Francis Rossi.
Sucessfull!!

MsPavlichenko · 30/09/2019 17:10

Incredible blue eyes and incredible voice.

Pipandmum · 30/09/2019 17:13

i think of St Francis or a mild mannered studious boy.

catlady3 · 30/09/2019 17:13

Likes Bacon?

Lavenderblues · 30/09/2019 17:18

He's got brown eyes and dark blonde hair. He likes broccoli.

ilovemykids5 · 30/09/2019 17:20

He is ginger with freckles and glasses. He’s lanky and is interested in train spotting and nature. He collects dead butterfly specimens which he keeps framed on his bedroom wall. He’s never had a girlfriend but his mum still holds out hope.

YES like this

Lavenderblues · 30/09/2019 17:42

He's tall!

DontCallMeShitley · 30/09/2019 18:28

He has thick fair hair with a good wave to it, intelligent, nicely spoken and reliable. He will find a partner called Frances and they will be happy ever after.

VenusClapTrap · 30/09/2019 18:48

I just think of the little Francis who is a friend of dd. Very sweet child, funny and popular.

Goingbacktokansascity · 30/09/2019 18:49

I know a Big Frank, jolly, happy child 😂

Icantthinkofanewname87 · 30/09/2019 19:02

Tall and skinny and awkward. His mum calls him ‘Franny’ in a very posh voice. He doesn’t have many friends because he’s so nervous. I imagine he has one chubby best friend and they build model trains together.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 30/09/2019 19:12

Short, basin haircut, hand-knitted jumpers. Reads Private Eye. Listens to music on vinyl. Overthinks things. Thinking about getting out of the miniature war-gaming scene sometime soon...

Sparklypurpleunicornsaremyfav · 30/09/2019 20:50

I knew an adult Francis who was known by Frank, didn't know for ages that was his actual name.
He was American, tall, dark with glasses olive skin and incredibly successful and high up in the company he worked for

BoggiesBonnieBelle · 30/09/2019 20:51

Roman Catholic. Goes to church with his parents - might sing in the choir. A nice boy, polite and friendly. His teachers at Our Lady Primary School like him.

OJZJ · 30/09/2019 21:55

"Francis.....OOOOHHH FRAAAN-cissss"
Deadpool skipping gaily along...

Rachelover60 · 30/09/2019 21:57

Nice. Frank is the diminutive. My father in law was Francis/Frank and a cousin, both good people, strong.

waltzingparrot · 30/09/2019 22:15

Lanky. His mum buys him jeans one size too big, so he has to belt them and they end up all concertinaed at the back. Very noticeable because he always tuck his turtle neck jumper in.

Paintedmaypole · 01/10/2019 07:37

I think of St Francis, so gentle, studious likes nature and animals. I would like to use it but wouldn't because I don't like names that are used for both sexes ( Frances sounds almost the same). A girl at school didn't like being called Frances because she got called Fanny. I imagine a good looking dark haired boy.

AuntieStella · 01/10/2019 07:43

He's either the Pope, or the fron man t of Status Quo. Both definitely Catholic

AverageMummy · 01/10/2019 09:25

Red hair, freckles & loves birds ??? Wtaf?
I just hear a boy’s name Grin

Rachelover60 · 01/10/2019 15:53

Yeah, Francis Rossi. That takes me back to when the Rossi ice cream vans played 'Pictures of Matchstick Men' one summer. I am a great fan.

Anyway, in the old days people thought Frank Sinatra was pretty cool and I suppose he was.

St Francis of Assisi is a nice thought.

Redwinestillfine · 01/10/2019 15:55

I love it, it was our second choice.

Justonemorecupoftea · 01/10/2019 16:29

I am very amused by some of your answers! My teenage Francis likes being called Frankie. He is strong, feisty, funny, has a wicked sense of humour and a dazzling smile that will get him anywhere. He has a steady stream of very lovely girlfriends. He is also messy, loud and doesn’t care what people think about him. I wouldn’t have him any other way and I LOVE his name!

Rachelover60 · 01/10/2019 17:50

'Frankie' is very popular now, I like it too (from Francis or Franklin). It's a cool and friendly sort of name.

Alyssum34456 · 02/10/2019 08:13

Cute but dont like Frankie or Frank as nn
