Apologies, yes, I was thinking Thor was the god of war. My mistake.

Did anyone else have a Suntan Tuesday Taylor Doll in the 80's?

JollyGiraffe12 · 30/03/2020 12:33

I actually really love it but I would be so embarrassed to introduce myself to someone as Tuesday. Save it for a future pet! Grin

bananamonkey · 30/03/2020 12:33

I’ve always loved it but not brave enough to use it

Cristmaseve96 · 30/03/2020 12:34

I actually love it.
With such an unusual name, you’re going to have polarising opinions. At least it’s not something dull as paint like Amelia or Isla.

florascotia2 · 30/03/2020 12:36

yourstanding very easy mistake to make - so many Norse gods have some connection with fighting.

HexagonsHecateAndHecuba · 30/03/2020 12:38

@mbb1 I did!! Just like this one

I like Tuesday as a name - would use it as a middle name though

Can anyone else remember Tuesday Newman in Bunty comic? It think she was a gymnast ( I’m really showing my age now!).

Peachbubble · 30/03/2020 13:09

I like it

crazyquadmum · 30/03/2020 13:26

I love it

abstractzebra · 30/03/2020 13:32

It makes me think of Miranda, when she was trying to get a parcel delivered. Tuuuuuuesday!

Thank you all! Interesting to read these. I’m surprised so many like it, I thought I’d be torn to shreds! 😂

There is no one called Tuesday in the Addams family.

It is an unusual name but my friend is an adult Tuesday who is a really lovely person and so I associate the name with loveliness Smile

manicinsomniac · 31/03/2020 01:35

I like it.

Rachelhaydenberk1 · 31/03/2020 03:37

I actually really like it!

HungryForSnacks · 31/03/2020 04:03

I went to school with a girl called Mardi, which is French for Tuesday. I always thought it was nice.

riotlady · 31/03/2020 04:11

I love it but not sure I’m brave enough to use it!

MotherOfAllNameChanges · 31/03/2020 04:52

Noooooooooooooook

HappydaysArehere · 31/03/2020 05:08

Sorry. Don't care for it but perhaps if she is born on a Tuesday.......

kirkandpetal · 31/03/2020 05:34

Sheesh people, no one is saying there was a Tuesday in The Addams Family. It's more that it reminds them of the fact there is a little girl named after a day of the week in it (ie. Wednesday) and it feels a bit odd to them.

Honestly, I don't mind it - I've seen weirder/dafter name suggests on here. I just wouldn't myself. To me, it suggests an arty, witty, flaky type of adult.

Astronica · 31/03/2020 06:09

Yay. I really like it.

DoctorBambino · 31/03/2020 09:08

Love it

bridgetreilly · 31/03/2020 09:09

Right. Sounds like she'd be Wednesday Addams younger sister. Which... wouldn't be my ideal in naming a child.
