle · 08/09/2019 21:31

I'm not keen on boys names that end in "er".

What about Big Stinky / Big Stinko?

Also not keen on unisex names but each to their own.

joystir59 · 08/09/2019 21:34

I prefer Little Shit Head which is what the dog gets called regularly

FredaFrogspawn · 08/09/2019 21:35

It’s a bit.. well... American almost - what’s wrong with Maximus Odour. I heard one of those being called for in Waitrose by his nanny and thought what a nice name.

joystir59 · 08/09/2019 21:35

Or Little Shit, its softer and cuter than Big Stinker

MikeUniformMike · 08/09/2019 21:37

Did you mean Biggs Tinker?

StudentHelp · 08/09/2019 21:39

Don't saddle them with the initials BS (bullshit), it's just not fair

whenweallfallasleep · 08/09/2019 21:48

It's lovely but I think it's on the rise. There's 5 in the playgroups I take DS too.

What about making it more unique, Big Stinker-Mae or something?

Frith2013 · 08/09/2019 22:47

@whenweallfallasleep

Surely Big Stinker-Rae?

Topseyt · 09/09/2019 16:21

Love it. Go for it.
